Hey guys I dicided to buy a new car a couple of weeks ago. I was looking for something sporty but good on gas for a work car. I looked at Honda, GM, Mazda, Toyota. I bought the turbocharged Cobalt SS. Wow is this thing a hoot to drive. 260 horses and 30 mpg just what I was looking for. This puppy owns the Nurenburg record for front drive sub-compacts(8:22) n ot bad, .91 g lateral. It gets a thumbs up from me!

I drove my cousins Supercharged cobalt ss, stops on a dime, handles well and man, I bet that thing would give ALOT of our cars a run for the money.
Good buy.
I thought they were going to be perceived as a rice burner at first but unless you put the shopping cart wing on it, it's a tight whip and pretty quick.

I totaled one about 2 months ago. Theyll take a pretty good fron/side impact...
I walked away with some bruisees and a few scratches.

I drove the Cobalt but I wanted more space and 4 doors so I went with the HHR SS It is a nice engine package, but the programmer is a little spendy at $995 Mine is also an auto so it is 10hp less. I like the remote start though

Congrats on the new car.

Have you tried http://www.hptuners.com/index.php i think its a bit cheaper.

Ya the turbo really helped this car but from 08 on the suspension was revamped and works well.
