Maybe on the internet. Definitely not in the driver's seat.
Zachary Martinez
Those are pretty cool for sure, if I didn't have the BMW version I would consider one for sure. But those are also way out of the DSM price range.
Carter Perry
dsm's are cool, know a couple people who have had them, they arent completely unreliable like people on the internet will tell you its surprising how hive minded Veeky Forums can be
Adam Hill
The AWD transmissions are shit tho. Other than that they are pretty reliable. Now every little electronic thing on the car will break however
Jose Bailey
Nothing wrong with fwd
Ian King
Everything is wrong with fwd dude. >can't turn >can't accelerate >torque steer >shit traction on hills in ice/snow FWD a shit. Its good for a commuter car that doesn't matter but actually trying to mod one is just asinine. At least with the DSM there is AWD for muh drag launches
Brody Torres
>torque steer so you're a limpwristed faggot who doesn't lift?
Christian Watson
No, I simply have the money/taste to purchase AWD or RWD vehicles. Enjoy always being unable to put your power down without slicks.
John Davis
Whatever you say Sheldon Cooper.
Don't fear the torque steer.
Wyatt Bennett
If your cobalt came with RWD option you would own it too. That is all.
Joseph Lewis
whatever you say. Just remember this sight. It's all you'll see.
Daniel Wright
The back of a gussied up appliance car? What a sight to behold ;)
>meme lap times from a heavily modified car I'm sure your FWD shitbox is just as fast. I'll stick to my DSM and BMW thank you very much, both of which are very fast and actually able to get sideways. But hey, we all make bad choices user, I understand.
Jaxon Wilson
too tiny. im 6'4" and can fit in a miata or mg sprite but those i cant.
Ryder Gray
> slower nurburgring time than an Australian pickup truck Roflmao
Kevin Allen
lock the elbow, stop the toque steer.
ive had 2.2 60ft times out of a nitrous cavalier, its really just down to what you do with what you have.
Asher Stewart
There are others.
Lincoln Jones
Ranger?
Christopher Brown
Or falcon/commy
Tyler Gray
He means the HSV tuned V8 Holden utes.
Hunter Miller
why even bother when there are real cars out there >nitrous cavalier oh dear.
Jordan Garcia
>heavily modified >implying the other cars there weren't heavily modified A good chuck of the cars there had double the horsepower of that Cobalt. That Cobalt's built was featured on a TV show on the Speed network ("Street Tuner Challenge"). The engine only made 245 HP from a stage 2 tuned LSJ engine, and close to 300 with a temporary 50 HP shot of nitrous. Still beat cars with double the power, triple the budget, and, theoretically, a better chassis.
Daniel Jenkins
i was bet i couldnt makeone as fast as a stock(ish) mustang with 3.73s
full I/E/Ign with a 75 shot did the trick. they are actually ok in terms of a blank slate. can hold boost and has a stock posi traction diff.
Brody Ross
>what is weight am i supposed to be impressed at a race car? what kind of bench racing faggot are you? seriously, nobody cares about this stuff but other fwd cucks and weebs on congolese crochet forums.
Hudson Russell
>am i supposed to be impressed at a race car? Every single part used on that car was available aftermarket straight out of a catalog.
Logan Lopez
6'4 >miata
Get fucked
Thomas Young
Who cares? Its a fwd shitbox with a turbo. Is this how sad your car is you have to defend it with meme lap times of some gutted race car 0% similar to the heap you drive?
Pathetic bro. Pathetic. What kind of bench racing faggot are you?

Don't know why, but this guy always pops into my mind when I think of DSMs. I never knew anyone like this, but I know he exists and I know he's had a Laser or Talon at some point that's usually broken down.
William Ortiz
There's a lot you don't know about FWD buddy. It's not some understeering monster out to kill you. The Cobalt SS EARNED a reputation as a giant killer by taking down many more expensive cars. GM did not fuck around with the Cobalt. Despite the FWD is bad meme, they are serious contenders.
Carter Jackson
>Despite the FWD is bad meme, they are serious contenders. Yeah, on a race track or a drag strip with slicks. They suck ass as street cars with any decent power. Been there, done that. Waste of money and time when non wrong wheel drive cars exist. >benefits to fwd sports car literally zero
Jack Baker
>upscale >trailer park
yeah im going to need you to go ahead and pick one of those.
eat dick bitch nigger. i have to get in all sorts of shit for this job.
James Murphy
K bud the ss is a great chassis and is faster than an evo and nearly every single BMW on a track. Time to stop being so butthurt because you lost to a gussied civic on a green light
Isaiah Martinez
>and is faster than an evo and nearly every single BMW on a track. No. Just, no. gl with your shitbox
Hunter Reyes
Disagree with the poor traction on snow and hills. I pass trucks and rwd cars in hills all of the time while they are fish tailing all over the place. FWD is good because all of your weight is over the front wheels. My car always handles snow/ice like a champ.
Sebastian Cox
>winter car
Caleb Myers
Idk about how fast or slow an SS/T is compared to an evo, but they are fast little pieces of shit considering what they are.
They have the usual shitty GM interior made by 5 yr olds, but I have a couple of friends with them that would put buslengths on my modded AP1 and regularly beat up on bolt-on 4.6s and mild ls1 cars. That's not to say that my AP1 was fast, it only ran a 14.3, but that's still a low 13 second shitbox 4 cylinder with just an intake and a tune from where I'm standing.
I would take one over a 20+ year old DSM, I don't think I'd take one over an evo.
Caleb Richardson
>Idk about how fast or slow an SS/T is compared to an evo
Angel Davis
friendly reminder that all of that is irrelevant because the cobalt is a literal piece of shit anyway
its shit, it will turn itself off and kill you in the process
it doesn't matter if its faster than a viper or a radical or a pagani, it's shit
remember the last time you ate spicy and greasy food? yeah, the cobalt is basically that turd with wheels
it was it is and it will forever and ever be shit
Jason Carter
oh look. a copypasta meme
Aaron Torres
it's not copypasta and its not a meme
the cobalt is shit, deal with it
Kayden Garcia
It's a meme.
Brody Bell
this cue fwd apologist poorfags
Josiah Gonzalez
no, it's a fact
Cooper Bell
it's a meme
Blake Richardson
the cobalt being literal shit is a fact, just ask the hundred of death an disabled people that crashed in them
it's shit user
shit
cobalt = shit
shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit
shitty shit
shit
Easton Lee
Nice meme.
Samuel Brown
call it a meme if you like, doesnt change the facts
Joseph Parker
You ignored facts multiple times repeating the same tired argument. How's that face full of shrapnel?
still a meme btw. The "GM is bad" meme has been around since Veeky Forums started. It's a meme. You may not have known it was a meme, but it is.
