Wow. That's all I can say. Feel free to ask me any questions...the car was amazing. These are links to High Resolution 4mp pictures. I went out and bought .mac today for $99 just so I could host these. Hope you all like them! Gallery#1 is exterior pics and has 27 pictures. Gallery#2 is Interior pics and oddly enough 27 pictures as well. So that really adds up to 54 pictures but I deleted one and 55 sounds so much better. Here's the main menu, cheers vendian:

From the looks of it you may be able to navigate to the other gallery at the top of the page. All you guys need to know is that that car is awesome...

nice bro thanx for all the pics!

mcz34man

awesome pictures man!!! they answer a lot of questions people have had in the past and even now. congrats man, any clue who bought it?

Vendian

No I don't know who bought it, and I did try to answer a ton of questions I had heard people talking about. I tried to take pictures of all the things that people were wondering about. The coin thing on the side of the steering wheel, the middle armrest, the front of the car shot from a low angle, the exhaust being chrome, the rear-wing, etc.

Ah man Im so amped right now !!!!!!!!!!!! I never knew the battery was in the trunk, now adding my 2 Alpine 12' subs will be all the more easier. thats my exact car but I got regular seats with red inserts. thanks !!!!!!!!

Vendian

I found out about the battery being in the trunk awhile ago so I knew to look for it. I don't know **** about car stereo, but I knew that would be easier to wire with it back there...so that's pretty cool. I thought that pioneer speaker in the trunk was pretty big stock as it is too. I hope it's not some option.

HotSauce

The Pioneer 10" sub is standard with the SS/SC

Vendian

Sweet.

Wow, 55 pictures! Nice job!
I bet all those customers in the show room wore like: “WTF is up with that guy?” I was at the auto show tonight and took a ton as well

Vendian

Acutally they didn't really care. There were some people looking at me weird that were buying cars but the salesmen were playing basketball in the corner. Talk about salespeople overkill. There were like another 15 in the parking lot in groups. I think the guy was a little dissapointed when I got out telling him I wanted to see the SS S/C. He just lead us to the door and left, lol. So all in all it was cool. I just took out my camera the second I got there and went at it. P.S. thanks for putting this on the front page.

I've encountered a few bored-looking salesmen at dealerships before, but I've never seen a salesman basketball game

philco_3

so is there 2 batteries in the car then? or just easier to place it in rear? Be funny if u need to get a jump.

JonyyB

just in the trunk. Its to even out the weight distribution

ss xtreme

hi thanks for the pic's, man thats a big trunk, u can put big speakers back there. to bad im not into systems anymore, i would of put 3 12's in that trunk. i dont know my friend said if i don't have a system in my car u wont like it because u are used to the base don't, get me wrong i like my system in my car but, im 22 i think instead of puting a grand into a system like i did in my truck i thilnk i should make the cobaltss fast. alpines are the best well i got to get up at 4 am for a store meeting at home depot good night thanks for the awsome pics well its at 5 but i got to get up at 4 lol life is great huh lol

CoolCobalt_NY

Thanks for all the pictures..... Even tho I'm getting the LS COUPE... It's ALMOST THE SAME THING...

I took a good look at the Bat. in the trunk, the trunk, back seats.... and.........


I like it...!! Just a question tho.... Was that battery strapped down?.. or help in place with a bracket? or Both??

Vendian

If you enlarge the picture it looks like its strapped down and bolted down. Hooray.

rxxxryan

awesome pics....I have some pics of a blue SS from the toronto autoshow...not nearly as good as these....does anyone know where I can put them?

cobaltsslvr

wow i feel stupid. I just noticed it takes mobil 1 oil! sweet!

keeper51

cool i didn't know the battery was in the truck on the Cobalt, i know the battery is in the truck on the Red Line quad coupe and there is another ternimal under the hood, so u can boost your car from either side. Those are great pics, thanks a lot, can't wait to take one out and test drive it, not that it matters, i'm buying one anyways

bruff1977

What's up with the horizontal grille up front and the mesh in the back? Hope mine doesn't get this treatment.

These are truely awesome pictures thanx so much.

1. I like the placement of the antenna, *BEHIND* the sunroof.
2. I like how they didn't cover up the engine with some cheesy cover like GM has been with some cars.
3. The driving lights (sometimes called fog lights, but they aren't yellow) look sweet, good placement IMO.
4. The interior control look super cheap for a 20k car. the controls on my S10 look nicers and thats not saying much. The heater knobs look really cheap. I am dissapointed with that.
5. The plastic ebrake control looks even cheaper. That plastic weld line right down the top of it is fugly.
6. The dash as a whole looks good but that silver plastic molding sucks.
7. The gauge cluster looks nice. I am curious to what the driver info center looks like. I will miss the temp, oil, battery guages
8. The steering wheel with all the controls will be cool, never had that in a car b4.
9. Mirror with map lights also good.

All in all I wish they didn't cheap out on the controls, silver plastic dash thingy. Otherwise I think it's gonna be a great car. Love the outside.

Vendain again good job with the pictures they look great.

Vendian

As for the antenna that's the XM satellite antenna behind the sunroof. The normal antenna is on the back rear quarter panel on the right hand side. If you look at the pictures of the rear of the car you can see it. I was digging through the instructions in the glove box and noticed the car had XM. So the regular antenna is just that long one. Just in case you didn't notice.

johnkb8

how come the XM in on back of roof, and on the Sunburt SS in Canada has the XM on the front of roof, weird!! whats up with that, sure this red SS aint pre prod

HotSauce

Ive never seen the XM radio antenna on the front of the roof, always on the back and thats how the SS/SC will be, weird.

Zilla

There is no XM radio in Canada (yet) so they just use the antenna for onstar. Maybe that has something to do with it. Also, the Sunburst SS in Canada belongs to GM so it could be a pre-production/pilot.
