If I had the money I'd trade my Si in for an SS in a heart beat. Way more power, much better handling, and made by the company that makes Corvette's. If they engineered a Vette I trust what they did with this car.

I've been all over cobalt SS forums and there have been mixed reviews about the new TC cobalt. They all hate the clutch, says there absoluty no feel to it. They say the no-lift shift is nice, but is hell on the cluth. The Engine bay looks like complete crap, thats one engine bay I would never want to show off.

I really tempted to just go and test drive on myself, I just hate dealing with sales guys.

Unless you have boost there is no way. There defiantly faster than us.
