Ill keep the story to a minimal, I bought an 07 Cobalt LS 2door coupe. Im impressed with the cobalt, the LS makes for a great commuter car, plus you get a decent ride for what it sells for. It replaced a 91 Camaro that I bought 3 years ago and had 143k miles on the origional drivetrain when i handed over the keys. The camaro was no longer practical getting about 11 mpg city, driving conservatively (what my drives usually consist of) Im a car nut and a gear head, i like working on my own cars and enjoy driving both long distances and on spirted runs (at early hours when there is no traffic ofcourse). Ive been lurking for a while and you all seem like a cool bunch of guys. Here are some pics.







Engine w/o the hamster wheel looking cover thingy



When you drive an old car you get used to being prepared



Really comfortable interior, having a built in audio input totally rocks, as you can see its a 5spd, my personal preferance.

 

Welcome man!!! WHat part of Chicago are you in? We're going to be having a meet in a month. Nice 5 speed LS man! Again, welcome to the ss.net

 

Nice ride, welcome to the site.

 

Oh okay. Southern suburbs myself. There is one in arlington heights at Lattof CHevy (Crate engine depot) on July 7th. Or if you're ever in Orland/La Grange, give me a ring, we can go have lunch or something.

 

Im in skokie, did any of you guys go to the chicago cruise? A meet would rock, let me know the where and when.

 

Cool thanks a bunch, i wasnt expecting this warm of a welcome but thanks alot guys, ill talk to you all in the morning.

 

Welcome to the Forum.

Take that plastic box off your motor lol

 

Welcome...my wife had one exactly like yours except it was an 05 and an auto for about 6 months....

 

good stuff guys, whos the member with the blacked out cobalt, looks sick.

 

Welcome!

 

I say it every time. Clean trunk lids look the best on LS/LT cobalts. Good choice

 

lol thanks, well i took the car bargain basement style, at first i though about adding the small factory spoiler but i dont want to attract that kind of attention. Ive already been hasseled by a mustang owner for no reason except that my car was a chevy... sigh

 

Then I woulda hassled him for no reason other than he owned a ford...lol...**** rolls both ways...

 

How about some pics of that little beast hiding in your garage back there?



Nice car and welcome.

 

Can i drive the car in the garage!
Z06.....????

 

Holyi crap!!! I didn't notice that monster in the garage!

 

Lol its an 07 C6 coupe I bought last August at a really good price, infact i drove 40 miles just to give the same dealer my business with the Balt. Right now its stock but i did black out the exterior over the winter. Id like to get a baseline dyno and some track time before going with a bolt on setup. if you click "my car domain" in my sig i have a bunch of pics as well as videos Ive taken/ taken of me. enjoy guys

 

cool, I'll check out your car domain right away.

 

Welcome and nice rides! Hope we can help...

Welcome to the site!!! Oh, and your ride looks really nice and clean looking!!!

 

love the cars, plan yo do anything to the cobalt?

 

Welcome to the site, I have the same car as you, except in orange.

 

Welcome

 

probally not performance wise, i want to keep zippy getting good mileage, i will however be installing an air horn to replace the wimpy stock unit. I might also repaint my hub caps gunmetal like the vette.
