Cobalt SS/SC trade-in value

So, I've been thinking of trading in the Balt for a TC Balt or srt-4, Just wondering what people have gotten when they traded in their car, or if any dealership workers could give me a nice estimate

I have a 2006 Cobalt SS/SC G85 edition 37k Mods are GM stage II, intake and dp

I'd give the exterior a 9/10 and the interior a 10/10

I know I can use KBB but I want first hand experience, I'd be happy with an 8k trade in, but it seems kind of high

Haha nice nice, I'm obessed with srt-4s I test drove one once that was super fucked up, but i still liked it on the inside haha, theres an SS/TC near me for 16k with 10k miles which is tempting, Less problems with TC's imo

Thats stock turbo the stage2/3 toys look like this.



I would not get an 03, they don't have LSD.

I paid a little over KBB for mine. I paid $13,995 for mine. 04 43K, full AGP turbo swap, Clutch/flywheel, full bolt-ons,DSP, all gauges/sensors, wheels, suspension/etc.
I also talked to the previous owner about it. He said he only put about 13K on it in the 3yrs he owned it and it has about 6K in mods.

IDK whats in the cup holders but it's not the Mopar turbo toys. Speaking of cupholders...they are actually usable in the SRT.

Looks pretty good minus the tail lights.

AGP Turbochargers, Inc. :: SRT-4 Neon :: Turbo Upgrades :: SRT-4 AGP Stage 3 Delta/Zeta Turbo Kit Complete
There are many people that make swaps for around $1K using the Mopar stage 3 mani and the Mitsu B16G, etc and make over 400whp.

These things are easy to make power out of. I have the smaller D44 and on 22 psi I still trapped 94.8mph in the 1/8th..that's capable of 11's easily. (Know an srt-4 owner that trapped 93-94 mph in the 1/8 on streets and he ran 11.7 @ 118 on slicks) That's only on 22lbs..I'm getting a race gas tune on my Diablosport for 27-28lbs soon..

These engines are stout as hell..unfortunately the same cant be said for the trans. Alot have problems with the 3rd gear shift fork. If you look at one make sure it goes into 3rd and downshifts into 3rd smooth with out popping out. Though like I said the Srt has a good aftermarket and there are many trans options.

It has way more room than my cobalt did. I'm not really big, about 5 11 and a little over 200lbs but my brother and law is about 6 3 and he doesn't have to put the seat all the way back to drive comfortably.
