Just came home from the Pittsburgh autoshow and talked to a GM lead rep about SS/SC!

He told me about what a great car it is and all that kinda stuff...I listened to everything he was saying like I had no clue about the car at all...he told me it would be out in 2 to 3 more months now that the base and LS coupes are ramping up production...then I hit him with this..."I actually have a rally yellow ss/sc with free power moon roof and free xm satellite radio on preorder from early october"...then this guy changed his tune and says...well i happened to go to a cobalt seminare just last week and they told us there..."that Cobalt SS/SC production started last week"...he then said you are looking at only 6 to 8 weeks at the most since you preordered one that long ago...so what's the truth...what should we believe...did they start production last week (Banshee)?????

I have to say

I GIVE ALL YOU GUYS CREDIT FOR WAITING THIS LONG!

I have an LS Coupe with the sport package, placed the order in the week in between Christmas and New Years.. I have been hearing and seeing the coupes have hit dealerships AND I STILL HAVE NOT HEARD ABOUT MINE YET.. as of today my car hasn't even been thought of...!! SO I am biteing my finger and hoping THIS IS THE WEEK where I'll get a build date on it!....

SO, again.. I give you guys credit.. I'd would of gone postal or something.. hahahahahaha

OK just kidding.. but still WOW!

From what my friend who is a salesman at the dealership said, those of use who pre-ordered our cars through dealerships are getting them made from now until mid March, then around the end of March delaerships who pre-ordered cars without it being sold already (for thier inventory) should get them built end of March. After that, who knows.

I say this cause my car is schedualed to be built March 7, and the other car the dealership ordered at the exact same time, but has no buyer yet, is to be built in the last week of March.
