I didn't either at the time. But now that I'm older, and I own an Olds, that was a very sad day as well. Olds was a very - old - company..

Nah I liked them too, my dad had a few and they were great cars. I learned how to drive in his Aurora, it was just something about what he said and the picture together that made me laugh.

I always liked the Aurora. Good car.

But yes, the only people who even knew about the last car of Olds were the people in that room. lol

Yeah, haha. And it was a nice car, sad to have seen it go, but he did upgrade to a new Caddy STS last year, so the sadness was short-lived lol.

LORDSTOWN, Ohio -- The last Chevrolet Cobalt to be made at the General Motors Complex was driven off the assembly line at 3:35 this afternoon by autoworker Charmaine Phillips.
The car is headed for a Chevy dealership in W. Franklin, N.H., according to the plant's spokesman, Tom Mock.
In the six years since the Cobalt was launched, the GM plant has turned out 1.1 million cars.

Man this makes me sad. I used to work with 2 or three of those guys in the Linden plant when we were making the blazers! I have worked for 2 plants for GM and saw 2 different "Last car" roll of the lines :-(

This could quite possibly the best thing to happen to gm. The cruze couldn't come fast enough. I'm so dissapointed in my cobalt I can not put it into words. The car is way under engineered on so many levels. Corners where clearly cut. I regret ever buying the car. Thankfully ill be trading the car in within the next month.

guessing you dont own an ss..

i wounld NEVER buy a base model cobalt. even if i was payed. sorry but no. the SS had a little more attention to it. to be honest, every cobalt should be like the SS versions, except with a diffrent drivetrain. the interior should be the same, the feel of the car, almost everything.
