Going to pick up a black 71k mile 2009 Cobalt SS/SC tomorrow. Stock other than a K&N intake, motor mounts, and aftermarket headlights (I believe). I have been lurking through stickied posts getting to know more about the SS and already got good answers to the main questions I had; what clutch should I go with and how hard is it to deal with the direct injection intake value problems. Previous Cobalt knowledge; I have been working on/keeping a 2007 2.2 Cobalt running for some time now and know the SS I am getting well. Installed the intake on it and helped with the brakes on it (I think on the brakes). Current owner is/was a member here and provided a highly detailed maintenance record - down to when coolant was topped off, etc. I also know how quick it is - edging out my previously owned Genesis 3.8 the one time they ran against each other. I have a daily, the 2014 Elantra GT Hatch - so hopefully I will get to play with the SS some and not worry about it being super reliable. My other chevy may have more power but it also has to carry 3 times the weight when empty; Chevy Express with the 6.2 in it.

 

Welcome!

Welcome on the new to you TC.

 

Thank you! Now to get new CABs and stop the clunking and squirming under heavy breaking.

 

Welcome, post some exterior pics

 

Hoping to get a new set of bushings in the control arms this weekend - stop the clunking.

 

Looks clean, very nice
