Default ERICK!

Someone here in Groton is selling her Cobalt SS:

-------------
Asking $15,500

2005 Chevy Cobalt SS Supercharged
5 spd. Victory Red.
Low profile tires, 17" factory rims
xm radio and cd player, sunroof, cruise control & radio controls on steering wheel.
Leather interior (Black with red keyed in)
Drives great

Also have Injen Cold Air Intake that will go with. Car is currently all stock.

ONLY 31,000 Miles on it (approx.). Factory Warrenty goes to 36,954 miles.(You may have to pay a transfer fee)
This car does not get beat on, everything is in perfect working order.
Great gas mileage, I think the computer says it averages 24.5 mpg right now. I live in groton and fill my gas tank once every 2.5 to 3 weeks.


For specs and review and pictures visit this link:

Color, styling, etc are the same as mine. I drive to work every day and park in L lot, available to show anytime. I work first shift.

Email with interest!! Lets talk, I am always willing to listen.

-------------

I can PM you her email if you want, but I figure it's better not to post it on the internets. I have no idea who she is, though, it was posted on our internal classifieds.

Nope, I have no interest in anything older than an '08. It's a whole 'nother car.

Hey Erick, get one of those pickup trucks that really isn't a pickup truck.

You know, the one Chevy makes (I think) that is more about performance
than actually doing pickup truck-like things?

I'm not sure what you're referring to.

The El Camino and the Syclone fit that description though and I kinda like them both.

I think he's referering to this:



This pig weighed something like 5600 lbs, and could get dusted by a V6 Honda Accord. Tow ratings were (I believe) something like 500lbs, and that was including the passengers!

Just like the GTO, they under-motored it and then by the time they put the more potent engine in it, the thing had already been deep-sixed off of peoples shopping lists. 55 grand asking price quickly went to 8,000 - 12,000 dollar off fire sales...

Only thing interesting about it was the retractable hardtop, but they were notorious for leaking, creaking and rattling. I used to store my S at a home in Dracut over the winter and there were two of them being stored at the same time. Both owners said they could not drive them in the rain or store them outside because they leaked so badly.

You can probably pick one up with 50k on the odo for about 20 grand right now. Cheaper than the Cobalt SS

Ok... I have no use for that car/truck at all.
