Finally got to drive a cobalt ss

Well i got free tickets to nopi in atl and decided to see what the hype was about..

first off.. holy **** i have never seen so many lambo doors in my life.. I thought to myself *if there is a god, he is throwing up by now*

anyways, onto better things.. I believe they were all stage 2 cobalt ss. *it was on an autox course*

REALLY fast course. only a couple turns.. but I loved the torque that little thing put out..

really nice, pulled well through the turns, straight line was impressive.

seats arent the best for autox but they are definatly nice for daily driving..


overall, loved the car. Definatly on my list of cars to look at when i get another car. felt alot better than my 03 civic si.

I was a honda owner, really liked the 03 civic si after i turbocharged it but it really handled like ****.

It laid down some decent torque numbers 208 at 6.5 psi ...
