"new" ss/sc (???)

Hey guys, I've been looking at a '06 cobalt ss/sc and I was just wondering if you guys had any advice about what I should look for in terms of commons problems/problem areas, and other stuff, etc, etc.
Also, what do you guys pay on insurance a month? Just kinda wonderin', trying to get an idea. Thanks guys

wow you guys get hosed for insurance in the US. my car costs me roughly $1400 for the year. And before you say it, my 2.4 is in the same class as the 2.0, so there is no difference in price on insurance.

ya i think your right cause when i called my insurance for a qoute on an sti, it was like 6500 i was like why so much, and they said it's consider a sports car, and your car is not, but i have a ss\sc, so i dunno maybe they didn't consider me a sports car, i didn't argue with them tho lol

I'm 19 with a Victory Red SS Supercharged(Red raises the cost of your insurance) with no points/tickets or crashes and I pay 253 a month. Whatever that amounts to yearly. Too lazy to do the math. lol
