I am wondering if anyone has a Crystal Red Cobalt SS, who lives in/near Saskatoon, that would be willing to let me see it.

I am planing on buying a 2010 Cobalt SS, and right now I can't decide if I want Victory Red or Crystal Red. I have never actually saw a Crystal Red SS yet, so I would like to see one to help me decide.

Go check out SMP, I test drove their Crystal Red and their site says it's still in their inventory (stock # 10-811). Ask for Garry Lemon, tell him Murray Loudens boy sent you haha. He quoted me $21k if that helps.

Wow... a lot less than what we paid back in the day.

I did go to SMP, but the Crystal Red wasn't on the lot, it was on one of their other lots. My parents have delt with Dan Barrett, so that's probably who I'll be going through. As of right now, I was told around $23,000 to $24,000 but I was going to bargin as I'm waiting for my dad to get back from up north. I'll definatly mention the $21k.

I hope you didn't drive the crap out of the car. If you did, more of a reason to lower the price. How much miledge was on it when you test drove it?

$21K is well bellow cost.

It is actually Greg Lemon you will want to speak to. He is a great guy to deal with.

I know when my dad and I went to SMP, I asked about test driving and 09 SS, and the saleman that I was talking said he'd have to come along. He than asked if there was anyone my dad has delt with before, so he said Dan. Dan put on the plate, gave me the keys, and said just don't blow the motor, than he went back inside. So because of him doing that, I think I'll probably go with him.

ColeMart

Well...I decided to go with the Crystal Red. I guess there still isn't a Crystal Red SS in Saskatoon, but now there is one close by. Now all it needs is window tint and a highrise! So if anyone around saskatoon wants to sell/swap their highrise, give me a shout.

I get to pick up the car tommorrow. I have to wait for the undercoating, paint protectant, and corrossion (how ever you spell that) module to get put on. I was told around noon. I hope I'm able to go to sleep tonight.

Dan Barret?
Tell him that Tyler says 'Hi'.



And yeah, he's a pretty relaxed salesman. He did the same thing with me. Tossed me the keys and said 'have fun'.

TheCaptain

lol window tint. Have fun with that if your thinking of putting it on the front driver/passenger...

bigrroberto

2x lol

denlou

How much did you end up paying? I thought $21k was a pretty damn good deal, considering I paid $19,900 (taxes in granted) for a new 2006 Pontiac G5 Pursuit SE.

Lemon even took me into the sales managers office trying to tell me that the manager wants to meet every customer, but the reality was he just wanted to get me to write a cheque for $21k lol.

Projekt

21k is not below cost, considering i paid 22k and the cost on my vehicle was 16k

ColeMart

I will NEVER tint the driver and front passenger windows. I just want the rear passenger windows, and the very back window tinted. I got the car for $24,500. I brought up the $21,000, and Dan just said WHAT? That is way below cost. Oh well. As long is the car is good to me and I love it. That's all that matters. It beats the $31,000 or $32,000 Civic Si a friend of mine got. I don't what he all got done to it (undercoating for sure, I think that might be it). You guys can say what ever you want about this, but by the time I got out the door, it cost me $30,000. I got paint protection, corusion module, undercoating, extended warranty, the 5 year tire replacement thing. Those sure add up quick. For a MSRP of almost $30,000, I did fairly good.

Congrats on the new toy hope ya enjoy it

denlou

Bah, I shoulda kept the paper, I had the paper from SMP with the quote.

ColeMart

That could of been handy. Dan just couldn't believe that someone was offered $21,000 for an SS.

On a side note, where is the best place to get the rear windows tinted?

TheCaptain

Sharp auto did a fair job on my cobalt. Ziebart in Regina did an outstandingly perfect job on my SRX!

denlou

What is now Tint Center did my tint on the last car, I liked it.

ColeMart

I know my dad suggested sharp auto, and so did Dan. I also need a place that does rock chips too . Damn suv's with off road tires. Had the car for 2 days. I had a new windshield on my '91 Cavalier Z24 for 2 years and not one single rock chip.
Thanks for telling me about the place in Regina, but I would rather got to Saskatoon. I only live a halfish hour out, compared to 3 hours from Regina.

I am also curiouse to know, if the rear brake problem got fixed on the 2010 SS's or is that still exsistant?

SKCobalt

the stripe shop did mine in Regina. I was really impressed with how well the dot matrix turned out. They did a really good job!

Saskdeltas

i heard Tom @ Pro tint does very good work in Saskatoon

ColeMart

I got 3 questions. 1) Do they also fix rock chips, 2) Where are they located (I will phone first to set up an appointment, but it'll be nice to know where they are), 3) How much does it cost for tint there?
