I heard about it on the radio and avoided it. R u okay? I assume from ur description the balt is probably a total loss. Well, I hope since ur posting your healthy! Good luck getting this resolved.
I'm doing okay. My car isn't so good but I'm not sure if it will be a total loss. The rear bumper is pushed in pretty bad, the rear passenger quarter panel is crunched towards the trunk and wrinkled up by the door. The rear passenger wheel somehow got turned left (like your turning the front wheels) almost 45 or so degrees so at least one 18 incher and rubber is messed up. With the wheel turned like that I would imagine there is a lot of suspension damage. My co-worker was driving a 99 or so 4 door malibu. That car is a total loss, he took the hit first, got pushed completely clear and then the semi hit me. No one was hurt but I fear that my car will NEVER be the same if they fix it.
hello
hey every-1 im a newbie from lorain ohio.. i just purchased a 2006 SS and im excited i get 2 pick it up soon. ive wanted 1 of those ever since i saw them @ the auto show about 2 years ago.. and my dream is finally comming true
Bay Village
Red SS/SC hailing from Bay Village Ohio (West Side of Cleveland). 18 months with my SS/SC and loving it.
Like to give a shout our to two others in the area. There is a blue SS/SC with dual exhaust in North Olmsted and a copper SS/SC with a ColbaltSS.net decal that I see downtown parked around the Fed occasionally. Either of you see a Red SS give me a wave.

I actually stopped parking in that lot by the fed now. I park in the underground Tower City Center garage right across from the square.
You are the second person from here that spotted me downtown
EDIT: Oh now that you mentioned you drive a red 05 SS/SC, I saw you driving past the forum at around 8 am on a Thursday (about 2 weeks ago). I was on my way to the forum for an all day event.
What's up fellas .. I just picked up a black '07 LS Coupe tonight. It's a fun little car so far, but I have less than 20 miles on it so I can't say much yet. I'm not going to go crazy with mods, but plan to get a catback and lower it a bit. I'm also hoping the stock brakes start to grab a lil better after they're broken in, or else they'll get replaced.
Hope to see some of you around!

I'm In too!
I'm Brian, Wooster, OH. Car is currently being fixed in Canton. Had a little run in with a wall....lol... I'm fine but the car will need a whole new Front End. Ck out the pics in my Gallery. Waz up JonnyB let me know when the first get together at the car show in brunswick is going to be and I'll roll up there and show you the new goodies I got installed.
New Cobalt SS 2.4 Owner - Work in Middleburg Heights and live in Vermilion. Picking mine up tomorrow morning.
A bit about me, active-duty Marine, do public affairs for the Marine recruiters. Originally from Birmingham, Ala., and I'm trading up (thank God!) from an 01 V6 Cougar (rest its soul..).
I'm looking around here a bit - is there any way to set up custom groups, like maybe a Cobalt group that's just people from Ohio? Just an idea - but that's how the Cougar boards were set up, which was really handy if you needed something in a hurry!
Look forward to talking to all of you, and learning about this car from my experience and yours. I've gotta tell you I'm already infactuated with it - it's everything my old Cougar should've been...

Awesome, I lived in Vermilion in 2004-2005. I liked it there. Nice lil place. I got my first SS/SC from Sharpnack. There is a somewhat Semi-annual meet. One in April and another in October for all of Ohio. We'll be posting about it here probably end of february. Welcome to the boards man. If you want, there is a regional forum that some of us ss.net users started. Midwestecotec.com Most of us are in the Dayton area so far. What color, options does your 2.4 have? Any mod plans?
Very cool - Yeah, I like Vermilion. It's a good mix for my fiancee and I. She's a newspaper reporter in Vermilion and I work in Middleburg Heights (Strongsville), so it's a nice half way. Plus the town is nice, so I enjoy it.
I got mine from Serpentini in Strongsville - the dealer here only had one color, the burnt orange, and it wasn't really my style.
My 24 is a Silver MTx Coupe, Ebony cloth with grey inserts, sunroof, and then the pretty loaded standards - the 7 speaker stereo, 17 inch polished wheels with pirrellis, foglamps, etc. That's one of the things that really impressed me about this car - how much it came with, and I have to say it has one of the BEST factory stereo setups of any car I've looked at.
So far as mods, I know one thing I want to do first is clean and pretty up that engine bay. I'm not sure what made them decided completely crazy with plastic but that stuff needs to go. Down the road - I'd like to look into a turbo charger, possibly some graphics (Maybe black or blue racing stripes, perhaps Euro style), and I'll just have to see.
Right now I'm just so damn satisfied with the car I have no desire to do anyting to over the top. I'd have to say the "initial buyer satisfaction" rating is right up there - and I'm really glad I did some research this time around, because buying that damned Cougar was the worst mistake ever.. I knew I was screwed in 2002 when they stopped production.
