Re: Cobalt Z06

Other than the wing I like it.

Just what Chev needs.

Needs a hood scoop!

Re: Cobalt Z06

they should leave the z06 name alone. i don't own one but chevrolet has a chance at actually starting a performance rpo and leaving it alone. unlike the late SS badging thats been taking place.

I like it alot better without the SS wing. But, I guess that wing isn't targetting me.

Re: Cobalt Z06

Doesn' look too bad, but why not try to come up with something a bit more creative code than Z06...?

Re: Cobalt Z06

They should not rehash something that was used on a cavalier since this is a new car they should come up with something different. my 0.02

Re: Cobalt Z06

They should leave Z06 where it belongs - Corvette.

I don't actually like it, the stock SS looks better. I scrolled down and saw the red SS, and man, that car looks soooo nice.

I do like the chop though but I'm tryin to recall what Z codes have been used as a preformance model or a special editon type vehicle.

Z24-Cavalier
Z26-Beretta
Z28-Camaro
Z34-Monte Carlo
Z06-Corvette
ZR1-Corvette
ZR2-S10 Off Road package
Z71-GM's off road truck package
ZL1-Used as special designation on 427 engine but has been on concept Camaro and Corvettes

Maybe Z02 could work but some options on Chevy cars are Z codes as well. Like Z51 is option on the C6 Corvette.

I'm sure that a Z code could be thought up for a Cobalt though

Yup, nice photoshop. And, at least to me, it looks like it is something quite doable, too. A modified version of the SS...?

Re: Cobalt Z06

I like it - i think it would look good with a more unique hood - some kind of scoops or something. I like it without the spoiler in the back though...i thinkt hat combined with a more interesting hood would be nice.

In Canada, there was a z22 cavalier for a while in the late 90s. I don't remember much about it.
