yea, the '09 cobalt ss (which is actually really fun to drive, we got one in last friday) has brembo's too, but they're black.

Look at this beauty!

Why would anyone want to eat their words? As far as I can tell, nothing has been done to fix the shortcomings of this front design in these images.

I like it, and I always have, but I can't tell too much from these pics since they are distorted a little, the pics on the GM Canada site from Milford of the black one looked very nice. We all need to wait till we see one in person, so Indy here we come....

I wonder when this was taken. It looks SICK but I'm not sure if I think it's actual production. I hope so just for the exhaust but it doesn't have the GM logo next to the door.

jmliptak · 08-04-2008, 10:13 AM

Well, there is supposed to be a blacked out lower panel on the SS and larger exhaust tips, so those look right...Again, the video and pictures are compressed laterally, which may be the result of them being recorded in the PAL format (used in Europe and most places besides the US for TV quality images) so it is kinda hard to tell, but it looks promising.....

Bowtie Guy Z28 · 08-04-2008, 10:16 AM

Additionally there is not an SS Logo. All quick fixes but just things I noticed.

jmliptak · 08-04-2008, 10:20 AM

You are correct, all we are seeing at this point is production intent cars, I don't know that anything has rolled off the line yet, maybe a test or two. It will be interesting to see what we get to see in person at Indy in terms of colors and models and to find out where they came from in terms of build...I am guessing based on the relative quiet that there may be some surprises at Indy in terms of timing, etc....We will have to see what happens....If we knew everything all ready how would we pass the time?

Okay, We get that you dont like it. But seriously lay off. We know that you hate it and that you think it looks cheap over and over and over again.

Its like a broken record, hearing the same thing over and over.

Thats much better, i dont know why i didnt do that yesterday! It was late, okay?!??!

chevydude26 · 08-04-2008, 01:49 PM

looks very good...better than before...mucher bett...

but!

I'm still probably switching the front bumper...(after seeing both in person i will decide for sure)

but its not to the point where i would die if i couldn't...the rear looks better because there is no reverse lights and the side skirts seem to be improved like the side skirts look like the concept!

is it me or does the car look like it shrunk in that video??

but hell its a freaking beauty...it had me at hello

pinkcamaro10 · 08-04-2008, 01:51 PM

yeah the video is a little smushed

don't be so harsh on captain awesome he never said he hated the car...he just prefers the front bumper of the v6

but how is the car actually going to look...the misproportioned video we saw or what seems to be the fixed shots that are posted a few posts above me?

cuz by making it longer it looks a hell of a lot like the concept...
