why do you fan boys get all offended? Dont cry bitch just because you know the quality of the car is plastic SHIT and besides, I said the engine is nice and stout but atleast put a motor like that in something that wont fall apart in 2 years. BTW, never said Honda is good because they are really dissapointing right now but still better than a cobalt
suck my cock ITRlover1, you should actually drive the car before you make up a lie on youtube. i suppose you like...hondas? that whole company is the worst automobile up to date
A Phoenomenal Engine! put in a peice of low quality plasticy crud
then im guessing you have one
Whatever! Not fancy but a blast to drive. Especially with a tune. So kiss off!
Cobalts r 4 girlz!
XPHENOMXFREDX: GM just announced today that they're recalling 1.3 million cars including the 2005 to 2010 Cobalt. If you drive a Cobalt, the steering may fail.
I drove one of these today too see what all the "hype" was about and in all honesty, this things is shit on wheels. Sure it may be quick but its still a cavalier body, WTF? Might as well turbo my moms mini van because its almost just as stupid. Interior quality was possible the worst I have seen in a new automobile up to date. The only good thing about this car is the 260hp powerplant but everything else is shit and I would spend my money elsewhere...
America I bow to your engineering. Its about time they steped up on the plate. Its not they were never there but they really got the civics, golfs, subaru attention. This really will make it intresting that a cobalt is in the picture. One thing i give hands down is the exterior style. I like the look of the cobalt unlike the civic si doesn't look as aggressive IMO.
i have loved the cobalt ever since it first existed. I think it's a really underrated car.
Most people think the hatchback version looks better. For $960 more than the Cobalt, you can get the hatch version of the WRX, which is more practical and most people also think it looks better.
@Atheismrulez because the wrx looks like week-old ass. As far as the price, i was thinking about the sti so my bad. It still looks like ass, though..
@Atheismrulez Perhaps it depends where you are. My LSD came standard.
Actually, no. The LSD is an option that costs $495.
Just checked and I actually underestimated the difference in price. The Cobalt SS has an MSRP of $24,535; the WRX has an MSRP of $24,995. The difference is only $460, so IDK why anyone would (or should) go for a Cobalt.
There are reviews that call the cobalt ss the best handling fwd car on the planet. for 25k, that's saying something. Its also saying something for a company that has to spread it's resources over a very diverse line-up (vette's, tahoes, vans, fleet vehicles, sedans, full sized pick-ups, etc). We all know GM can out-do its competitors. Whether it chooses to is another thing. Priorities are different.
@Atheismrulez what? a new wrx for 1k more than a cobalt, Damn, you got the hook-up!!!
@Atheismrulez
Every option is now standard. LSD, sunroof, stereo system, etc...
The only thing you can't get is the high rise spoiler, but I got one on my 2010 ordered from an 09 out in the factory.
Not when you consider the fact that you can get a Subaru WRX for only $1000 more.
@Atheismrulez REASON IS THE STUPID TURBO THATS ALL ..YET U HEARD THE INTERIOR IS COMPLETLY PLASTIC NOW... CHEAP SHIT HIGH COST!!!!
@AnimepimpYT yes i did and hate it the look of this one is LAME..U CANT TELL IF ITS JUST A REGULR COBALT OR SS..SS SC WAS BETTER I THINK THE SHOULD HAVE KEPT IT..THE INTERIOR IS MADE OF CHEAP SHIT TELL HOW MUCH THE RE SELL VALUE WILL BE IN 3 YEARS
