2009 cobalt

In terms of quiet car reveals, the 2009 Chevy Cobalt SS takes the cake. At a Bakersfield, CA driving event for the new turbocharged coupe, Chevy had an example of the sedan on hand for viewing purposes only. Click the headline above to see the car from all angles. Like the coupe it'll be available exclusively with a manual transmission that shares space under the hood with a 260 hp turbocharged, direct-injection 2.0-liter four. The sedan goes on sale next fall as a 2009 model, but the coupe will hit dealers later this month as an '08. Pricing will start at $22,995, with a $495 limited-slip differential, a sunroof, metallic paint, and a rear wing being the only options. That price is equal to the larger HHR SS' base, but the Cobalt will come standard with Continental summer tires and larger Brembo brakes behind the wheels. Driving impressions are still embargoed, but look for a full review of the Cobalt SS coupe to go live on Motive around midnight tonight

The older ones Looked better..Im not sure about performance, but from the outside, this looks like something for old people.

looks like it for old people, 260 HP... sleeper?

almost looks like the pontiac G5

poop

Domestics=poop, but it does look good and clean.

I'm just guessing, but to some on here if it isnt a volkswagon it will be considered poop.

Not really..... but the Majority of Domestic products are poop.... with the exception of old muscle cars, trucks, and a select few 08-09 cars

there's no doubt that our volkswagens are heavy, but they are also one of the safest cars on the road! It scares me to think what would be left of that mazda after a head on collision.

This is true. but really the trick is to avoid head ons.
