My First Brand New Car

Yup, I traded my 06' SS/SC for this beauty. Can't believe the great deal I got on it, plus, this is my first brand new car, as I have always bought used. Had 112 miles on it when I drove it off the lot. I know its been said 100X, but this car is such and improvement over the SC... I LUV IT!

Right now, I am the only person in Western KY that has one... I feel special... lol...

Decisions, they had a black one too, but black is sooo hard to keep clean?


Compare, my old SS... I luvd it, but time for upgrade:


I think the low wing is much better... imo

PS, be VERY CAREFUL that u take it to redline when u No-Lift-Shift, lol i fuked up twice in a row and shifted early, my tranny light was flashing at me when i did that.......

Nice car! Nice color Too!

(but where's the manly rear wing?)

Anyways, what kind of deal did you get? I see $24,240 on the sticker.

I only paid 19k for my 07 SC new, so I just can't see going another 5k over that ...

Well I own a Victory Red SS T/C and my other Cobalt was a base model and it was silver, when it comes to cleaning them silvers the way to go for sure cause they look clean when horribly dirty. Red does have an attitude I agree! But hey, it's a SS T/C so no matter what color it is, it's badass!
