Cobalt SS S/C it is

well went down to the dealer and leased a black 2006 Cobalt SS Supercharged today. I took it for a test drive and i really liked the feel of the car. Nice ride good power, clutch was a little stiff but im sure it just needs to get broken in a bit.

I didnt buy it because GM is lieing about the 0% financing for 72 months, thats only on a select few vehicles that really arent selling. Like Avalanche and a few other pickups and Aveos.

I got a 39month 12,000 mile lease.

I talked to the people there, i can mod the lease, just as long as before i turn the car in, i take off all the mods. So once i save up about 1 grand, Stage 2 upgrade is coming, that will put me at around 247HP and similar TQ numbers.

Only thing i dont like is that stupid wing, fuck that thing sucks, but i guess ill get used to it. If i like the car enough after a year, ill just remove the wing for something smaller and just out right buy the car at the end of the lease.

Pics to come later tonight.

All three of the big 3 are doing that. If you listen to the end of all the commercials, they are like, special financing and incentives and employee don't apply to certain vehicles, like, in Chevy's case, the 'Vette and SS/SC.

Nice car though, I like them in black. Nifty little cars, I wouldn't mind one if it wasn't wrong wheel drive.

Re: Cobalt SS S/C it is

I hope that it's 12,000/year and not 12,000 miles for 39 months.

yeah they get away with it because they say "0% financing on all 2006 models for up to 72 months" all GM cars right now can get 36 month 0% financing, but only a select few that arent really selling can get it for more than 36 months.

The wrong wheel drive wont be so bad on my car, equal length drive shafts and a Limited Slip Differential will help out alot.

Re: Cobalt SS S/C it is

Re: Cobalt SS S/C it is

Yeah, buying an Aveo would take care of the boy racer image, or any sort of social life for that matter.

Congrats on the new car man, just know that after this car you will probably never own another black car again.

Re: Cobalt SS S/C it is

i know black is so hard to keep clean, but damn it looks so sexy.

It is a lease, but it wont be stock for long, i talked to the dealership they said i could mod it, as long as i removed the mods before i turned it in. All i was really planning on was stage 2 upgrade

247HP 7,000 RPM redline mmmm 750 bucks, need to start saving.
