I wouldn't do the SC'd version either. They are very slim, share the platform with an Ion Redline, but not as used as the turbo.

Many mods you find will probably be just for the turbo.

Plus an older GTP will be much cheaper.

If you can't get the T/C then get the GTP lots more mod-ability

So are you looking for a fast fun car you will occasionally drive or the daily driver car? How old are you too? I mean I had an 04 STI a couple of years back for a few months, but was really feeling out of place, pull in and all the younger crowd had the Evo's, STI's, SRT4's etc. and I eventually ended up selling it off. LOL it was fun but I'm more of a larger American muscle car type person I guess. Have read from a few owners that the Cobalts interior are not all that comfortable for a daily driver. Kind of like the Mustang, cramped and such. You can either get the common Pontiac GTP or Chevy Cobalt or stay with the unique crew right here on this forum and get another Monte Frikin Carlo and be somebody.......
