Finally Got my SS S/c

Well as some of you know I am a Marine that was stationed overseas for 2 years. I have been on this site religiously for well over a year now watching everyone enjoy there Cobalt's and watching the aftermarket slowly take off.
Well tommorrow I finaly pick up my Brand New 06 Silver Cobalt SS S/c w/G85 and sunroof. The dealer even gave me a discount on the stage 2 if I bought it and had it installed before I picked the car up. So after a year and a half I finaly get my car. I paid $20,689 Tax, title, lic and Stage 2 out the door for the silver stalion. I thought I got a pretty damn good deal. I have to wait till I get to my next duty station in Cali to install a Injen CAI, Motor mount, trans mount and a Corse Touring exhaust. I'm am 100% excited and I thought I would share the good news with everyone. I also hope i can make it to the Michigan meet here in a week or so and if anyone wants to meet up in MI, I'm in Muskegon till the 23rd of May!

Semper Fidelis,
Cpl of Marines

The only thing you'll be missing out on is experiencing how quick this car is without the Stage kits. Now your car will definately movee.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I'll never really get the chance to get stock dyno numbers either, which i was gonna do and slowing do mods and dyno every time but it looks like that won't happen. O well I just couldn't pass up the deal.

I went to Okinawa Japan in July 04, then I left for a tour in Iraq in Aug 04 till April 05 then spent the rest of the time on Okinawa till now. Off to cali for 3 months then I put the car in storage for my 2nd tour in Iraq then comes the major money and mods. Hopefully the after market will have a descent header out and maybe some other goddies out there to spend my money on when I get home again.
