The Cobalt SS was produced after the sedan, so its taking longer for them to hit dealers.

Lordstown Assembly Plant just started to make the 2 doors.......................

But they haven't started making the SS yet.


But in all Honesty that is they best thing for us. I work for GM on an Assembly line.

When you start a new product you have a slow start up to learn the new job that you are on. New job that you are unfamiliar with the more mistakes possible. We would have a rampup speed till you get to full production. At Full Production we are able to make the products at a smooth pace and we are more familiar with the job so parts are put on with ease and better Quality.

I am guessing that in a couple of weeks that they will start making the SS and then give it a month until it hits the showroom.

I have guessed March for the longest time but it could look like that it can be April/May

Mine's ordered. They say the car could be here anywhere between the end of this month, or the end of next month.

I can't wait!

I'm holding off untill all the bugs in production are worked out. I made that mistake with the Honda Element.

The mistake was the Honda Element, not when you bought it.

I visited two of our local dealerships last week. They both said that the Cobalt SS wouldn't be out until about mid-June. I hope that they are wrong!

Yeah, me too. I think that is a bit excessive. Maybe they mean the non pre-ordered cars will be that long away? who knows?

I can agree with that, Iv had dealers tell me all sorts of wacky nonsence. That the GTO is only available in the Automatic untill later in the year, that the Cadillac sixteen is going to be produced, etc etc.

Sometimes dealers just don't know jack about any thing they just sell the car and they know absoulutly nothing they are so dumb sometimes.

Hell if its going to be fall, I'm going to take my $500 I put down and I'm going to wait til next year to get one then. I was hoping that the freaking thing would be out atleast by around the first of March.

Yeah i know what ur saying becuase Chevy needs to get there crap strait and get the reaslese dates up to date so we the consumers can figure out when we should look to be getting a car so i am pissed but i might not get one wiht the option o might just get one then just drive it for a wile then go back and trade it in for a new one with LSD in a year or so. :confused:

Glad to hear I'm not the only getting pissed off. This is ridicolus. They were suppose to come out in the fall. Then the Sedans started coming out in Dec/Jan, when do we expect the coupes? June/July? I could of gotten a hella of a good deal on a Vibe GT, but decided to go with the SS. AAAARRRRGGGG!!!!
