Did you have lambo doors on your SS when you had it? I think I seen your car somewhere before and the name sounds familiar.

Yea, had a few looks while there, had a cashier friend always call me up whenever they saw someone around it lol. It was not for everyone, I think people(forums) hated the side decal but it flowed great with the hood and wheels. Just never felt like messing with it so it stayed plus I was not sure after 4 years how different the color would be off if removed though it was garaged most of the time till I moved to where I am(no garage). I would not exactly want a FWD with 550hp lol, I was going to build and turbo swap for around 450 and call it over for doing much to it. Started to set funds aside after I gave up on selling it then a guy from Iowa calls and next thing I know its gone. They got a helluva deal that is for sure.

I bet, not something people like to see I guess. I have no problems with sharing but these kids are tards and would always be wanting to use it so it'd be no point. I already let them have the shed(junk anyway) lol. As soon as I do not need their money they go bye bye. It was alright for a little bit.

no regrets as it was to help my wallet but I do miss it extremely. If I could go back I would probably not sell it. I want another but already jumped into another car. Depending on future outcomes I may pick one up again, hopefully one just as clean and not much of a beating.

I hear you. Gotta do what you gotta do. It took me a year to find my car. It had to be clean and completely stock. And still is...lol....I'm getting tired of FWD but will always respect the Cobalt SS.

yea, rwd is cool in a nice car I admit. Its amazing in my slow as ***** mx5 but I'd take my fast fwd over it any day. Pay abit in the corners but eh. I just miss everything about the balt, the exhaust noise, the whine of the s/c, the feel of boost. The looks and the hate I got for having a cobalt let alone one that looked like mine and then turning around and showing the haters its still quick lol. Do not miss the attention from the fuzz though. The sound system and just the look of the car. But as said, some day I might get another, might have to settle for a Turbo model just because finding a mint SC with low-ish miles is getting hard without going national on a search.
