putting down 450? what is done to it? swap out the S/C for a turblow?

i enjoy mine very much so. good handling, good interior, good power. Upgrades are pretty well priced in my opinion for a little extra boost. Thats if your looking at the supercharged model which has been discontinued. Watch out for the 09 turbo models with the LNF from the sky/solstice/HHR SS.

I’ve spent probably 1500 for performance parts: larger injectors, stage 2 kit, smaller pulleys and HPTuners.

werent you just trying to sell your turbo hatch project?

why dont you get it running with no boost and drive it through the winter?

or find a honda beater for around 1k?

hondas seem to have been good to you, theyve always been good to me… i wouldnt ever buy a newer chevy ever…

i decided im going to keep my hatch…its not worth selling with how much money ive put in it and how much time me and IKSHO89 have put into it. I need something thats new, reliable, and that has warrantys. Its something that will be nice to sit on during school, work and everyday things.

I can’t imagine that an 07 with 1600 miles is very cheap. If you’ve already got a boosted project car why not get something more practical? Something cheaper or more likely to be reliable for a long time or less likely to depreciate quickly, or all 3?

yep, and if you payments are high, I hope you make good money. Between wanting to finish your project, gas, school etc. The money just isnt “flowing” as well

If I were him I’d either keep the project car and get a $5k civic or an SUV if he has any need for a larger vehicle, or ditch the Honda and put the money into the mods that greenbull mentioned. Or save the money.

I just don’t see the point of having a custom boosted 2 door Honda and a factory blown 2 door GM.

I own an SRT-4 and I just drove a Cobalt SS 2 days ago…no comparrison. The SRT was way nicer, faster, smoother. The inside of the SS looked really cheap, it wasn’t very comfortable and I wasn’t impressed at all with acceleration. It’s not worth the money for an SS Cobalt.
