I'm glad to see they are going turbo. I've never been a fan of supercharging a 4 cylinder. Now that I think about it, after seeing a turbo V8 in action, I'm not a fan of supercharging anything.

While I give props for a nice engine.

The interior disappoints me

None of this "bang for the buck" deal.

Shitty, non-fitting, paint chipping, and rattley interior on a brand new car is a major fault in the economy cars.

My 11 year old accord (while not a power house by any means) has a nice vinyl interior, no crazy rattles other than a seat (grease is all dried up) and for the price of a new cobalt you can get one and get it to perform at that level.

And there in lies part of the problem. You know it's a good car, but you're not even willing to try it out. Not even look at it...

I didn't think the past Cobalt SS was that bad. They may have stepped it up even more for this car. They made the '08 'vette a lot nicer.
