Car progress?
Bad ass truck for sure, but think hard before ya do anything, think about the fact your still gonna be paying for a car you dont have sense they wont give u the full amount, and fuel think about fuel lol thats gonna be ruff! theres a few rocking around here one has 26" rims on t and is bagged. boys from NB should have seen that by now. and theres a younger guy here in sackville rocking a black one.
nice truck..but holy hell if gas kepts going up that thing will just be sitting in your yard like a lawn ornament...I would not want to have to pay for the gas for it,thats for sure
Well i called the dealership back today. They claimed the bank was giving them a hard time about this... (yea right...) So they tried to work out a few numbers which i didnt like at all...normally when you work out new numbers to make a bank happy the price goes lower. My payments would have been lower but the interest was a hell of alot higher. So i would have been paying close to the same price as to what im paying for my 370z. I suggested me trying to find someone to take my finance contract but they gave me some bs about how it will only hurt me in the end....i still like to know how...lets see...
Before interest, total amount owing on the 370z = $53,000
Price for truck = $29,000
Trade in Value = $38,000
Remaining Owing = $15,000
Total for truck = $44,000
Amount owing on car = $53,000
Balance after someone takes the contract = $0
Price of Truck = $29000
Gee... $29,000 in 5 years with a lower interest rate then what im paying for the 370z sure seems better then $44,000 in 5 years. Dealerships are retards and think they can just bullshit there way to make you buy ****.

Dude, you are on your way to some financial issues if you keep going like you are going. You just keep digging a hole of debt.
If you go ahead with the truck, you made a $15,000 mistake buying the 370z. And this will keep on rolling with every veh you purchase.

meh, i make $67k a year to drive a tank...i can do what i want with my money. I could care less about $15k.
But if you have budgeted everything out for all the different scenarios, then all the power to you to do what you want with your money. I know I do
wow he makes 67k a year out west to drive a tank, i make 42k in 6 months in nova scotia doing construction and i could make more over the off season if i was so stubborn with what i do when i work...
Seems like with them, now that they are out west making the "big bucks" and he has a 370Z and possibly buying a SRT 10 ram he is mister big shot.
how about i bring out my dads 1969 Dodge Charger and drive that around that car has been appraised at $200,000.00 and im in the will to get it. t has 900 ORIGNAL Miles on it! everything is matching numbers everything is legit, only down fall is my dad uses it as a trailor queen and when its in my name im driving it!
Sorry but no one cares what you drive. sure its nice and all as is many peoples on here made their cars. i can honestly say theres many people here, such as jerren, cobalt daddy and others who have the GM Stage 1 that will prob eat the truck, and the 370z, for god sakes my car was quicker then a 350z last summer. the truck has high hp and tq, but weighs a tone, the car is rear wheel drive but makes little hp and tq, now i dont know about ur car with the bottle but never know.
Jerrens car with a simple tune i would say is good for the 400whp mark.
and look at how much he paid.
these are guessed numbers.
28,500 for the car
1,500 for stage 1
600 for exhaust
500 for intercooler and charge pipe
that sums up to
$31,100 and you paid... 66,500 i think it was for the 370z....
Jerrens car may have some issues, but you got to remember he has alot done to it, he has the stage 1 kit, and with a little bit of work them issues will be worked out, now i honestly dont know whats wrong with it i remember somone saying something about his BPV and i dont know much about these cars to know if thats an easy fix or not. im sure he will figure it out.

Personally i dont give to ***** about compairing my car to anyone elses. I'm not going to say my car is better then jerrens or his is better then mine. If his was working right now it would have more hp, yes, i agree with that. However, how many mods does jerren or anyone else have on there car to get them that hp? I have one...cold air intakes and im at 280...who ******* cares, no one. No one cares about your ******* car im pretty sure i can speak for everyone when we r just waiting for you to finish your build on your Cobalt LS that mommy and daddy paid for, and watch it blow up. What happend to the Cobalt SS/SC you were buying and using the engine, or the Cobalt LS and using the frame, or using the 355 or whatever size engine it was, or what about the corvette engine you were going to drop into the cobalt? Unlike you, me, people on the east and west coast actualy paid for our cars...not our parents and we dont come out with bullshit lies about what we are doing to the car or make retarded ideas and not go through with it. And i bet you will come back with something like "well look at you, you change your mind what car you want, blah,blah,blah" Yea i do, but i actualy go through with it. I bad a Cobalt LS...got into a car accident, 3 months later got the SS/SC, had that for almost 2 years then got the 370z...realising i need a truck for up here i attempted to get one with alot of power. But after thinking smart, i decided to stay with the car and ill buy a beater truck when it comes time to.
Why are you even still on the cobalt forums, no one likes you chris. Your so full of **** that no one likes you on here or on other forums and you always start ****. Yea me and jerren get into it every once in awhile but 90% of the time its joking around. Anyways im done with this. Maybe before you start running your mouth chris, try thinking about what your doing to your car that mommy and daddy paid for.

What unit are you with? I use to be in 2 SVC BN in Petawawa, until I want Air Force
I never ripped on anyones cobalt chris, except yours. You wanna start ****? fine lets have it out. You are a ******* joke. You claim and think you know everything about cars but really you know very little. You make it seem like you have the best cobalt on the planet. I highly doubt your car is faster then a 350z. As i recall your transmission took a dumb and your car was only at 217whp. A 350 will put about 240~ to the wheels completely stock. And as i recall you did your dyno during the dyno day at bayers like before everyone got there cuz you were scared it would blow up. And guess what, the tranny eventually did. You have no ******* clue what you are even doing the car. You make a very poor looking and functional charge pipe or whatever you wanna call that. The first body kit you did was ******* horrible...paint didnt match, spots unpainted, paint ran in some spots.

my parents were smart and put 20,000 in a rrsp for me when i was born, i took money from the rrsp to buy my car with cash and get such a great deal, then I paid my car back in a year

yea i dynoed my car before everyone else but not because i was scared it would pop, but because i didnt wanna look like a fool if i stalled it, i dynoed it untuned infront of people with out second gear.
my tranny **** the bed on me becaue of hard second gear launching.
my charge pipe is all stainless steel and looks damn fine if you ask me.
i have many friends from this site and many from other site such as Lowmotion, Camix, JDMStyle, Custom Obsessions, and if i was "hated" im pretty sure Lowmotion would not of picked my car to be the 1st Domestic to represent Lowmotions Descision to now allow GM's Into the club

i never once said my car was better then anyone elses, but i will admit its faster then most.
I was never gonna put a LS Swap into my car, i still have the full tube chasis at my moms house with a 10 bolt rear end 355 four bolt main and turbo 400 tranny sitting in it. if i take the car and put a shell onit then so be it, if not i will make something out of it when i have time and money.
actually that ss sc me and jenn bought it, the body kit is going on her car, the S/C is going on her car, the 5 lug conversion will be on mine the black or red leather is in her car, and the rest will be parted out when i get around to it.
And i do believe i red somewhere that the GM Stage 1 makes the car something like 300whp and 300 tq, so right there with one mod jerren and everyone else with the stage 1 has more then you! in a car thats not even half the price of urs.
sorry jerren to use u as a car to match his, just urs i know the most about.
Atlease this season my car is fully built with a cyro teated tranny only thing im worried about is fuel pump and axels. i amd still waiting to upgrade them, and by the mid of this summer i will be making between 400-450whp and 300-400 tq
