How many of you have the window sticker for your Cobalt still?

I am interested in compiling the costs of options specifically to Level III & Level IV Cobalts, but if I get enough response, I could compile it all...

This is purely to appease my own curiosity.. but I figure that if this is something that interests me, that others of you have thought this.

I should have all 2009 SS options covered for Canadian cars ~ assuming that the option cost didn't change during the model year, with one exception, I do not know (or cannot recall) what the cost was for Sport Red Tintcoat....

If you still have your window sticker (and you got a couple minutes to spare) could you please post your:

• model year
• trim level
• base pricing
• all options c/w charge
• option code - if you know it
• American or Canadian destined car (this would reflect different option prices)

I'll start this out with post #2, by posting my Cobalt's info.

I meant to add to this last night, and forgot ...

I blame the Dungeon.

At any rate, I'll do this tonight - I have a note set on my work calendar.

not interested in statistics, or what options a car has ~ moreover, looking to spell out/debunk some misinformation floating around, and appease curiosity at this time...

For example, how many times have you heard/read that 17" rims were standard or available on SS/SC's ~ I've heard it alot.
What I'd suspect happened was that the dealer changed rims between an SC & a 2.4 car to make a sale.

My sheet does not list the option code numbers, so hopefully you can dig them up.

Interesting

ditto on the interesting part!!

I had understood early in the 2009 model year that the inflator kit came standard;
You can imagine that having read the options my car had (no listing or charge for a spare tire), I was elated to see a spare sitting there when I arrived to pick up the car!
My 2009 Cobalt brochure makes note of neither btw...

So am I to understand that your car came with USB but no XM?

I dug up the option codes ~ they are not on my window sticker;
my detination charge was $1,325.00

Are you talking about the fat five spoke rims? Cause EVERY 05 to 07 SS, SC and NA, up here in Grande Prairie has them. Tons of them around here, and just three TC ones being me, a friend on this site and apparently there is a sedan here too.

TorqueSSter

Perhaps the Canadian cars had charges for items that were considered standard in the US - ?
My car has the XM radio, single CD/MP3 plarer, and the 2 input jacks - the plug in, and the USB port , which was a $ 100.00 adder - at least on my window sticker.

The options that I listed were the only ones on my sticker - all the rest of the equipment was standard.

$ 1325.00 for a destination charge - well, some railroad made it's money !

That's a good suggestion... did your car come with three a three month subscription to XM?

It's odd that a Canadian car would show it as an option, while it wouldn't be present on an American car... weird.

If you notice I found the option code for the USB port radio, but no option code for XM radio!? ~ while my window sticker clearly shows charges for both.

maybe I'll try to get a scan of mine...


Yeah I agree.

But what's worse was my own being bamboozled at the last minute by the dealer with a $400 paperwork fee... ouch (it's a good thing I got over $8k off MSRP!)

The SS/NA's are 17's and the SS/SC's are 18's.

Yeah, and that's a nice little scam, too. Thye know that most people ( like me ) will get hooked to the no commercials & pay for radio !!

I did not get a fat discount 'cuz mine was brought in for me off another dealer's lot. The sales lady (**** ! ) told me that the other dealer kept the holdback, and she bought the car at dealer invoice. That, coupled w/ the transport fees , minimized the amount available she had to play w/.

Meh - I bought it for zero percent for 72 months, in lieu of maybe a $ 2500.00 rebate ?

No extra fees, though !!

MastaShaKe_88 's Vin Decoder will give you option codes , so it may be worth a look. I am in the Camaro today, though, so I don't have my Vin handy.

I had almost forgotten the joy of spinning the rear tires !

Ahhh okay, gotcha. I never really learned much about non-TC SS' cause they never interested me.
