Final Decisions On The Cobalt.

So after a bunch of you guys saying I'm either going to die or wreck it

I've made my decision. My dad works at GM so I'm stuck in only GM cars. Not that it's a bad thing just say'n. (Other than an SS, it would be a Solstice or Sky, Maybe G6 GXP)

Most people have said a supercharged would be better because less power, but others say turbocharged because it would be better in the long run and its overall better.

I have to keep this car through high school and possibly through college assuming nothing happens.

So here's what I'm thinking.

Cobalt SS 07' Supercharged and just changing head lights, rims, caliper color, pedders, air intake, tune, possibly stage it, and new tires.

Also, if I got a supercharged, (My uncle has a Callaway Z06 Supercharged and when you step on it all you hear is supercharger, no joke, and I love that sound.) could I make it mostly pure supercharger and change the exhaust to like MPx?

Just what's a better buy if I get one soon. Insurance isn't a big deal. PS - I pay half (I have 7k) and for any mods so don't flame on how I don't deserve one.

the turbo in my opinion is the one i would get if u can afford it. i LOVE my supercharger sound to but for the performance id get out of the turbo id rather have that. i have an 06 supercharged balt and i put close to $1500 dollars in my exhaust setup/intake setup and on top of that i wanna get zzp's stage 3 kit which will bring me to maybe a little above what the turbo cobalt is stock. my other reason would be that the turbo cobalt has the diamond shaped grille instead of the horizontal lines. i took my supercharged cobalt grille out for the turbo cobalt just because the turbo cobalts grille is sex and i dont like my stock one at all. but yea. check out my cardomain by clicking my link on the bottom of this post and you can see how my car was and how it is now. theyre both sweet cars and youll fall in love with either one. if you dont care about performance get whichever one YOU like

Hey josh...sent you a PM. Im from the same area, to really sound the supercharger whine a intake will help..I have a stock airbox right now, I can hardly hear it. Plus, dont listen to those people, I got that too..I got mine and didnt even know how to drive it, but I learned, and driving a 5 speed is WAY better than automatic
