  • Everyone loves a comeback story

    Well I introduced myself before but im sure you guys only know the car, Maroon Cobalt with BBS's. Few weeks ago a woman pulled out in front of me and took the joys of my life from me. Car was totaled but I bought it back along with another turboed cobalt to easily swap the parts over including the coilovers,hubs,wheels. Even the intercooler survived. New car was custom painted Grabber Blue and belonged to a good friend of mine. Car needs some work but I think I can get her back to full speed.
    wrecked car




    and new car







    Cars not even fully registered yet and 50% of the parts are swapped over.
    Was awesome getting the help and support from the car community from all over during this whole ordeal. Its been a bitch.


    p.s. See everyone at SoWo!!

    That looks like it was bad! New car looks just as good if not better.

      Yeah it hurt, girl that was with me had to go to the ER but turned out to be a bruised collar bone. Luckily no major injuries and I was able to buy her back and get something out of a shitty situation.

            Yea its taking some time to get used to, was a financially sound decision to get it too and im trying to pay off bills and save money to move and get a house. Wasnt sure about the gold faces but it seems to work. Going to miss the other car for sure, it had 0 mechanical issues and always got me to places and held the power that was thought impossible.

                      Hope the other driver got hurt.

                      Glad that you are ok, and the parts are swappable.

                        Glad to see you're alright, though losing a car you've grown with is never easy.


                        With that said, the new chassis looks awesome! I liked the understated classiness of the last color combo, but this is something new and I personally love it. Reminds me of the color of that wild C30 awd concept Volvo built.

                              Nice! Was not really aware that the Cobalt was a car that stanced well. Shame we don't get them down here.
                              I reckon the gold on blue looks even better than the red.
                              Crashes, especially on a car that you've poured your soul into, are heartbreaking. It's good to hear you're alright!
