Guess I'm scarred from the turbo lag days, plus I like the sound the Cobalt SS SC makes :)

If they do drop the DI turbo in it, that would be cool.

From a long term ownership perspective, wouldn't a turbo be more problematic than a supercharger?

Nah, not with modern turbos and oiling systems. They're a lot more reliable than the old Garrett turbos on the old 3.1/3.8 V6s back in the day.

Thought your dad (who is paying) said you HAD to get a civic Now you claim your getting an FJ but if the SS comes out your getting that
thought this car was not safe enough for your dad to get you, but the ss will be ok

It looks like disk brakes all the way around, I wonder if possible / how hard / how much it would be to put those on previous models.

At what price point do you think these are going to come in? The Solstice GXP starts at over $27,000 while the regular starts at $22,000.

HHR PNOY

You'd probably see this for $25-$28k with leather.

All wheel drive could be a possibility.

Rear wheel drive is out of the question considering most of GMs RWD efforts are in a state of hiatus now, and besides it would require a total alteration of the underlying platform, which they would not do at this early stage in the HHRs life cycle.
