Loving 06 SS/SC from Howard City, MI

Had my red 06 SS/SC for 5 years and still loving it! I enjoy putting money into it and driving it the way it was meant to be driven! Definitely consider it my baby. Will be posting pics of it when I feel like walking through 3 feet of snow to go outside.

Just started using this site. Plus, I was working constantly to pay for the car and just paid it off. When I bought it, I fell in love with it and the dealer pretty much ass raped me on the price. Plus, even with a great driving record, insurance was crazy cause I was 23, it's SC, and Michigan is expensive on insurance.

Thank you for all of the Welcome's. Unfortunately, I won't be staying. I recently crashed my car going 70mph and it is totaled. I am looking for another 06 ss/sc for when the insurance company pays me.

Possibly, couldn't say for sure. The cobalt held amazing value and I replaced it with a 07 Pontiac G5 GT and a 93 Dodge Stealth ES 3.0.

Welcome back.

Where are your SS/SC pics both before and after the wreck?

It was dirt cheap and just a project vehicle. Trying to learn a lil about mechanics. Figured, if I mess it up, oh well, it's just a Dodge. The insurance co pd really well and I got a good deal on the g5. The pics are in my album. I really only got the g5 cause it reminded me of the ss (minus the ***** & and leather). Pics are in my album under my baby.

Is that the SOHC or DOHC model, it's still FWD though instead of AWD which is more of a disadvantage on that much heavier car, should have went looking for a TT or VR-4.

pics attached

I dunno if I can bring myself to do anything extra to my g5. I kinda feel like no matter what, it will never be as good as my ss. Besides, all of my leds are red to match that car and the system has already been transferred. The stealth is a POS, can't get it to quit overheating and there's not much out there for info on working on them.
