I cant get another car cus i have no cosinger now ....im so disapointed in gm/chevy ....very bad move for people who bought ls's in 05
He has quite the attitude, and potty mouth. If you werent happy w/ your options when you bought the car you should have not bought a car from a company that is "****** reta**ed" and bought an import or a ford. A new car is a big investment that you should be happy with, and if your car dropped 9g's in value in a year then you got ripped b/c i only paid 12g's for my LS which means mine is now only worth 3g's? i hope not. lol, I personally think you should be banned for having a bad attitude towards your car and your fellow owners but that is me...

Isnt this ricer logic:

Better badges = better car?

But think of all the weight he saved by taking off the rear emblem and door strips. Man that has to be at least 2 pounds, maybe even 3, how much is that good for in the 1/4?

Wich leaves me to say My interior is fully stock like a ss with leather and the whole 9 yards... With that said do you think I have the right to make my car an ss?
By the same line of reasoning maybe I should have bought a 4-door Cobalt in November of 2004 when I first went in to test drive one. Then months later when the coupes started to trickle in I could rant and swear about stupid GM and how I'll never buy another American car... After all, the sales guy really wanted to sell me the ONLY Cobalt he had - a sandstone metallic 4-door that looked like it should have gone to Avis instead.

So its GM's fault he couldn't drive a stick and had to buy an automatic 2.2L, and GM sucks because of it, o......kay. Then it's also Albert Einstein fault I don't get quantum physics.

If 22 year old gurls (girls) driving real SS's are smirking at you now, what do you think they are going to due when you glue badges onto your LS ?????? Do you think it will fool them ? Putting SS badges on an LS is like stuffing a sock down the front of your pants,
when it's time to F*** ( or race) the other person will know what you did and laugh at you harder. It's your car man do what you want. Maybe be proud of what you have.

Or atleast make sure the socks are clean

When I was on the wrestling team in middle school there was a guy that did that, it came out once in the middle of a match, funniest damn thing ever.

if you got every mod made for the 2.2 it couldn't touch a 2.4. spray would probably do it... but then again, if you count how crappy the tires on the 2.2 are... i still would have a shot
