Decent, but Lacking Anything Special

Date of Review:  Mar 30, 2007
The Bottom Line: The Cobalt is a solid choice for an economy car, but make sure you look around first before settling.
Review: A recent stint at the body shop for my car had me driving a 2006 Chevy Cobalt for a couple weeks. The Cobalt turned out to be a decent economy car that got me around without any issues, but other than a fancy coat there was nothing too impressive to...

Chevrolet Cobalt: Plain Vanilla

Date of Review:  Sep 8, 2006
The Bottom Line: The basic Chevrolet Cobalt would provide reasonably cheap commuter transportation. I had the impression the car would not outlast the payments, so don't load it up with options.
Review: Chevrolet Cobalt: Plain Vanilla

I had the opportunity to put a 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt LS sedan through its paces on a recent car rental. The car had 2,000 miles on the clock, making me among the first to drive it.

I'm used to...

Contents: one basic car. To the Rent-Mobile, O Caped Wonder!

Date of Review:  Feb 20, 2006
The Bottom Line: It's an automotive appliance. Four wheels, four seats, four doors, four cylinders. Decent quality; the quintessential Rentmobile. Not exciting, but does the job.
Review: While waiting for the sheet metal gurus to repair my bent VW Passat (a one-month wait), I rented a Chevrolet Cobalt LS sedan to move me around my life; there were no bells-and-whistles. After 31 days and 1500 miles, a few conclusions can be reached...

A Great Car for Really Tall Women Who Like to Drive in Platform High Heels

Date of Review:  May 20, 2006
The Bottom Line: The Chevrolet Cobalt has a lot to offer with it's many different models, especially if you're in the market for the ever-rare economy luxury car.
Review: INTRODUCTION AND INTERIOR

I test drove a 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt sedan LT. That's a high trim level, and different from the LTZ mostly in cosmetics. The LTZ has a chrome grille and 16 inch wheels instead of the painted grille and 15 inch...

Did the definition of "super" change at some point?

Date of Review:  Sep 5, 2005
The Bottom Line: SS fails as a sport sedan. Needs tuning closer to that of the SS Supercharged coupe.
Review: A few years back GM decided to get serious once again about creating sport versions of its various models, going so far as to set up a new Peformance Division led by Mark Reuss (son of one time GM president Lloyd) to develop them. The Chevrolets...

Not the same old GM anymore

Date of Review:  May 6, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you're considering an import, consider the Cobalt. You'll get a lot for your money with all the quality.
Review: Introduction
The Chevorlet Cobalt, also marketed as the Pontiac Pursuit and Pontiac G5 in Canada, is General Motor's replacement for the Sunfire and Cavalier. The Cobalt marks a complete turn-around for this size and class of car. This will...

What's this? A Chevrolet? A small car... impossible!

Date of Review:  Mar 2, 2006
The Bottom Line: This car is perfect for someone who wants the SS supercharged, but can't afford it.
Review: Who would have thought that Chevrolet would have produced a decent small car?

THE STORY BEGINS

I find myself firmly planted in the driver's seat of a 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt SS N/A. This is the SS without the supercharger. It's a...

GM still cannot match the foreign competitors

Date of Review:  Aug 2, 2007
The Bottom Line: As a rental its fine but considering you can find better cars in the 13-15k price range even used I cant see why someone would pick this.
Review: I am renting a Cobalt LS while my VW GTI is in the bodyshop. All I can say is I am utterly disappointed. I really wanted to like this GM product. This car screams rental all around. The interior styling is not horrible, guages are nice, radio is...

Cobalt a good deal, if it holds up

Date of Review:  Jan 15, 2006
The Bottom Line: a good deal if the price/financing are right, appears to be well-built. Gas mileage and interior are disappointing. And hopefully the steering vibration can be fixed.
Review: A quick update: this car had a vibration at low speed(say 10-20 kms while turning, worse while braking and turning, from day one. Initial comment from dealer was that the brakes probably were not seated yet. After a few thousand kms we needed some...

Gets you where your going but bad electronics!

Date of Review:  Aug 30, 2007
The Bottom Line: Great mechanically sound vehicle but the electronics will need work! Still, at this price you can afford to fix the electronics.
Review: Mechanically, this seems to be a pretty good car. The transmission shifts smoothly, engine is quiet and has quite a bit of pickup for a small car. I have 41,000 miles on my Cobalt and purchased it back in January of this year with 29,000. So far,...
