I see that kind of stuff all the time too. Although they dont try to race me. Its just older accords with neons and huge exhaust. I look inside the car and see old asian people. I guess their kid did the stuff to the car.

Anyways, I was cruising around town, went to grab a bite, and was leaving to head back to college. As I'm turning out of the lot, a new Red Cobalt SS goes by me going pretty quick.........with me intent on not wasting gas on a non Supercharged Cobalt.

Ye, they make two. This one had none of the obvious blower whine from the Supercharged one.
A supercharged one would be a good run at a track, most car magazines have it at 14.9, and my last run N/A was 14.9. Would be a hawt race.

Ye, I had to let the GSX go for college money. It paid for like two and a half semesters. sad.gif It went to a good guy though, and I had fun building it. Guy made me an offer that actually made me money on the car, and hes a good guy that knows what hes doing, which is slightly comforting since I know its not in the hands of a rich noob that would have it wrapped around a tree in a few days. Thankfully I haven't seen it on the road, would be rather depressing to be honest.
