As many of you know, I recently traded the a 2007 Tiburon for a 06 Cobalt SS due to some serious financial needs. I finally washed/waxed that ***** and took some pictures before and after Springfest 2011 last Saturday. Figured I'd show what I'm working with now.

My buddy Langy pumping my gas for me.

Washed, today

This was like 2 AM morning of Springfest, trying to get it clean, waxed, and sexy.

Taken facing the road from my garage. Gotta love VA scenery on a good day.

WalMart parking lot one night

The day I brought it home.



I can't help but giggle like a 3rd grader every time I hear the supercharger, and laugh my *** off when I'm still averaging 26mpg.
I'll have interior, and engine pics up later.

 

Looks good!! Congrats

 

Why thank you!! I've got some serious plans for it. Only issue I'mseriously having is finding good looking wheels with the car......We just HAD to get the worlds most retarded bolt pattern..

 

I went from a tiburon to a red cobalt ss! haha, what color was your tib?

 

Oddly enough, dark red. Lmfao, Here's a picture of it.

It definitely was pretty, but just too many negatives to hold on to it.

Phyrric, your car is on Enkei EKM3's yes?
How do you like those? I'm thinking of getting a set of those, or Enkei Performance Lusso's

 

Oh damn I was silver, But yeah, If I was into stance and low and all that it would have been a good car but it was sloooow, cobalt was quite the upgrade, I had the previous gen

 

And yes its on enkei EKM3s, one of the better choices for our gay lug situation

better pic of them

 

awesome, i hate tiburons! i dont think its the car itself, its more because of every tiburon owner i have known has been a tool bag. that "my car's the coolest car in my single car garage" mentality.

congrats, great choice. slap a 2.7" pulley on there with some 80# injectors, tune on e85 and you'll rape some face

 

if my car was still supercharged i would skip modding the m62 (stock supercharger) and get a TVS supercharger if funds permit. that route will save time and money in the long run.
congratz and welcome to the fam.

 

its begging for a lowering

 

Hell yes it is. I've gotta do some research on the correct lowering setup. I see a lot of people on sportlines, but I'm thinking about full coils. I plan on a ZZP Stage 3 to tide me over until funds can support the OTTP stage 3. By all means throw some ideas my way. Lol. And thanks for Thar warm welcomes!

 

nice car hope you enjoy it

 

All this tiburon talk reminds of this riced out one that a dude at my job drives..outrageous body kit huge wing..its UGLY!

 

My friend has a 07 SS/SC with gunmetal ekm3's.
Btw were you at sheetz by dairy queen saturday night? Around 8 or so?

 

Sir we do not have E85

 

Tis' a shame!

 

how the bloody hell are you gettin 26 mpgs?!?!?! my effin 06 is pullin like 22 mpg's lol.... **** is mad weak.. when i drive bout 150 miles im almost half a tank!? my lil fucus was puttin 150 miles at like 3/4 a tank when i had it. and i drove them both the same lol... oh well.. idk.. welcome to the fam! good choice btw on the balt... how many miles did you say was on the car?

 

Looks good man I like the Victory Red

 

I get 27 with my turbo lol

 

Yep I wish we had it though.

 

i just drove back from bismarck the otherday after getting tuned for e85, about a 2hr drive on the highway, pretty straight shot, and averaged 40.5 mpg(according to the DIC). i was cruising about 74mph. i dont know how reliable the DIC is but thats definitely what it said :P

 

Nah, but I was out in town today. Much as I am almost everyday, riding around with nothing to do.

I'm contemplating wheels to go along with my low, but I really can't find any that get my attention. Enkei Performance Lusso's are a choice, along with Drag DR-31's. I'm open to all wheels suggestions btw.

Also, has anyone had experience with wheel adapters that take it to 5x114.3? If it comes down to it, I'll get some of those and roll XXR 522's. Lol

 

Welcome, enjoy the new ride!

 

Damn then I saw someone else with a vic red SS lol. The Lusso's are a nice wheel, I have actually wanted to see a SS with the Enkei GTC01's. I like those but your choice is a nice wheel.

 

i hate you both! .. i jus drive too many short distance miles doin 75-80 mph in short distances and it ***** up my ****.. it says my average is like 28 but on the hgwy i do about 40 ..... oh well...
