Question Posted on Cobalt SS, figured I'd share

Well the ************* guys are arguing over which is faster the Cobalt SS or the Redline. I'm sure there are a few unenlightened individuals on this board that think one car is head and shoulders above the other. I quite honestly think that they're the same, GM's brand management once had people believing that Cimarrons and Cavaliers were different cars (images below for the young members). Sure you could get a V-6 in the Cimarron but basically it was just a 'tarted up' Cavalier. What do you guys think?

I thought we all solved this arguement on that very same forum
only advantage the SS/SC has is the slightly better suspension. its like racing 2 redlines and one being lowered. its pretty much the same car. I got into an arguement a while back w/ a Cobalt SS/SC driver about or cars.

It's a stupid argument. They have the same powertrain and have similar weights. I prefer the SS's interior but it is just personal preferece.
