I agree its a addiction.. i have owned a few cars in my day but something about the cobalt wants you do do stuff to it.

I just explain to people....

I don't smoke
I don't drink
I don't do drugs

I JUST CAR!!!!!LOL
That would be it in a nutshell.I've only spent a few dollars,and the things I've done myself I don't count.I quit smoking awhile back.....what else was there to do with that money!?

noone really got into their motor it seems. few have done pistons and heads. unless those of you that just put how much didnt put what you spent it on. i see mostly tunes and pulleys. then exhaust/intake. are there any places that build the tranny up to handle more power??
