My New Laser Blue SS Coupe

Well... I didn't wait for that paycheck afterall. I went to the dealer that I knew had an SS in Laser Blue Metallic this morning... and drove it off the lot.

It's a 2006 (obviously) SS coupe. The only options in it are the auto trans, sunroof, and MP3 stereo. Ebony cloth interior, power windows and locks of course, 17" wheels, and all the other standard SS features.

It's the 2.4L Ecotech. Most of you will know that already, but hey, I'm excited here! The pics below are my CarDomain pics... and they were taken on my way home from the dealer. We had some nasty snow here last night, so the roads are messy. The car was filthy by the time I took the pics, but these will have to do for a few days at least... until the snow melts and the salt's off the road.


At the dealership.


Front/side view.


Rear/side view.


Cobalt SS.


I can't wait to drive it more... I promise to get better pics when it's clean.... I just have to wait for the weather to cooperate. Let me know what you think!

PS. I'm from the Greensburg/Harrison City area of PA. It's about 25 miles east of Pittsburgh. Let me know if you're from my area.

Thank you, thank you... Yeah it's impossible to keep it clean with salt water all over the roads. I want to wash it so badly... but I know it will get just as dirty again before I even make it back home. Damn PA weather.

Congrats, that's the same dealer I got my Cavalier from back in the day. As far as washing it, if you can't do it by hand only go to touchless car washes. The paint/clearcoat on these cars scratches INSANELY easily.

Yeah, my dad and I are **** about washing our cars. We only wash by hand or brushless. Usually we only wash by hand or at a quick do-it-yourself bay just to clean it off (you know just a spray in those bay areas).

Monroeville seems like the way to go, it's pretty much a midpoint for everyone in the area.

I don't know, I'm slightly ticked off at mine since it died on me today. Hopefully it's something minor and can be fixed promptly so I can get right back to enjoying the heck out of it.
