Every time I pull up to an SS (once once in my life have I ever seen an SS/SC) I just think about the turbo that I don't have lol.

 

how about you sig is mighty gay and you should :

 

Ya know what, man, no, it doesn't feel great when you get screwed over and dicked around and you have to settle for an LS, automatic at that, nor does it feel good when a SS/SC owner laughes at you or treats you like a lower form when you try to give him a thumbs up when driving next to him. No, it doesn't give all of us a great feeling. It gives some of us a feeling of ENVY, and makes ME ask "Why would I get dicked around and screwed and why does this guy get to have an SS/SC when i worked my ass off and did what i was supposed to do, but let me give him the thumbs up anyway...oh look...he laughed at me and sped off!" Not everyone can just go get an ss/sc right away. not all of us are fortunate like you and can get a ss/sc because we like it. Usually, we're locked into this car for a few years, and seeing as they're discontinuing the car, some of us can't just get a brand spanking new one anymore. That's not cool.

Some of us don't want a 2.4L, some of our dream cars are 2.0L, and some of us will never be able to get the damn car.

You didn't have to brag about anything. Its one thing to be proud of your car, but you're being arrogant about it.

Thank you!! +rep Dreamer.

 

well im not rich. i work a regular job and im 19 and i go to college at the same time. my car payment is 500 a month (497.12 actually). i gave up a year of college to save up as much money as i could (working in dominos at the time as a manager) to get a down payment for the car and traded in my leased base model for the cobalt. right now total everything is 27k cause i also broke the lease. so you may be giving me your thumbs up, but at least you can still afford other bills =P haha

but either way i still love this car. even tho i had to make sacrifices for it. and yeah i work my butt off to afford this car if anyone asks.

 

I like the SS/SC, but I don't get the feelings that you brag about. It costs a few thousand more, and in the end is still a low-end-of-the-market econobox. Now if a Corvette did that to me, I may spare a thought about it, but I'd also give my airplane reply. Never fails.

If you think 'affordability' is the issue, lets just say my car was paid off in cash, and my flight bill is paid off with a black credit card to the sum of $1000+ a month. Car payment? Bah.

Although, one time a SS/SC driver was talking **** to me when I was on my way to go flying. Right before the light turned green I said it loud and clear, "Go ahead and peel out, I'm going to my other ride at the airport!"

He peeled out, of course, and the next light up was the airport intersection. I made the turn into the airport, and made sure he saw it. **********.


(Of course I had to have a retarded pose and look on my face...)


BIG headset WHATTT

 

WTF I have the same Burton pullover I think. Is that the one with wings around where it says Burton??

 

Nah thats not a pullover. But it is mad comfy.

 

Whenever I goto the gym I see this nice grey GTO with a non-stock vented hood, rims, and tint.... I say to my car "don't worry in the future he'll be a weekend warrior, your still my econy car."

 

rich much? i very much think so.

 

EDIT: Quote changed.

 

Ouch ! Damn you paid too much if you ask me, just had to put my .02 cents in.. I pay way less a month for an 07 SS/SC. But glad you like your car

 

Sorry I didnt mean pullover (captain is kicking in, lol) Just a jacket, zipper and whatnot.

 

I broke a lease early. i still owed money on it. so thats why i have it at 27k



when i say rich much. you have a ******* plane dude. i dont know ANYONE that owns a ******* plane.

like holy hell. a plane...

 

I work a regular, high paying job, and have worked my ass off for the last 3 years to get that freaking car, and I still couldn't get it. I'm going off to a University, not community college, so I have to save for that too! And my education is most important to me. As I can't do my dream job unless I have it.

You can be proud of your car,a nd that you had it, but you don't need to be arrogant of it. Saying things like , "I'm proud of my car, it makes other people who may deserve the car as well feel like crap and feel worse about themselves." is a dickish thing to say. Not cool.

 

This thread is pretty gay....

When i first got in the SS I felt really small in it....If I had only known the seat went vertical...bob saggettt

 

I am that LT that gives at least a small thought about upgrading...

 

I'm out

 

this thread is gayer than Ru Paul at a hotdog eating contest

 

You've clearly never driven anything thats truely great. It will change your persective on cars once you do. My brief day or so in a 360 Modena was priceless and it really put cars in perspective for me because I've now driven everything from the biggest POS, to the best of the best. You my friend need a reality check.

Enjoy your car though and if it makes you that happy then that's great, most people go through their life and never are satisfied, if a 20k dollar car makes you satisfied then more power to you, but don't belittle others because they don't have one.

 

Thank you Dreamer, you said it a lot nicer than I did.

 

A dont know man, just because it has that horse on it doesnt mean a modena is the fastest thing out there. You truly havent seen speed then. A 900hp Supra will give you a kick in the nuts, lol. But nonetheless good post as always dreamer. Anything still up with the drive up to the north pole?

 

No problem man. My biggest pet peeve is people who talk down to others because they may not be as fortunate as them. That just drives me nuts.

I've driven a 9 second Camaro. That was pretty freaking fast. lol I still enjoyed the Ferrari more though because 180mph+ is just insane and it's surreal.

The problem getting to the Artic Ocean is getting premium fuel past Fairbanks Alaska. I think it's going to screw up the whole trip. Plus I can't do it until 2009 due to my job and 2008 being an election year. I still want to do it though and I've done quite a bit of research so when I'm able to devote a lot of time to it I have a good start.

 

Ahh, well at least your still up to it. I think it would be awesome and would be down in a heartbeat. As for gas, hmmm we can just talk Jekyl (I think thats his name) with his big truck to follow and tow a shitload of 93 behind us depending on the number of people or every cobalt can have their own little trailer of gas, lol. As for your job, I guess we shall just wait til then, lol.

 

maybe you guys didnt read my post the first time around. so heres a quote from the first page then =P

 

If only I were rich so I could wish everyone else was like me...
