”Car Stereo Installer Must Be On Crack, Reports Customer For Being Same
Now let's say you're a car stereo installer in scenic Frederick, MD. We're going to go out on a limb and assume that your customer base is more than likely composed of 20-year-olds with chin strap beards and Pontiac G5s. Probably the kind of low-level drug dealers with just enough cash to afford a 20" subwoofer, but not to pay child support on their three kids. Would you alienate your entire demographic by calling the cops if you found a stash of drugs in a car you were working on? Although we wouldn't, we also realized 10 years ago baggy jeans and oversized wifebeaters weren't fashionable. More »
2010 chevy cruze
The next-gen Cobalt — whether you call it the 2010 Chevy Cobalt or the 2010 Chevy Cruze — is going to be an important vehicle for GM, meaning the interior is going to have to stand up to some stiff competition from other automakers. The spy shooters at AutoScoop have snagged the first really good interior images we've seen, showing off a strong three-pod gauge cluster and a steeply-raked center stack with audio controls below a recessed screen, not dissimilar from what they've been doing with those Opel-Saturn-Vauxhall cars as of late. There's also a collection of new exterior shots, though these 2010 Cobalt photos are a touch closer and more revealing.

2010 Chevy Cruze Shows Off Its Interior

spy photos
It looks like the engineers working on the 2010 Chevy Cobalt have decided to ditch most of the non-paint camouflage and by doing so are now showing off most of the grille, headlights, tail-lights and greenhouse. This is it. This is very likely the new Cobalt. From the angles snapped by the swift photogs at KGP it looks like the new Cobalt is going to borrow some lines from the larger Chevy Malibu, which is a good place to start. This is abundantly clear in the all-but-revealed two-tier grille. This is the same platform set to underpin the Chevy Nubira, Volt and other vehicles. Full spy report below the jump.

2010 Chevy Cobalt, Mostly Revealed

2010 Chevy Cobalt
A single, very clear and largely uncamoflaged image of what we assume to be the 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt has emerged from GM Inside News. This new photo seems to confirm some of the other heavily camo'd shots we've seen today, but this is by far a better image. The styling on the new Cobalt is extremely reminiscent of the 2008 Chevrolet Malibu, it just seems to have been left in the dryer a little too long. There's a larger version as well as some discussion about this new model below.

SEMA 2007: More Shots Of The Chevy Cobalt SS, Now With Engine Shots
Oh look, it's the turbocharged 2.0-liter Ecotec referenced earlier today. Yay. Enjoy the open hood, boys. And remember, the Chevy Cobalt SS grille will be billet, not bar. GM PR wants us to clear up that misconception built from, you know, showing a car at SEMA that's the opposite of what the production version will look like.

2009 Chevy Cobalt SS
Looks like GM's bringing out yet another old mainstay to SEMA this year. Yup it's the 2008 Chevy Cobalt SS— yup, that's right — it's got an SS badge. Yay. Well, if we disregard the FWD platform and focus on the 2.0-liter turbocharged and intercooled Ecotec hitting 260 horses — we guess that extra 55 horses over the old n' busted supercharged Cobalt SS is something less to scoff at. The new Cobalt SuperSwervy's also got itself a short-throw shifter — only it's mated to the five-speed tranny rather than the new six-speed from the General. Altogether, while others may claim that added horsepower signifies a return to the SS badge "meaning something," we'll have to determine that in person with a test drive. Our best bet is it'll probably just make the torque steer all the more unbearable. Full press release after the jump.More »
