bye bye Balt..MAYBE

So I am debating on selling the Balt. It’s a hard call because I have a lot of money into it and it’s a very fun car to drive. I guess I’m looking for someone to talk me into keeping it or selling it haha. If I was to sell the car I would replace it with a something else just not sure what yet. I most likely would go with a Corvette..not sure.

Well if you do sell it you will take a big hit as you will never get back what you spent on it.

Just wait a few years if you want a vette and get a used C7. Give you time to save as well.

Wait a Min! You were buying all the stuff for Your Cobalt about 2 weeks ago! Now You are saying You wanna sell it!? Why would You paid all the stuff to get Your car to go fast then sell it ? Don't make sense, cause You paid for the stuff then You will be loosing the money for all the stuff You paid for. Yeah, You can get the parts off n sell it on here or where You want to sell it. I am saying why would You want to WASTE your time for nothing. I know You might, Just keep Your car for daily driving. Save Your money to buy another BADASS car that You don't want to use it for daily.

Keep it! After you get rid of it you would probably kick yourself for getting rid of it. Just think of all the money that you have invested in your car.

I did my build back in April 2011, not 2 weeks ago. I then did add to my build but that was back in the spring of 2012. I have a 2012 Buick Regal GS as my daily driver so I dont want another daily. My Cobalt and Camaro basically just sit in the garage lol.

OH! I would sell Camaro but if it's 67-69 or BRAND NEW 1 then HELL NO! But if it's any regular kind of Camaro then I would. Then I will go for ZZP TURBO KITS with 252et. I want my Cobalt to be around 400-450 then I will be a happy MUTHAFUCKA! LMAO!

Yea I would have to see what I could even get for the cobalt. Its a 2010 with 21K miles. Not to mention fully built S256Et turbo kit, built motor and ZZP Trans. I know you never really get the modded money back but the car has it all. 505WHP of fun!

Yes I have been looking and I have found them in the $44K to $50K range with low miles less than 10,000 miles in some cases. If I am going to buy one I would want less than 10,000 miles on it.

If you could get 12k out of your cobalt, then you could get ahold of a nice c5 with around 90k miles. In fact, a c5 with 90k miles will probably outlast a brand new cobalt ss. It's amazing how cheap you can get them for, and they are bullet proof.
