O'Fallon, Illinois, United States


For sale is my 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt. Only reason I am selling is because I want to go back to a truck. I am the second owner of this vehicle. When I bought the car it had 84,000 miles on it with all of the aftermarket things already done to it. Since I have owned the vehicle it has been nothing but a great dependable car that I drove to and from work. The car currently has 98,500 miles on it and drives like new. (The mileage will go up slightly by the auctions end)This is a very smooth fun to drive low maintenance car that averages around 30 mpg. Car features keyless entry with power locks and windows. Clear Title in hand!!!

Exterior: This "blacked out" cobalt includes aftermarket headlights, aftermarket black tail light covers, black Chevrolet "bow tie" front grill and trunk emblems, 16 inch black "MSR" wheels on Falken Sincera Touring tires that have around 50% life left in them (80,000 mile warranty tires). Tinted windows. The exhaust has an upgraded chrome tip. Custom "Special Edition" Badge was added to the trunk lid (shown in pictures). The body is in great shape with no major dents or scratches other than a small hardly noticeable dent on the drivers side door where another cars door flew open and made a crease (shown in pictures). I never noticed it until a couple of weeks ago because you can only really see it from a couple of feet away. I just had the outside detailed and cleaned. The paint and the overall outside appearance of the car is great.  Windshield is in good shape with no cracks. You won't find another Cobalt like this one!!!!

Interior: The inside of the car is in good shape. The seats have no rips or stains. The back seat has an small hole in it (had it when I purchased the vehicle)(shown in pictures). The carpets and floor mats are in good shape with no tears. All of the carpet in the trunk is in great shape with no stains or rips. The instrument panel was upgraded and is a little thing that makes this car even more unique (see picture). The sound system has been upgraded to an Alpine Head Unit with Two Sony X-Plod Subs in the trunk. The casing around the right subwoofer is cracked (as shown in the picture) but this does not effect the performance of the subwoofer at all. This car defiantly packs a loud punch with the bass!!!  
 

Mechanically: The engine is stock with no upgrades to it. The car started right up through the extremely cold winter without any problems. The automatic transmission shifts smooth. The original owner of the car had the following done to it before I purchased it: Transmission flush done at 70,000 miles, Left hub bearing replaced due to "humming", Replaced under warranty the manifold and catalytic converter, and Replaced sway bar end link. I have had no problems with the car since I bought it and nothing other than oil changes has needed to be done to the car for the 14,000 miles that I have had it. I just had the oil changed in it this past week and have been changing it every 3,000 miles. The car does not leak any oil. The alignment has been checked and is good. I had the coolant checked when it was last serviced and it tested perfect. All of the fluids have been topped off. All maintenance is up to date and current. The a/c blows cold. The power windows and locks work great. Everything works as it should. 

Overall this is a great looking car that is extremely reliable and easy on the pocket book both in gas and overall maintenance. 

*****I have described my car to the best of my abilities and have provided pictures that portray the cars current condition. The vehicle is being sold in  "as in" condition.  Please feel free to message me if you have more questions regarding anything about the car, I will be more than happy to answer them.  *****

I am located in O'Fallon, IL. Feel free to come look if you are close by otherwise I am located 30 minutes from St. Louis, Missouri. Fly in and drive it home. 

$500 non-refundable deposit is due through Paypal within 24 hours at the end of the auction. The remaining balance must be paid within 3 days of the auctions end unless other plans have been discussed and agreed upon by myself. U.S. buyers only. 

Trusted eBay member since 2006. One bad feedback from buyer who leaves negative feedback on all purchases. Cannot change it unfortunately. 

Thanks for looking!

1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28

Mon, Jan 12 2015

Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle

Sun, Aug 21 2022

The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.
