Sweet! I have yet to see a G5 GT in person. We have a 2.2 G5 on the lot but I hope we get a GT soon.

Good looking car. Are the wheel cetercaps the same size as the Cobalts? If so, I might trade somebody for them.....

Also, i actually think the car is better suited as a pontiac rather than a chevy. For some reason the body looks like a pontiac.

what the hell you talking about, the front facsia(& bumper) is the SAME as cobalt ss, just a different upper grill for the pontiac honeycomb style they have like on the GTO's etc. ( so yea i think it looks hot since of have orange ss/sc )

The only difference in the rear bumper is that the G5 GT has a full rear lip,where the ss/na rear lip is not strait across the bottom of it

im not sure if the trim is fake or real but i really like it. haha ill show my dad and see what he says he dont want me to do much to the car because he likes it just they way it is even if its my car. im still learning how to drive a 5 speed today is my real first day driveing the car. i have a hard time started off i stall or spin the tires into 2ec gear. one guy got right on my ass and my car rolled back and he laid on the horn so i helled to him to get of my ass then. but i love this car so much once i no how to drive it it will be even more fun lol.

dude don't worry about shiftin, you'll get it in a week... Had the same problem, din't know how to drive a manual but i still wanted to test drive the car it was crazy lol... Like the car, and about the sticker take it out with a power washer, or just go to a car wash and ask the people to take it off for you. "Just keep in mind, let go of the clutch SLOWWWLLY!!!"

i got the sticker of with a hair dryer it looks alot nicer without it. then i put some polish on it and ill do it a few more times then wax it and get it ready for winter so it dont get all crappy over the winter. lol i keep leting the clutch out to fast so then when the car goes to stall a slam the gas and the tires will spin and the car will take off. i have thrown my dad into the seat so many times he dont want to drive with me anymore lol. i still hate hills but its my sec day with the car so im geting a little better
