“Same platform, powertrain, suspension and brake mods as the Cobalt SS for a WHOLE lot less that Cobalt SS are going for these days - you do remember the whole Nurburgring record lap times that lasted for years set by the SS, yes?”

If you are willing to put in some sweat equity this could be a pretty good deal for a cheap but fun daily.
