Im not saying its a popularity contest just because im not winning. But it def is. do you think that its coincidence that the high posters and the guys with big turbos, tvs, or expensive wheels always win.

 

That means they put work into there car lol


Theres alot of clean cars in this month. Id hate to run for it lol

 

well generally those are they guys that have the most work done to their cars.....so..... what would prove that it is a popularity contest is if a stock cobalt with little to no work done to it, won. then you know nobody is basing it off of work done to the car

edit: beat me to it lol

 

very true. lol maybe im just jealous bc i cant afford coils and nice wheels lol

 

me either bud haha. my wheels are painted...by me...with engine paint lol all about that elbow grease!

 

I bought my kdw2 tires and they just happened to come with these wheels free so i put them on lol

 

Voted for my 3rd shift buddy....

 

you bought tires and they came with rims?? and so you jus ran them because you had them?

 

Stock wheels <3

 

a guy was selling the rims and tires both with only 500 miles on them for 400 bucks. i really only wanted the tires but he wouldnt sell them seperate and i figured id rock them and give them a chance lol

 

Call me crazy but I want to see someone put silver rims something like Forgestars F14s on your color.

 

those wud def look better than his current rim. but idk about silver maybe gunmetal

 

well when either of you decide to buy them for me ill run them lol

 

If I do that then I might as well buy my old SS back lol

 

tell mark to change your SN...it's misleading now

 

lol well then ill continue to run my not so pretty or expensive wheels lol.

 

I kinda liked the name lol

 

its funny how people always say that wen u recommend something "ill run it wen u buy it for me."
why dnt you get ur own money and buy ur own ****. im not speakin directly to u cus u obviously like ur rims but i see this alot with the cheap ppl on this forum

 

Most owners are in college and are on a limited budget....the people that do spend alot of money are your "favorites". People buy a cobalt because its cheaper than whats mostly out there like Zs,G35s,STIs,Evos. I wish more people would put thought into more mods but the economy stinks and so does peoples wallets.

 

if i ever get the car all together(lol) pretty sure i'd enter it with the lt2 16's i got on it

yeah bro, but you aint got no lsj no mo!

 

well now....

 

if this is a popularity contest i def wont win. and if its an elbow grease contest i should win by a land slide lol. in a lot of ways my build blazed the path for a ton of people. the amount if trial and error that went into making that engine what it was is beyond belief. like beck said... BLOOD, SWEAT, TEARS and TIME not to mention tens of thousands of dollars. if i knew then what i know now i coulda built a much badder engine for half the price and it would still be in my car and id be enjoying it.

 

...you...

ARE THE MAN! Hah, I do appreciate it. Needed that Germany love.

I agree, it's tough to be mad.

^This. And I think the fact that since I'm on such a tight budget and I still find ways to put work on and mod my car makes it that much more meaningful to me.

 

I'll be the first to admit I don't have much money in my Cobalt. I have some plans for it but my fortune is wrapped up in my LS2 powered '91 Camaro, my real passion. Don't get me wrong though, I love my cobalt!

 

Ya i feel you, i feel the same way about my nova exceptnfor the price part if i did it again itd cost way more lol. But like i said before if i dnt win, which it looks like i wnt, then i hope you do ur car is super cleanand like you said ithas alot of thought and time into it
