cobalt SS sc or srt-4???

yea i was suprised that i had him through 1st and 2nd but then his super kicked in and well that changed quick hahhwell i sure hope you know that SRT's are turbo not super. so i hope thats what you ment. lol

drove an srt before and hated it though, nice cars but feels like just a cruisin car with the placement of the stick and shit. Maybe I am just used to teh DSM and the 300zx

........maybe

or maybe i'm just dumb lol thats more likely

or maybe i'm just dumb lol thats more likelythis is highly possible :lol: j/k

yea hahah sry bout that i didddd mean turbo but back to wat sum1 said the SRT is stillllll a neon (maybe a fast one) but its still a neon... i havent seen the SS race tho... has any1 raced one???

yea hahah sry bout that i didddd mean turbo but back to wat sum1 said the SRT is stillllll a neon (maybe a fast one) but its still a neon... i havent seen the SS race tho... has any1 raced one???i havent raced one but i have seen a few race. seen one race a lincoln mark VIII and seen one race a stang and one race a cavalier. got killed by lincoln, got killed by stang and it beat the cavalier.

was the cavalier base or z24?? and my friend has a mark viii and it was close btwn me and him.... so sounds like the SS isn't all too fast

well i should correct myself the lincoln was super :rolleyes: so that may have something to do with it. and the cavy was base. exhaust and intake i think.

hahh yea the super mite have something to do wit it and a base cav wit that on it still isn't anythin compared to the Z unless it had full exhaust. haha but even then it would be a good race!!

yeah im sure the super had a something to do with it spanking the shit out of the SS. lol o well fun to watch.

i raced a cobalt SS (not SC) and about 3rd gear it pulled away from me but it was behind me...we were turnin onto a main highway and right as i made the turn i hesitated to see if he was ready and he took off...i droped into 1st, caught him and played with him till middle of 3rd, then i just didnt have the power in 4th 2 keep up with him, i was ashamed, but at the next redlight (right before 100West ramp) he nodded and and i nodded in defeat...:(

IMO if you get you ass wooped in a race be a man and at least tell the guy nice race. dont be one of them that after they lost they either take off and try to lose the guy or hang back so they dont have to be next to them.:disappoin

Haha what if its to a girl? =*( haha yeah dunno what car it was because it was so dark but it was fast!! Before I even got into third she was atleast a car length ahead of me. Haha but I have to agree with, and I did wave and she waved back, then gave me her number, you know, the usual. =D (jk bout the #)

now see thats what you do if its a girl. either beat her and get the number or loss to her and get the number, win win situation really. lol

ok so I was wondering if its a bad idea to go with the ss supercharge cobalt im about to buy one and im getting second thoughts but they seem to me like they would be great cars for racing

The main problem i've been hearing about them (for racing anyway) is traction control, they can't grip for shit. But with the right mods it can be reduced greatly. Other then that I havn't heard any complaints for them.

traction control.. ive heard differently from what ive read which is alot it seems like the srt will beat it in a straight shot but as far as handling goes it beats the srt in cornering and w.e u might be right though im just learning about this stuff

I've test drove both cars and honestly, i'm not really a fan. Sure the SRT-4 is a stupid fast neon that comes with some great tires. However its a diamler/chrylser tranny which have been known to be shit. The cobalt, well... it has a getrag tranny but still feels too cheap to me.

After my cavalier, i am moving out of the econoboxes. I love modding, but next car will only require a drop and 19"s. I'll still have my cavalier to tinker with. I just want something more classy.

i can't stand the quality of the interior on either i was expecting big things form the SS s/c and it just disapointed me, not to mention the ricey exhaust note *shudder*.

The Nissan Sentra SE-R spec V really has my attention right now, 200hp and cheap.

a) BMW 330 CI -white 6 speed manual
b) Audi A4 2.0T - White 6 speed manual
c) G35/350Z - white 6 speed manual
d) Porsche Boxter - white 6 speed manual
e) 1956 Chevy 3/4 ton - 572 - manual.. <3

My options for my next car. (e) is highly unlikely, but we can all dream can't we?

I didnt like the sced cobalt one bit when I drove it for a day. It felt like I was driving a led brick, handling wasnt even half as tight as gm speculated it would be (or at least for me anyways) and its clutch was one of the few that after about a 20min drive made my busted ass knee feel like crap.

they realy screwed up IMO on the SC cobalt, i mean you can get a 2.4L ss and get like 175hp or get the 2.0L sc ss and get like 205 hp, you dont get much more hp cuz they made the engine so much smaller, but if you get the regular ss you dont get the performance tranny and limited slip dif. like you do in the sc ss. and i bet if you wait like 1 more year you will have more and more stock cars coming out with turbos and supers, i mean i saw today that the new ford trucks come stock with twin turbos......THATS A FREAKIN TRUCK!!! and it comes with stock turbos, so just wait for more.

no shit they come with turbo's, they are DIESELS! i dont know if you know much about diesels, but almost everyone one ever produced has turbo(s)....the fords have a small turbo that spools quickly to get fast power, and a bigger one to increase towing/hauling at speed. ford/chevy/gmc/dodge/vw.....all make diesel engines, all have turbo's.

now as for the cobalt/srt-4 topic....i wouldnt get either. granted i would take one if the opportunity arrised, but if i had a choice some of my cars are definitely on classic's list. now working at a nissan/infinity dealership is making me lean towards a z in my book. very sporty, very fast, for pretty cheap. im a porter and thats pretty much all i do all day, is drive around in nissan's.
and also classic, i feal ya on the truck thing 1992 chevy 454 ss.....oh yea!

hm mine are like this (randomly)
a) 350Z - orange or red
b) M3 - Black or red
c) Corvette Z06 ( by the time i'd have the money Z06=cheaper )
d) Impala or Monte Carlo
e) Prelude Vtec
f) Supra? :)

yeah. random list but i'll most likely be e or d

no shit they come with turbo's, they are DIESELS!
ohhh, i didnt know they were diesels, i thought they had regular gasoline engines and thats why it impressed me, lol

after driving an SRT4, i would buy one....i think its a great car for the price. Also, i like the ability to upgrade the SRT from the factory.....turbo cars also have a lot more potential than an M46 supercharged Cobalt. I have nothing against the Cobalt, but i've driven both cars and think the SRT is more sporty and feels like a more agressive car...

I was referring to Cobalts btw.

i know u were i was just saying that the chevy cobalts ss supercharge supposidly handles better then the dodge srt

And I also meant on a drag strip, not cornering. Wheel hop has been an issue for owners in the car club i'm in.

Get Cobalt SS SC.

Dodge blows so much goat it isnt even funny. A neon is a piece of crap. SRT-4, SRT-8 and SRT-10's are slow as balls. Get Cobalt, hands down.
