E) A stock SS/SC is more than capable of low 14's, no matter what some of you brainless
morons want to belive. To every one SS/SC in the high 14's theres 20 GT's anyone who says
differently is stupid. Not every SS/SC owner can drive and nor can every GT owner.
This is true, but this is because of 2 reasons.

1. The GT's that run high 14's are not driven to the car's potential, while the Cobalt running high 14's would be with a pretty decent driver.

2. There are a LOT more Mustang GT's then there are Cobalts.

That's all.

No the jackass made some comments that I pulled pictures off the internet and never had 2 LS1's.
Why in the HELL would you ever trade any LS1 for a slowbalt.

I live in Phoenix, ~3600ft elevation. It was 85 degrees outside and I ran a 14.33 bone-stock (I bought the car from a little old lady 3 days before) with a dirty air filter.

I would love to see your so-called Stage2 Cobalt better it. The fastest Cobalt I've seen when at the track ran a 15.3. That is a full second slower than me. Just some little information

I remember back awhile ago when cody was saying that he ran a 14.4 stock, and that was good, because most SS drivers were high 14's and low 15's

now, nearly all competently driven cobalts can beat a 14.0-14.2 GT..which is pretty good
the cobalts must have broken in pretty good to get over a half second for most drivers

and you HAVE to compare a stock to stock comparison,,, after that, its all up in the air, you can start bitching about money spent, or power to the ground, or better supsension..blah blah..

stock to stock is the only 'fair' argument left (and also assume equal drivers)

2000GT4.6 your stupidity is hilarious.

Look at the pictures ace, there all taken in the same spot and have NE plates. I would post all of my NE registrations that I kept but you aren't worth the time or effort.


And Ride of the Month you are completely wrong the Delta chassis was all new to the states when the Saturn ION came out. It was also used on the Opel Astra a year before then too. It shares nothing with the J-Body platform except maybe some screws or bolts, look under a cobalt. There are no old style sub frames it has two fully boxed channels per side that everything attaches to, it's as close to a full frame as you can get.

!!!!!!!!!!!!! UPDATE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HEY 20004.6GT TAKE A PEEK AT MY PHOTO PAGE LINK

BET I GOT ALL THOSE OFF THE INTERNET, HUH

NOW **** OFF
Wow you really proved me wrong there! Rofl.

I have some pics of my buddies Ls1 sitting in my driveway next to my GT. Wait, I mean its my LS1.... hell the plates are from IL where I used to live.

Even if you did own a couple LS1s, all that proves is your a total moron for getting rid of them to buy a blat. Great move there, trade in or sell a car for less than what it costs to buy a new one that runs slower modified with your "stage 2" stuff than they did stock.

+1

And you don't really have to compare stock to stock though. How about the fastest street driven coblat vs the fastest street driven 99-04 GT

Hell, what is the fastest coblat out there? have they even broken into the 11s on street tires??

thats true, BUT even I will agree that a SS Cavabot is probably more receptive to mods than a 2V 4.6, and probably cheaper as well

but then again, i didnt really think about the fastest street Stang vs Cavabolt either..

if i were to create a catchy ad announcement for the car, i think it would be somethign like this....
"are you, or were you ever a ricer? have you ever dreamed of owning a 4 cylinder car that accomplishes the quarter mile in under 16 seconds? are you too cheap to buy a SRT-4? then come to your nearest chevy dealer and look at our new and improved, Cobalt SS. Owning up to its historical, and not to mention nastalgic nameplate, the Cobalt SS bolts down the 1320 in a mere 14.5 seconds, while at the same time, saving you gas mileage and becoming the envy of all your ricer friends. So stop by your nearest chevy dealer today, and become a 'cool' ricer."

(not to mention DESTROY new edge stangs)

Hey 20004.6GT do you also happen to have the window sticker, bill of sale and registration all of which are in your name? Didn't think so bitch.

And will everyone quit saying a 99-04 GT runs 14.0-14.1 stock they don't.

Take a stock 99-04 GT run it 3 times, if there was $1000 on the line it still wouldn't run a 14.0 once.

14.0 in a stock GT is just like a 12.9 second stock LS1 just because it happens a couple of times doesn't set the standard.

And anyone who can do better than 14.6 in a stock SS/SC sucks and should be driving a LS or V6 Mustang.
