cobalts are supercharged not turbo, but id say a cobalt, tibby or corrola or along the lines of that, great fuel economy.

The '08s with the turbo aren't even available yet. They won't be out till probably mid-year.

Anyway, lots of cars, even new ones, can be had for 15k. Just pick something and run with it.

OR just get the Tata Nano. BRAND SPANKIN for $2500. No A/C (more HP, don't want it boggin down the 33 it makes) or radio (lots of room to customize) among other things.
