I've hated this car ever since it hit the market. I mean look at it, its got a skyline look in the back with a civic look in the front. (ouch, bad mix of vehicles).

Your right flyinginagt, it is a competition for GTs, and maybe it catch a GTP. But that is a performance package that is not commonly found on the street. The people looking at the cobalt are looking for a cheap but fast looking car. The majority of the cobalts are the weak 2.2L Ecotec DOHC 4 cylinder engines with about 145 hp and 155 lb. of torque.

IF you ever happen to see a supercharged cobalt. you might want to have a go at it. If anyone has any stories about racing a supercharged cobalt let me know, I want to find out how the GP does.
