Destroyed by a colbalt O.O

I was driving my 2000 Tiburon SE 210 Hp And i got completely destroyed by a cobalt. It was in Medicine Hat Alberta. How much HP do most of these cars have? And a question for who ever wants to respond. How much money do you have into your cobalt?

stock cobalt is 205 crank hp, but they seem to all dyno in the 220whp range so a bit underrated. Any injector and pulley and exhaust combo gets them in the 250-280whp range depending on tunes and location

haha id like to think they were that special. but if you really want one you can go to any chevy dealership

2005-2007 cobalt ss/sc will be between 12-15k maybe less i dont know
2008+ tc's are 22k fully loaded
both are great cars and id tell you the differences but im sure it will start some sort of flame war so you can look at some of the existing threads

dealers. most dealers only have 08 and 09's now the 09's are a hot item with everyone because they offer a new type of display I am sure someone will link you the 08-09's have 260 crank and 240 hp and trq at the wheels.

i thought it was 260/260 HP/TQ? i could be wrong

the SC's stopped production in 07, you could probably pick up a stock one for about 15k

LS/LT- 147HP/155 TQ(?)

SS/Sport -173HP/167 TQ

SS/SC as stated above and under rated, more like 210whp

SS/TC 260HP/260TQ but dyno's have shown some putting down the TQ number to the wheels.

chips? not for the SS/SC. if they are made, i call BS on any power boost.

in your first post you said 260 and 240. it was just confusing, that's all.

I'd go out and buy one if i were you as well lol. Somebody once said not to long ago "Tibbys are the fastest looking slowest car" And.. No offense but it's kind of true! You can get one hell of a deal on an 07 SS/SC if you look!
