New Chev = COBALT SS
 

(Apr. 1st) -
Last night, on the Speed channel, I saw a new Chev intoduced by the head of Chev that they called a "COBALT SS". He seemed proud of it and it was a nice looking car from what I could see through my sleep deprived brain. This was about 2 am and I had just woke up. Hope I was right about it.

Looks like a great car for the ricer crowd. Definately not a Camaro or Nova. Smaller looking to me. St least they are doing something new.

Replacing the Cavalier, the new Chevrolet COBALT SS. Available in three coupe and three sedan models.

It wouldn't look too bad if you took that bookshelf off the trunk. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

My guess is the Cobalt was built to compete with the Neon SRT4, which is enjoying some success in that segment of the market...this car isn't even a blip on the Mustang's radar...

Don't forget that the early Impala SS cars had 6 cyl engines so there wasn't a lot of performance in those. But it is a joke with all the Chevy vehicles that they slap the SS on nowadays.

As an upgrade to the Cavalier, most people that I have talked to seem to be impressed. For the money it seems like a nice enough car and 200 hp should make for a fun vehicle. I imagine a supercharged Cobalt is going to be pretty close in price to a base V8 Mustang which seems to be a real winner.

Anyone notice that Vonage Wireless also uses the same theme song that Chevy is using in the Cobalt "Ball" commercials?

YOUHOO, YOUHU, HU, HU, (Repeat) You get the idea.....

The big differance is that the Vonage soundtrack was used after Chevy used it for the Cobalt rollout- and the Vonage commercial states "people do stupid things" during the playing of the soundtrack, and shows people doing very stupid things to illustrate the point.

Now I think of the Chevy Cobalt when I see the Vonage commercial.

Funny but sad that Chevy did not check out who also had rights to the soundtrack prior to using it.

Another Blunder - can it get worse?? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif
