JBO has some pix of Comp Group SS SC

Follow this link! Enjoy the pix!
Looks like chevy decide to make the seats leather/cloth combo like the redline....
Would have liked a red center seat, but gey looks to be chevy's choice!

Props to JBO for going to the show!

The Recaros dont look THAT bad, I just wish they did the same color matching as with the regular seats

The last time I built an SS on Chevy's website, it said that it had heated seats.
If you look at the interior pics of these two cars at the show, the area where the heated seat are on the other models doesn't actually have the rocker buttons for the seat heaters. It's just blank silver humps.......... Then again none of the specs that I've seen around have mentioned heated seats........
I liked the Titanium gauges.........

Good call.. and also, where are the aluminum pedals?

I still want my interior to be colour coded, and I want heated seats. Can you get the LSD without the Recaros?

no lsd without recaros
and the speedo, my pics are from lordstown on a preproduction Cobalt SSSC, probably explains the differences.

PLEASE DONT LET IT BE!
i want the LSD without those fugly recaros... it might be able to be done dealer install?
and wtf are people at GM smoking.... "yes, this weed is good... now lets make up option packages for the cobalt ss... lets put LSD with the recaro seats even though they have no relation at all"
i mean finally GM makes a decent car and they manage to **** it up some how... its things like this they are never as good as the japanese and european manufactures.

Actually Gm is much better at putting individual options on cars. Jap brands like toyota and Honda always group together a lot of options. but i do igree they dropped the ball here.

The definetly need to add both seperate, having a "sport package" with both would not keep interest as much as having LSD and the Recaros as seperate options. Not everyone hates the recaros either, but we will see what takes place. Hopefully you can have the LSD dealer installed, doubtful though.

What I'm wondering is if specifying the Competition Group option will mean you can only order ebony interior with ebony inserts. I like the two-toned door panels more then the two-toned seats, and the rear upholstery looks better two-toned as well. I wouldn't mind Recaro's if I could have red door panel and rear seat inserts.

To me, the interior of the Comp G car above is gloomy and boring, and a far cry from a regular SS interior with coloured inserts.

I'm also wondering if the 160mph gauges are part of the Competition Group package along with seats and the lsd

Preach!!

But to each his own, no? I agree with that though.. it just doesn't look as nice for some reason. I'm still debating what I want my SS for.. I mean.. I'm not really in the money to be tricking it out too ridiculous.. I like the idea of maybe some underbodys and other kinda stuff.. anyways, I dont wanna get off topic in this thread.. But yea. I dont think that Recaro's are my thing. The color matching was nice.. but does anyone know what the door inserts are made of?

I'm doubting that the 160 speedo is part of that package.. only because the P-Pack only really is the (please correct me if I'm wrong, the quaife LSD and the Recaro's?) Only giving you the grip.. I just wouldn't imagine Chevy haveing the discrepencies between cars.. a'hunno though.. but SS SC Cobalt's post made the most sense to me.. his pics are from the Lordstown Prepro.

Peace Out!

Guys,

calm down about the seats. They are obviously aftermarket by the person or by GM that were showing the car at the LA auto show. If you call GM like I did, the photos of the cobalt ss s/c on chevrolet.com are the EXACT way the car will look, with the small black center console/armrest, and the SS seats with color coded perforated leather inserts. I agree with those who thinks the Recaro seats are ugly, they are. Just wanted to share that the production model is shown on chevrolet.com (look at the first interior pic)

Ryan, hate to burst your bubble, but those are OEM recaro's taken from the Ion Red Line and used on the competition group option on the Cobalt SSSC, so they are not aftermarket recaro's(and if they were Recaro would have to be ashamed)
Call GM, they are as clueless as they come, lol

Recaro seats aren't meant for flashy color looks.. they are the best performance seats on the market.
