This weekend i was out and about and this guy ran into me at the gas station, we got to talking about my car and he was very interested in the GTP, said he has been lookin around for a while for a nice coupe with low miles, then he offered me 12 grand for it. I told him i would have to think about it hard, i have been thinking lately of getting rid of it because of gas prices and i cant afford the insurance on a supercharged car right now. Bills are catching up to me, and i cant afford it. So yesterday i called him up and said, if he is willing to go 13,500 ill sell it to him. So he came by later with the money, and drove my baby away. I am very sad yet happy, i dont have to worry about this $1200 insurance bill coming, plus i can plan for a new car, ive been shopping around today and looking at a cobalt, or a g6. My price range is around 15k at the most. So what do you gouys think, what should i get a Cobalt or a G6?

CAN NOT BELIEVE YOU SOLD IT!!! ...but you gotta do what you gotta do, right?

Personally, I wouldn't get a colbalt. I guess I have some kind of vendetta against them since my ex-g/f had one and I told her not to buy it, but I have never ever liked them. So I would go after the G6.

Although since i'm going to be working for Honda, I will advise you to get one. HAHA j/k. I was never a big Honda fan.

What I was your age, I was paying $3600 a year for insurance.
I would change your sig, and get lost! This is a GP forum, not a Cobalt forum!

srt-4 neon? cobalt ss (they are pretty nice i think, supercharged, stick, light,).

alot of imports are more american that some 'american' cars. just like chevman (i think it was him) pointed out.

My there are some parallel threads going on...
I just sit back and chuckle at the people selling their cars because of gas prices to get something with a couple more MPG and paying more upfront.
I will stop chuckling when gas hits $7+ and each mpg starts really counting.

I'd pass on the Cobalt. I rented the G5 (same as cobalt but better looking) and didn't care for the size. I'd go for the G6 almost as roomy as the GP and some good pep to if you get the GT or up.

Yea, some people aren't realizing how long it will take to pay off that new car they just got instead of paying for gas.

My grandpa has been delivering parts for ford lately and he said this guy brought a Almost F250 in with a extended cab and 8 foot bed and traded it in for $7500 and got a ford escape and had to take a loan out. So he has about 14 year loan instead of just paying a little more for gas. If I had the money I would def buy a truck. Their practically giving them away.
