Hi I'm selling my 2008 cobalt SS turbo, The car has 56k on it and is mechanically sound. G85 option car!! Runs and drives very good and is Fast! The car is silver with a black suede interior. This was the first year for the turbo and it was a huge improvement over the older supercharged ones. the interior i would give a solid 9.5 out of ten on condition. Virtually flawless. The exterior i would give a 8.5 out of ten. The car only has one ding on the drivers 1/4 panel the size of a quarter, a minor scuff in between the drivers door and 1/4 panel. Very minor. the tires are good and still have some life left, the rears are at 60% and the fronts at 30%. Minor curb rash on the rims. I would say standard for the year and miles. The car was in a minor fender bender and has been repaired professionally (I have the receipts) but for some reason insurance issued a salvage title on it. The car has passed All Colorado inspections, such as State patrol safety check and emissions. I have photos of the vehicle before it was fixed to show how minor the damage really was. They put two new OEM bumper covers on it and a hood. This car is an absolute steal at the price and the reserve is very low, Much lower then the BIN, the vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end this auction at any point. Do not bid if you don't have very positive feedback. Third party inspections available. You bid, you win its yours. Also there is NO spare tire gear in the car but if you click BIN i will get it for you and also install the fog lights. Thanks and happy bidding

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1
Mon, 13 Jan 2014
The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
