I thought about that, and really liked that fact because somewhere down the line I will get rid of it

I like the design of the C-30 but there are only handful of Volvo dealers in NNJ and they only have a couple in stock and their prices are pushing 30k. I know they can bring me one from god knows where but I might be buying a car on my next trip home. So they need to have one in stock. But I do kinda like the car, well at least from the pictures.

Well Mini if the first one on my list so far. I used to love Subaru's but they have made their cars exceptional fugly in 08 and 09, almost like they did it on purpose
That's the only thing that prevent the WRX to be higher on my list, I know the car will be good, but every time I see it I hurl a little.

Quick google shows that the intake is on top of the engine, how big of a puddle are we talking about?
I had a dsm before and my intake was a few inches of the ground so I'm not too worried. THanks for the concern though.

HHR SS!! 220hp with the auto, 260 with the manual. You can get all the same things from the Cobalt on the HHR including the big Brems and suspension. You can also get the optional digital display to show a bunch of info. I got to play with it at Indy, very cool!!!

I'll take a look at it when I'm looking at the cobalt, but its not really the type of a car I'm looking for. It has more serious over tone to it instead of fun to drive
