honestly, i prefer the cobalt ss over the srt-4. looks much nicer to me, and stock it has similar performance numbers, albeit a little slower than, the srt-4. ditch the wing and new rims, i'd buy one.

I'm not a fan of the rear wing, and the wheels are very heavy (like 25lbs each). Like habsfan said, lose the wing, different wheels, yeah, it would be sweet. I can't wait till the car is available. Cause they should make the S/C available too. Then I can get one for my car.

I have to agree. I like the looks of the SS better even though it isn't quite as fast. The interior in particular is light years better than the SRT4's. GM's are a more reliable than chrysler products also.

I thought it was a missprint when I saw 18"s on the SS. I'm going home in a week and I'm planning on taking one for a test drive I'll tell you all how it goes.

You won't be test driving them in a week since they aren't available yet ;)

Closest you can do is test drive a redline.

I drove the Redline --- it has a sweet fuckin motor, that thing is brilliant, I Love It. the steering... notsomuch. as well, the whole aesthetics of the Redline aren't that great, it is a gigantic car (bigger then a WRX) and the center gauge bezel is just not cool.
As soon as the Cobalt SS comes available I am going to drive it for sure.
