No pics of it yet but will post some soon

Welcome brother.

 

Yea I looked at a Cobalt but going from an ION with a big opening trunk to a smaller opening was just silly imo

Nice looking balt tho!

 

Welcome to the site.

 

Kept my 2004 ION (120K) and used the wife's 1996 Pontiac Transport (278k) as my trade for a new 2011 HHR 1LT. LOVE both cars - especially Blackie (the HHR) and the excellent mileage from both (both 5 speeds - I hate automatics!) as they are basically the same frame/engine. No complaints about the ION & I always liked plastic bodied cars (we've had 1 1973 Corvette, 2 Transports, 1986 Fiero GT, a Saturn SC2 and the ION 3). I wish we could still get a mass production, plastic body but no unless you go to a two seater. We need more space than that so the HHR was the classiest looker we found. And the price was great!

Welcome!

 

to the forum Andy, sure was a sweet lookin' ION.

 

Welcome

 

Well I still have the ION she just wont start lol

Thanks for the welcome!

 

Welcome to the site! I used to play with plastic too. I had a '96 SL1. My wife had an '04 Vue, but now has the '08 Vue (No longer plastic,shame on them) Enjoy the site, plenty of info on here.
