WEll as some of you know i am looking to get my cobalt, and many of you have seen my post featuring the silver s/c for 10,995 with 21k on it. g85. i added up the parts that i want and i am speniding a lil over $2000 for all of my perf. stuff & the only thing after that would be rims.. but now ive found another balt, that i really like.. and it has a few of the mods that i was looking to buy anyways.. and its gorgous. so..which one..?

Silver-

Blue- pretty sure he is on here.

all opinions will be considered, thanks.

 

11 private value is pretty up there for an ss/sc....esp when u can get a tc for 15-16k now.
See if he'll drop it a k or 2 and id say that one. first one got a big ol farter on there lmao.

 

im not planning on paying more than 9500 for the silver balt. and the farter is nasty. 1st thing to get ripped off for sure.

 

Common sense says silver one, newer with 1 third the miles and cheaper. But if you thoroughly examine that blue one and everything checks out... go for it I guess.

 

yea i actually think i had my boy lookin at that silver balt we're down by hburg and **** came up on our search...saw that fart cannon i was like oh hell no hahahha. yeah get the silver and chop that **** off put a magnaflow or somethin on it.

 

tough -- for the blue one offer him 10k for it, he said he needs it gone quick. it already has **** done to it.


the silver is stockk, that can be good and bad. u can customize it to how you want it, but also u do have to drop more cash into it and spend the time too.

also, 21k miles vs 62k miles

the silver will last longer. the blue has probably been driven hard.

if you want a project and plan to keep for a while -- silver
if you want something already done to drive for like 2 years, not time/effort, -- blue

wouldnt pay more than 10k for either

 

thnaks ry, nice lil write up.. i dont mind doing the work and all...but i made a list for the silver1. and i have $2000 in mods i want. and then rims and illl be set. for the blue one, i spend like $700 and have everything i wouldve put on the silver 1.. i would like to have the car for a little while though..2 years sounds about right..not sure man, hard decision.

 

so, tomorrow i am going to look at both of the cars, and go from there, leaning towards the blue one.

 

silver one aint bad and the rims on blue one car be found on ebay for about 700.00 in red and blue and i think a few other colors...

 

if you dont plan on keeping for more than 2 years, grab the blue one. u'll be set once u transfer the title.


also consider the resale value for when you decide on another car. silver would have a higher resale because of mileage.

i would probably pick up the blue one.

 

I'd personally get an 07 over both. Comes with a better warranty, nicer steering wheel and radio. I've driven multiple Balts, some with Recaros, most with not. I personally found them uncomfortable. I've also driven some with and without the G85.

Im not sure your experience with a cobalt, but maybe you should go out and test drive a few.

I made a list of everything i wanted in the cobalt first, then went searching for that.

 

really? that cheap..?

 

well, im going to look at the silver one today, its about an hour and a half away. so wish me luck =)

 

The blue one is a memeber on here I believe. Honestly though, I'd look for a TC myself. Like this one

After you pay 2000$ in mods youre up to 13k anyways. id say spend the 14k and get a nice TC. Plus its OBO. You may be able to haggle. And it has low miles. Then trade me trunks if you want a high rise!!!

Edit: Nevermind about the blue one. It's not the members that I thought it was. But its the same paint scheme. But bifferent wheels.

 

i would like to get a tc but im really on a budget here, i went to see the sliver 1.. had a few imperfections and needs front tires, the shifter is missing a lil trim piece, but other than that the car was great! beautiful interior shape. nice ride... i offered him my current dd. a 2001 altima gxe ltd ed. 118k and full fosgate system with pioneer head uni built in bluetooth, ipod mp3 & a jl sub & amp i offered him that with 7500 cash money out the door (taxes title tags included) at first he offered that.. i tried to work him a little more, he still wouldnt budge so we left, returned a half hour later and offered him the same offer he offered us..he said no. WTF!?? its ashame cuz i really liked the way it drove...everything about it really, low miles and all.. now im f*cked.. but i refuse to give up my car & 8 grand, thats ludacris...

 

i offered this guy 9k. he accepted. what do you think???

lol




same thing here, but with a red ss/sc instead of an alpaca


cant say i saw a red ss/sc coming lol. what happened with the blue, i knew the silver fell through.

grats. looks nice, already stg 2 & lowered.. intake/full exhaust and ur good. then customize interior/rims

 

i offered the blue guy 10k. he declined. said he had offers for 10.5 so i found this red 1.. guy is real nice, im happy with the talking so far. he is on her actually. "totaled" maybe with two "d"s im not sure.. only problem is he is 3 hours away... big drawlback!

 

3hrs aint too bad. ya only gotta do it once

 

HOPEfully. i drove for a total of 5 hours today to check out the silver one..

 

ohh and by the way, the sliver balt has a "$1500 exhaust system on it" but i looked. the tip is welded on there.. hmm. and its "cat back" he must of spent 2days putting it on hmm...?

 

I bought the red one today! couldnt be more happy! paid $9000 cash! happy as helll!
