So check out the new cobalt SS

[Keith]

I know I told a few people here about it but i'm ordering one of these bad boys and wanted you guys to check out the motor trend article on it. It's going to be my daily driver (I hate the wing-first thing to go)

I'm not up on that car, is the supercharger an option when you order it, or is it standard on the SS?

[Steve Chryssos]

Have you taken a test drive yet? Let me know what you think of it. $24K? How much is an 05 Mustang GT with 300HP? My guess is that the insurance companies has jacked-up rates on both cars (because the Cobalt SS is technically rice and the Mustang, well, has been jacked-up for decades.

The SS option comes standard with the Eaton M62 blower. I like the fact that it's a smaller, kidof unusual car and the SS is very distiguishable copared to the other Cobalts. The Mustangs are okay but they really cheesed out on the dash and console area of the interior. No only that, but everyone and their daddy's momma is going to own one and at around 29K loaded on the GT, I'd just rather have a Coablt.

I've taken the base model for a spin but it's entirely different than the SS which has so many parts that are specific just to that car. The interior is very nicely appointed for what it is and the electric steering is a dream. I love the way the steering feels on the freeway and on the street....it gets tight and super responsive on the freeway and loosens up when your going slower. The car is also quiet, quiet, quiet inside.....even on the freeway.

Keith, it sounds like a nice little driver that's easy on the pocket book in more ways than one!!

Give us some feedback when it comes in.

Just go here and you can "build" one that you want, and they do list the options, I didn't see a lower spoiler on the sheet, so that may not be the case (I personally don't mind the larger one) and quite honestly, there are very few options at all, as it seems to come very well equipped.

Check it:

Good Luck...

the issue is all cars tested had what the reviewers referred to as a performance pakage that included a limited-slip diff and recaro seats. I don't care about the seats but the LSD is important to me. No dealer, no even chevy themselves can give me a straight answer on this let alone order it with the options I want. I've done alot of research and it's just been a PITA so far. I want the car, though, so as soon as I can order the SS with what I want, I'm there!

Keith,

I emailed Mark, and his reply was that the LSD is an option on the "SS" package...The website appears to be less than informative.

Here is another article on it. http://www.thecarconnection.com/inde...&sid=184&n=157
