10 Camaro ss or 09 cobalt ss tc sedan
 
Hey guys , right now I own a 2010 stock Camaro ss , I'm really considering trading it to get a 2009 cobalt sedan I found . Anybody raced a stock Camaro ss ? What would the cobalt need to beat it ?

Nah man , this is for real . I'm having a hard time deciding which one . I know the cobalt ss can be extremely fast for the cash and make power easy I just wanna know what it would need to beat a Manuel Camaro

Snail_SS 02-04-2016 05:53 PM

I say just go for that sedan

The sedan has the lsd option , trifecta tune , injen intake , injen charge pipe , so I might

Go for it man of your looking for speed that should do it and it's pretty cheap to get more power

It's running on 23 psi , you think it'll take my Camaro ss?

Depends on Driver mod. On paper, sure. Cobalt weighs less and doesn't have RWD loss but the V8 has topend and more potential.

ae_xiong 02-04-2016 06:59 PM

It really depends more on what your power goals are. If all u want is to be able to beat that stock camaro then I'd say the cobalt already has enough to give the camaro a run for its money. Obviously driver mod makes a huge difference when it's this close but if u want big power like 400+ and money isn't an issue then go with the camaro. Can't beat that v8 rumble. If u want a cheap car with easy power 400 or below, then go with the balt. Simple as that. The four door is also a plus if u want back friendly doors to put a car seat in.

tomj77 02-04-2016 07:32 PM

Yes the cobalt can beat the ss Camaro with a good tune. Now I wouldn't consider a trifecta tune a good tune. If ur getting the Balt, also get hptuners, and a new ecu since that trifecta tuned one is locked and u can't retune unless u have the tune file that's on there. Ur gonna want attune from a good tuner on the site. Then ull beat the Camaro. If u really wanna hurt it, zfr turbo upgrade

Camaro has lots more potential but for the money and a good tune, the cobalt should win. I beat a cammed, headers, intake, and tuned 2012 this last summer. Driver mod may have been a factor. I ran a 13:30 to the camaro's 13:50.
Cobalts are great cars for what they are and don't cost much to maintain/build.

Snail_SS 02-04-2016 08:14 PM

Exactly my point ^

Mejials3 02-04-2016 09:48 PM

Thanks guys ! It's a hard decision but I think I'm going to just build on the Camaro . I have ran it 3 times and my best was a 13.2 . I'll just get the ss sedan later on as a daily thanks guys

I should be in the 12's this year without a big turbo. Just so you know.

A couple of months ago I got into it with a 5th gen Camaro ss from a 40ish roll, it had at least an exhaust. my mods were a 3" dp, zzp intake elbow (non modded stock airbox), and zzp canned tune. I put about a 1 1/2 car lengths on him. I would still pick the Camaro over the cobalt, my cobalt is a DD and we get snow regularly.

Get the camero if you can afford to modify it, but if you want to save money then get the cobalt, parts are damn near half the price of a v8.

no_ss 02-05-2016 08:13 AM

Honestly the camaro launches so nice idk how you wouldn't want it.

KMO43 02-05-2016 08:36 AM

Race me

Mr Mall Cop 02-05-2016 09:22 AM

Interesting

OzzyruleZ 02-06-2016 01:18 AM

I honestly am not impressed with 5th gen Camaros at all. I'd get the Balt, be under rated, get better gas mileage and be just about as quick with basic mods.

UltraSilverSS 02-06-2016 08:49 PM

5th Gen Camaros are fat pigs too they weigh around 4k lbs

CudaJoe 02-09-2016 10:54 AM

I think the guy was trolling honestly. This convo is probably on some 5th gen camaro forum for laughs.

Honestly if it were me, Id take the cobalt over the camaro. I dont like the camaro for some reason. Windows are too small.

no_ss 02-09-2016 01:40 PM

Both are great cars, I wouldn't go around bashing either one.
