Funny isn't it how a car that they call a tiny tin can piece of **** can get 4 pages and years worth of replies from them all! I especialy liked the one guy admiting he got "raped" by one that ran 12.8 in a 1/4.

Less then half the engine of the Mustang and still as fast if not faster ::::shakes head::::
and Ford wonders why its in so much trouble.

It doesn't matter. The Focus is their version of the cobalt/neon/srt/ whatever. Of course, over in Europe they actually produce cooler Focuses, including a turbo rally version. Over here they are POS.

boy now there's a quote...cobalts can take mustangs...just let me modify mine a little bit, and i'll race you then. GIVE ME A BREAK!

Okay, so for my first post...i'm laughing my ass off. How wonderful is that. Hell, i'm just a car enthusiast...don't really care much about what brand of car or what type of car...just something that actually impresses me. But people like you are what gives each type of car a bad name. I'm sorry...but your Cobalt is not the end all of vehicles, nor will it ever be. There are advantages and disadvantages to each type of car...and to each their own.

But comeon...you have to modify your car to outrun a mustand, and you're joking about that? HAH.

We never said that the cobalt is "the end of all vehicles". We just like our cars. And we're tire of trolling bastards ( especially the mustang owners ) coming in here and just saying our cars are junk. So we are just a little happy when we hear that one of our cars is capable of beating one in a drag race. Kind of like an "Up yours!".

The Cobalt is a sporty 4 cylinder. Meant for everyday driving and a little track fun. Some Cobalts are strictly race vehicles. And they are not daily drivers. Just like those who own SVT Cobras. They arent driving their 12 mpg hwy, gas guzzling beasts 50 miles to work everyday.

Oh yeah, BTW. Stock vs. Stock races are just competitions between manufacturers. What the hell is the fun in that?

yeah your right. 4.6L V8s vs 2.0L 4Cyl is a good straight up race

modding the cobalt would be "unfair"

oh yeah...15psi FI vs N/A is a good straight up race too...ever think of bitching about all of that?!?

and nobody's ever said you guys can't be proud of your cars, and what they're capable of...but insulting another vehicle, and talking about how your modified car can beat something else that's 100% stock (unless of course it's a mclaren f1, ferarri, something impressive to beat) is just a joke. I mean comeon...get real here!

Sure, if I lose it's no biggie. I'm not going to get mad or offended like you seem to at some of the comments here.

Do I have to bring my Cobalt or can I bring something a little more fun?

oh i'm far from mad or offended...hell the only reason I signed up on here was to get a bit more information about my girlfriend's new acquisition, and to maybe join a forum that wasn't anything like srtforums. Unfortunately...this is an exact copy of SRTforums.

And if you want to bring something "more fun" that's perfectly fine...i'll be driving this... http://www.tristatecarz.com/solodogg/stumpy

I didn't think that thread was that bad. Imean, ya there were some a$$ holes, but there were more than a few rational guys on there too. If you read through the entire thing you see a few guys calling out the morons.

Good find.
