If in "This year", you mean the 2007 calender year, then you're correct.

The 2009 model year begins in less than 4 months on January 1st.

A 6 month hiatus isn't much. Look for it next spring.

Direct Injected. Turbocharged. :)

Oooo..and the top dog will be Z24 instead of SS.

:lol::metal:

Oh well i will enjoy my little supercharged one for a DD, gets great gas milage

Cobalt Z24!!!

:bow: :eek:

Ahaha...it will probably retain the SS badge, like the HHR.
Anyone know of any pics or if the Turbo Balt got any track time at the Ring?

I like the way the old SS coupe looks. I wonder if they'll make some changes to the exterior?

power #'s ?

The HHR SS is 260 horses with the 5 speed manual and 235 with the 4 speed auto. I'd expect Cobalt SS will be the same.

Cobalt Z24!!!

:bow: :eek:I actually like the sound of that. :D

I miss the old Zs... :)

From all I can tell , no exterior changes other than a mesh grill to replace the slats and new 10 spoke wheels <---if u look at the wheel , it looks like it was made from the same tooling as the old 18" , just remachined as a spit 5 spoke .

These are apparently the mules . Got the pic off GMinside news . I pointed arrows at why I think their legit . Most test cars Ive seen have that little white pipe coming out the front of the car .

Words cannot express how much more I like the new 10-spoke than the old five-spoke hoops.

from this picture, I like the old dark grey wide 5 spoke better. We'll see when they hit the streets though.

Do these have a lip spoiler that the old ones didn't?

Not me, man - I hate those five-spoke wheels. It's almost like someone at GM held a contest to determine who could design the bulkiest-looking wheel possible.

Those Vette-like 10-spoke wheels look great, though.

Which brings up a question: Is changing the model year of a car, while changing nothing physical about the car, a marketing gimmick, formality, what?

I dont know, but there are plenty of changes for the model year listed there. And I would expect "this year" to mean the 2008 model year.
