i dont think this car will ever see a SC. if they do go with something it would be the 2.0T in the GXP for 2008. the G5 will be a coupe only here in the US they want have a 4 door as of now..

Everything is the same on both models, but the 07' Cobalt has the silver finish on the interior.

You can order different trim pieces from Pontiac to "spice up your interior" (that's what the website calls it). So basically you could order that carbon for your Cobalt, or any of the other choices (probably the crazy blue or carbon fiber you can get on the Torrent).

on a side note, I havn't forgotten about your ketchup chips dude - just been busy with work.

Beautiful car! I didn't even think they started production yet, much less delivered to dealers! It's clean, man, real nice car. Good luck on it.

I want that steering wheel...and that shifter. they look so much better than the ones on the Cobie.

The 2.4ss has that same shifter. Base models got that all black one.

The sales manager at the local dealership told me they will have the sc model in the fall when they plan on getting their first runs at the G5.

Yeah, that's mine, it's sorta like a rubber compound or something. The numbers on the shift pattern marking have almost completely worn away already.

I find that the public in general (including dealers) knows absolutely nothing about the 2.4's...

Not in the 2007 model year. If the 2.0 DI turbo does come to the G5, it will also go in the Cobalt as well.

It would cost GM too much money to use the turbo in one and the s/c in the other. It'll be both turbo or both s/c.

there is no cost diffrence, they will offer it in the solstice. It's just GM's way of competeing with the entire market. Turbo G5, Supercharger Cobalt. It's not weird for a company to do that. Toyota offers a Turbo Echo in Europe the Vitz RS

So will those be FWD or RWD? The way the engine sits in the Solstice is difficult to put in our cars. Like to see it though.

How do you figure there is no cost difference? Both cars are built at the same plant on the same assembly line that currently puts 3 different powertrain configurations in. To retool the plant to add another engine and then only put it in the top of the line G5 models would cost GM money.
