  1. A random search for parts for my car yielded this: "Um, yeah...Do you happen to have any seat covers that will fit my '49 Cobalt." Idiots. And I've ordered stuff from them before, so yeah, that remark is warranted.
  2. I think if you take off the body-side molding, black out the chrome molding around the window, and remove the fixed windows on the rear doors, you'd have something that's 95% of what this concept's exterior is.
  3. In Soviet Union, bike rides you!
  4. I'll drink to that...here here :cheers: I'm not much of a drinker at all. Maybe one here and there around the holidays. The last time I was anything close to drunk was two years ago at a friend's homecoming party from Afghanistan. I had two rather generous hurricanes, which are delicious, btw.
  5. It is a goodlooking car. I love the way the seemingly maroon color lights up to a bright red in the sunlight. I can't wait for the covertible! I saw two G6 coupes in the dealership last night on the way home...a white one and an electric blue one :wub:. I'm gonna have to go in for a closer look sometime soon.
  6. LA: As for my contribution to this thread, I'll just go ahead and say it before knightfan does: Monte Carlo :P (actually I can't complain too much because I came within an eyelash of buying a red '05 MC LT before getting the Cobalt) other...um...notables Daytona (the 80s version, though the current "Daytona Edition" Dodges aren't too far behind) Cutlass (the 97-99) 300M (they should have just called it the Chrysler Vision, since it was originally supposed to be the Eagle Vision until Eagle went belly-up)
  7. Sweet! Thanks for the info Josh. Spring '06 is the perfect time to launch it. Now, who wants to guess the new Pontiac?
  8. Okay, the cheapest Sebring 'vert starts at $26,440, while the cheapest Mustang vert starts at $24,660. I find it hard to have any sort of problem with an over $30K Pontiac with a retractable hardtop that will no doubt be loaded to the gills and run circles around a Sebring or Mustang 'vert. Pontiac will sorely need this car if it is to have anything resembling a flagship once the GTO goes away.
  9. Almost all the pizza I've had outside of NYC stinks. Here's what I'm looking for in a great pizza: - fresh mozzarella (no processed stuff) - spicy gravy with basil - crispy, but not burnt, crust the last point is where all of the pizzerias in my neighborhood miss on. I either get stuck with doughy crust or burned-to-a-crisp crust. Most of them also get cheap mozzarella, which creates a layer of oil on top of the pizza that usually turns my stomach for the rest of the night. As far as franchise pizzas go, I'd have to say that Pizza Hut is my favorite. Domino's blows, and so does Little Caesar's.
  10. Me: I'm looking for a power window motor for a 1985 S10 Blazer. Autozone Guy: is that a Ford? Me: No, it's a Chevy. Autozone Guy: What engine size? Me: errr...um....it's got a 350. Autozone Guy: Is that a four cylinder?
  11. I can't eat most shellfish because I'm allergic to it. I don't eat chocolate or most candy because it gives me bad acne. I won't go near anything with an unappealing smell.
  12. I agree, stick with the LT1. They have a huge upside, and the aftermarket for them is just tremendous. You could probably coax 400hp out of it with just some basic bolt-ons.

    The side/rear glass needs some serious tweaking. It really seems like it's from a different vehicle. Take away the glass, and you have a killer sedan-delivery/panel van. The grille is pretty sweet.
  14. I wish I could've gotten some better lighting, but:
  15. The grille and spoiler are disgusting. Everything else is great.
  16. The twin ports are a little over the top for me. The stock grille would have been just fine there with the chrome trim blacked out. Blacking out the molding along the bottom of the greenhouse helps the car out tremendously. We all know Roush is good for more than just looks...anyone know what motivates this bad-boy?
  17. See if you can replicate the sound if you open the door and jiggle it (the door) wildly, side to side and up and down. If you can make their lives easier, it's all the more likely that they can fix the truck.
  18. This looks great....what the G6 should have been all along.
  19. The leak I'd venture to guess is coming from the top of the windshield or (if you have one) the sunroof. To find out where it's coming from, hit the truck with a hose along the various seals/openings. I'd fix that ASAP, before you start getting that mildew smell inside. The rattles may take some time to find out where they're coming from. For the doors, it could be that the inner components need to be tightened up and have loc-tite applied to them. As for the brakes....do you do exclusively city (stop and go) driving with it. On my truck I had a set of pads go at 18K during city driving. If that's the case, 27K isn't all that bad. Of course, you are under warranty, so I'd definitely have your dealer (or any Chevy dealer) look at the truck and fix whatever's wrong. Most of that is expensive and time consuming to fix yourself.
  20. Me too. Jeep should get back into the pickup game. My friend used to have an old margarine yellow Comanche that was tough as nails.
  21. In Islip, Long Island there's Atlantic Chevy/Caddy/Honda/Toyota/Hyundai/Kia/Nissan
  22. You Colorado combos sound sweet. I wouldn't mind having a truck like that myself. The deep sapphire blue on the LaCrosse might be a decent consolation prize. Impala SS in Victory Red......Mmmmmmm victory red. The Cobalt in that medium green color they use on the TB might be cool.
  23. VW Vanagon
  24. Chrysler LHS
  25. Lumina Z34
