Hey guys, finally decided to take the dive and traded in the 04 cav for the 06 ss, and i've got to say what a difference in between the two cars, i love it. Got mine in black w/ the pioneer system, sun roof, and side air bags. This 2.4 ecotec has got some pretty good power, i feel like there is power available all throughout the RPM range whereas in my 04 cav with the 2.2 eco seemed like i had to bury my foot to get some power.. Unfortunately had to get the auto, but works perfectly..For a stock car exhaust sound is pretty nice... Cant wait to start with the mods, looking at the injen intake.. hopefully expecting a decent gain since this motor has VVT.

 

Congrats on the purchase

 

Welcome man...enjoy your 2.4 . I know I do!

 

One of the most under rated buys out there. A CAI intake and exhuast should wake it up nicely. I'd like to drive an auto someitme...enjoy. What colour?

 

wlcome to the family. I hope you like your ride. Is it the ss coupe or sedan?

 

post some pictures soon!

 

congrats on the purchase....

 

I will post pics in a few secs, I absolutely love the 2.4 you can really feel the power.. I havent really seen many n/a SS's around my area, mostly LT's and SS S/C. I know some people dont think its worth the extra cash for the SS n/a but the handling is top notch, and again the power is very good. I have no complaints with this car, my old cav seemed like i had to bury my foot down to get power, and it would be loud as hell. Stock exhaust sounds pretty fricking good.

 

 

Hells yeah!! Congrats on the purchase. You should start going to car meets and stuff to get to know everyone. Maybe we can chill, I live like 3-4 towns away from you. Getting my car back in less than 2 weeks. I can't wait.

BTW, I love the black.

 

Just got my 2006 SS Laser Blue Met. Last monday. Feels good to have a chevy again. Even though I will miss my wrangler. The SS is fun. Cant wait for the stage 1 and 2 perfromance parts to come out.

 

Congrats to both of you on the new Cobalts =)

Snowbred, you should come to the NJ meet on the 25th, gunna be a nice turnup... 16 so far

I switched from a wrangler to a ss also. Although the wraglers are great cars I think after about a week you will forget all about it. Seeing I hardly ever went offroad the cobalt is way more fun to drive in my book. I hope you like your new ride.

 

The stage 1 and 2 are for the SC version, actually. But congrats on the new car.

 

nice choice....y did you choose an auto?

 

I drive alot both highway and city, i didnt want to shift all the damn time. I also get stuck on some nasty traffic jams.

 

congrats youll love this car more everyday, it gets alot faster as it breaks ina s well

 

My twin.......you better come to the meet...I always feel like the odd 'balt....lol

 

Just bought a 06 SS and love it, nice and pretty cool car.

 

Cool

 

Generic Congratulations message to up post count ..

 

Nice car...I love mine.

 

Update: Got 200 miles on the car so far, driving like a grandma till i break it in enough. The power coming for the 2.4 is pretty good, i cant wait to see what she's got... Gotta pick up the injen intake once i break her in.

 

Has anyone taken their 2.4 ss to the track? how are the numbers? i keep reading on other forums how they think its so stupid that they made the 2.4 an ss.. i mean im sure anyone with a 2.4 ss would a agree with me thats its pretty darn quick.

 

I have gotten a 15.4 and that was with a crappy 2.5 60ft time. I was getting violent wheelhop si then I just launched barely off idle.

I hope my synthetic engine/trans oil and upcoming CAI can knock that down a bit.
