power window option on an ls.

how about a rwd 3800 series 3 Supercharged engine? those run pretty good in the big boats they come in, i bet it would fit if it were RWD too... or an ls7 since none of this will happen anways

 

I can't think of anything off the top of my head besides a lower stance right from the factory. I bought a base model, so no frills were expected; the car suits me just fine.

 

You could pull your rear seats like I've done. It's great for hauling stuff. The small rear opening is a bitch though. I load lots of things through the doors.



View from the rear.



I've got lots of room for all kinds of stuff now - and it saves weight too.

 

Make it an EL Colbato!!

 

do all colbats have the battery in the back or is it just the SS/SC model?

 

Direct injection on all engines

6 speed manual/ 6 speed auto with paddle shofters

and LOSE HUGE WHEEL GAP!

all Cobalts

 

As others have said, LSD should be standard on all Cobalts - would be a nice help for those of us who have to deal with snow 6 months of the year, as well as those looking for more traction in the higher powered models. The second item I would like to see are Xenon lights standard - not for the coolness factor, but for the better lighting they provide.

 

rwd or awd, stage 2 standard, better clutch, better motor and tranny mounts

 

Twin Charged with stage 2 gm performance STOCK

 

you're having problems with snow? when we (colorado) got our snow storm this winter I had absolutely no problems. It was mostly 3 feet of snow everywhere and none of the roads were plowed. I didn't get stuck once. I had to help dig out a lot of friends cars, a lot of them being 4wd trucks. somehow the little 1 wheel drive cobalt didn't have an issue at all. granted I didn't stop for anything, I don't think i let the car get below 20mph at any time... which was intresting in the turns. but i didn't get stuck!

 

u can get stage 2 stock and and the cat back for a few extra $$$$

 

Gotta be stage 2 stock, that would make this car much more competitive in its segment. The other stuff like lowering is not a factory kinda thing. AWD would be the **** though.

 

More competitve? I kind of thought that the SS/SC pretty much beat everything in its segment, in terms of performance that is. All complaints from the press are about the interior quality, nothing about performance. I assume you're including the STI and Evo in its segment (even though they aren't, hence the $5-$10K price difference), because those are really the only cars that outperform the Cobalt.

 

I would change the following:

1. Weak Internals

2. Weak Axles

3. Weak Transmission

4. Wheel Hop

5. Perhaps a 6th gear

6. LSD Stock

7. THAT CHEAP E-BRAKE!!!!


Stage 2 would be nice stock, but you all realize that this would put the car up a whole nother price range, right? And twincharging it stock...even higher......oh, and NO AUTO COBALT SS/SC, keeps the everyday person out of the cobalt ss/sc.

 

Nah, mainly the SRT4. Or the new Mazdaspeed 3. Stuff like that. The Evo/STi class is way too advanced. My buddy ran a 13.1 stock in a 2005 Evo, and just tonight did a 12.84 at 109 with a boost controller and cat back. That is a little much for us.

 

lol. I agree, no performance cars should be offered w/ an auto. Same reason they don't offer automatic Z06's or Vipers.

 

i agree with snake i think that the fact that the cobalt is ONLY manual makes the car a tuners dream in my opinion...i also would like if the cobalt was a rear wheel drive kinda a counter force against that deadly wheel hop...this car is just nice the way it is from the factory...and it is very well aftermarket supported and factory...nice lil car GM's got goin on

 

Oh, ok. I guess I agree, although the SRT-4 no longer exists (for now) and the MS3 has virtually identical test numbers to the SS/SC, at least from what I've read. It's hard to predict what carmakers will offer in a few years down the road. Hopefully GM is reading all of this to inform the next rendition of the SS.

 

1) Leather seats that dont crease so much. The day after i got my car the bottom of my front seats are both creased and arent even flat anymore. Is that an issue only wit the colored inserts?

2) Ebrake that doesnt get scratched up on the sides and feel cheap. More importantly, no gap for things to fall inside when its all the way up.

3) Option for fog lights to come on automatically

4) No wheel hop

5) 6 speed with a more useful 1st gear. Is there a reason why GM made 1st gear terrible?

6) Direct injection

7) Rear sway bar like the one made by Progress

8) Better lookin spoiler

 

1. Option for the SS/SC to come in White
2. RWD for Drifting
3. Stage 2 stock or a 60 trim turbo

 

1. Stage 2 stock
2. RWD/LSD stock
3. Airbox mod
4. White!!
5. Strut/Sway bar
6. Auto Fog lights7.
8. Engine temp gauge
9. Hatchback
10. Traction control somehow
11. Hood mounted machine guns

 

The Evo starts at 30K, and at that price I don't want a 4 cylinder car, AWD or not...
At 30K it better have a V8, or at the very least a V6.

 

LMAO

 

i would like the sunroof button on the dash to the left of the steering wheel like in hondas. i dont like reaching up every damn time. and for the tilt steering to be a little more adjustable, not just an inch. i want the wheel lower.

 

2 Things....heated seats and make the SC in white.
