the only reason i didn't like the Redline/Cobalt SS is because they have mesh from the factory and for being supercharged, they dont make a lot of power, but the TQ numbers are pretty respectable....i test drove an SS and it was alright, but as far as stock goes, i'd get an SRT4

[btleier]

^^^agreed. the srt4 will run away from it, and you could find one for cheaper. but go with what you like. you're the one that is driving it.

Oops! lol.

I also head that sasquatch actually lives in a beaver dam in the red river. But don't quote me. lol.

Hey, there is a sweet video on the news websites in the cities of streetracing because the media loves that stuff there, and most of the camera work was done from a lightly modded ion redline. It has the cool supercharger sound, but other than that it gets smoked by pretty much every other car on there. Boo. Get a dsm, a bolt on gt35r and fuel mods for it, and have yourself a ball!

Edited for the truth.

I'd go with a ion redline over a cobalt ss any day. But what would be really fun is the Sky redline with the ls1 swap

It's called a joke...

To get back on topic, I like the SS a little better than the Redline, but its still a decently quick car by the numbers.

[MisterCMK]

meh, its still ugly and a saturn

[SmitEvo]

Id get an Evo, Sti, Wrx, Srt-4, mazda6 speed, mazda3 speed,350z, dodge grand caravan way befor a saturn Ion...

A stock Redline around hear DID beat a modified S2000 from a roll.

Wouldn't doubt it. I had a real hard time trying to take off without spinning the wheels.

I've seen dynos of them putting 210-220 hp to the wheels. Not bad.

Plus, The roots style SC they have, makes the a lot more fun to drive than if it were NA....or even turbo :eek:

ya, for $70K....some company already has been making these.

[CheapSRT]

buy my srt it pretty quick $5000 you have a mid 11 car

[treimche]

From what I've heard, the motor/tranny in the Cobalt SS/Ion Redline is very very good, but everything else around it is typical GM junk. There's a guy on the NA forums w/ a Cobalt SS and he's had it at the dealer a bunch of times getting shit warrantied.

[00vtec]

Import y0.... ...

[Instigator]

Whats the warranty like for these?

I thought you were joking at first when I was reading your post, I thought you were being sarcastic when you said it was fast...

Like cheapsrt said, buy his and put 5grand into it and run 11's. Or buy mine and have a nicer/faster car...lol ( I can put $1500 into mine and run 11's no problem) The warranty on my car is good until 2011. 7yr/70k mile warranty ftw.

But hey if you want to get the saturn, by all means get it, just don't be upset when new Civic Si's are beating you, or stock SRT's, or modded RSX-S's.

Oh, I don't know, we will see what kind of job I have this spring. I am really leaning on either an SS or a redline. But I don't know, I haven't ridden in an SRT before, so I might have to try one out sometime...We will see what ends up unfolding. It's all in the future and no one can tell the future so...

[00vtec]

SRT's are nice.. fast for a stock turbo if you dont do anything right away.
