Talking just got word that my car is getting built this week!

an unusually great monday for me !
My dealer called me this morning to inform me that he's received word that my Cobalt SS S/C is scheduled for build this week!
he said that their message was " week of the 8th " so not a specific 'day' for some reason but still better than just 'waiting' with no idea of when.

And we should expect it to arrive here in town 'within a month' (obviously somewhat uncertain etc.).

He'll call me when he hears more, and gets invoice etc.

but sure was a good start to my week just thought I'd share.

LSD = Limited Slip Differential or Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds - whichever you think will get you off

yeah LSD (limited Slip Differential) & Recaro seats are the "G85 Performance package"
IMO better than the LSD drug stay drug free! but make sure your car has LSD !

Lucky you! Mine is scheduled for build next week, Arrival Blue SS/SC, sunroof, XM/MP3, LSD & Recarros, NO OnStar. I can't wait, I saw your post earlier so I decided to call my dealer, sure enough I have my date of "week of the 15th"! Guess the hold has been released, wonder if it was for parts/quality reasons, or just to get more SS 2.4s out.

Mike_42, Guess ours will be twins, other than XM

Congrats guys...

When did you order yours? I just ordered a couple of weeks ago, and have a feeling that I still have a long wait ahead of me

I 'placed' my order with my dealer June 8th
but knowing they would not build any 2006 at all until the start of July I knew I had some waiting ahead of me. I placed it way back then to make sure that it had best chances of getting in line to be made as soon as possible, considering I live in the least populated state means 'low priority' to GM in the nation-wide picture.

placing an order 'now' .. I would expect most places you could get it within like maybe 6-8 weeks (assuming no issues with parts like they had with 2005 coupes)... just keep nagging your dealer

I was just wondering if they gave you a price on the whole package. The salesman told me at least 10 weeks from when they tell him it will be built and no final price until he gets it. $26,102.50 is what he thinks. with the Recaro seats and LSD, Sunroof, and no onstar or xm. I can't afford that, so I didn't order it yet
