i dunno bout the silver.. when i took a look at it it was just ok. black is gonna show scrathes and lil dents so easily. plus it sucks to clean it every day. im not a big fan of white. that gets crazy dirty..lol

I personally would 100 % get White or Silver .

Given your opinions of all the colors ...a Sport Red tintcoat n/a SS would look sweet .

Heres a SS/SC in that color .

I agree with you on the black and how everything shows on it. I have the Victory Red and don't really have any "cop issues". The silver is also nice, I don't really think you can go wrong with any three of the colors you narrowed it down to. I also like the blue as well.

the victory red looks the nicest. u really dont have to worry bout it being noticable with dirt as compared to the black. blue looks kinda purple..i saw a 07 LT with the color i didnt like it at all. so its more gonna be red or silver..hmmm any one have pics to post of those 2 colors.

Rephrase my sentence.. It depends on where the sun his hitting. At night it looks like a shady purple. Anyway everybody has their favorite colors.. that's why they make different paint job :P

I faced this issue when I ordered mine. I went with the sport red metallic tint coat myself.
IMO its about the nicest looking color even if it does cost almost $300 more for it.

A few more laser blue but in 2.4L form .. This is the reason I choose this car.. Every time I see a cobalt it's either black or red..









If these are a bit blurry I apologize, they were taking with cellphone after washing the car. I didn't have my digital camera at the time :P You can also click on my camera icon to see what it looks like during the winter after just one week of daily driving and snow, salt and all that crap TurboWax in the summer FTW !

Heres my car. Well its the exact copy anyway, sorry I have no way to download the pics my wife lost the damn cable for the camera. Anyway this is what my SS sedan in sport red looks like.





Hope you like it, I know I do. Its the only SS sedan around here AND the only Cobalt in this color around here too! I don't know about you but I don't like to be like everyone else.

I am a HUGE Fan of the Lazer Blue Mettalic. I was sold on the color alone.

I have black, which is the best color, but it seems the best color to get (that hides dirt, swirls) is silver. My Grand AM GT is silver.

Well it's going to be your car. And you are going to be driving it. Choose the color you fell more comfortable with. If you think you might get bored of Laser Blue after a while, go for red. And just to let you know, whatever the color is going to be, you are still going to find it dirty like hell
