I still love to drive my car! I get comments on it all the time. It's pretty zippy for an econobox. Mods are coming out more and more now. The TVS from Eaton looks promising. It's no ZO6, but it will do for a few more years. Can't wait for the 2008 supercharged LS9 ZO6!

I love my Cobalt and I have no regrets at all. I will soon see how much potential these cars really have and hopefully in time there will be plenty of Cobalt beasts driving around.

For now I really like the car, but I know when I start making just a little bit more money I will buy a new Mustang GT and put a whipple Supercharger on it. That wont be until I finish my 67 Mustang though, as for that I love the Cobalt. And not alot of people know alot about it. Its almost like a sleeper stock since it is more powerful than people think from stock numbers. Since my 99 prelude probably got 30 less hp to the wheels than it was rated at from the factory.

I love my car to death..but unfortuantely have to get rid of it. Yea it gave me some problems when I first got it. the first month i got the car it went back to the dealer with electrical problems and for the most part i've been to the dealer at least 6 times with different problems, but I still loved it so if anyone wants a 05' Cobalt base with Injen Intake, Custom Pacesetter headers, Custom Magnaflow Exhaust, Eibach Sportlines, Debaged, Shorty antenna,35% Tint, Already Hooked up sub wiring,Auto. So there's still more things yet to be put on this car. I'm getting rid of it for two reasons 1. I'm in college and can't pay for it any more 2. I'm getting out of the tuner scene for a while until I get my money situation squared away and I grew up a lil and seen better things than just putting **** on my car then racing some kid with whatever and hearing his typical tuner bullshit.. I just got bored of it. So if you want it $14,500 b/o pm me

I love mine so much I think I'm going to keep it while I'm in Japan for 3 years. The car excites me every time I get in it. I look at it and I kinda slip into a trance. I just can't bring myself to axe it. Cobalts rule.

Keeping mine so far I've had no issues. The only thing is like everything else the more I put in the car the more I want to add it's never fast enough no matter what car I have I've had 2 cobalts and they both haven't given me any trouble

if your going away for 3 years sell it ... dont take that depreciation ... and get a kick ass car over there ... one you cant get here
you can get a cheap used cobalt when you get back if you still want or whatever better cars are offered by then

Love the car. Keeping it for the years to come. This car has more potential than people give it credit for. Do a little research before "settling" with your "no potential" car.

I love it. It puts a smile on my face everyday. It's comfy, quiet when I want it to be and not quiet when I want it to be. 
It's got plenty of pep and it does have some good potential.
It will definately tide me over for the next three years until I either have a family and buy a family car or if I am still single I will keep the cobalt as a DD and go for a Viper as a fun car.
