1st SS came in today at my work. 3 miles on it and its dumping coolant out. sooo i was the one who got to work on it. Rad hose left off from the factory and the coolant level sensor unplugged. Anyways… after the repair, always a road test. Soo i got to take it out and see what it could do. Ran pretty good, have to keep rpms way up to make power. Pushed 12psi tops, handling wasn’t bad. For the most part it would make a quick daily beater. Prolly just as fast or a slight bit quicker then a stock GTP, IMO

red with red and black interior I doubt someone was stealing, the small clip that holds the rad hose clip open, was still in, and the hose was in the back of the motor and a real PITA to get to, barely could get my finders on it, had to put it up in the air and barely got to it from underneath.

I test drove an '05 SRT-4 and a Saturn Ion a couple days ago. As far as I know, the Ion has the same engine as the Cobolt SS. The supercharged GM motor felt a lot slower than the SRT-4. That 30 hp or so, made a big difference.
The Cobolt doesn’t have that “women body builder” look to it, like the SRT-4 does. So I think it’s going to interesting to see if it out-sells the Dodge.

I’m just using your post since you said it first 🙂
Its not a cavalier in any sense. Its not even on the same platform. NOTHING interchanges.
Enjoy.
