I got to test drive a cobalt yesterday. It was a base black sedan. Felt a little cramped in it (me being 6'3", and used to driving a 95 gmc sierra extended cab with a v8) but that is something I am sure I can adapt too =) The one I want to buy was sitting in the show room. An arrival blue LS sedan and spoiler. I took several pics of it, but since I am not a contributing member, I will build a website for them when I get a chance and link to it here. The trunk was huge, I could climb into it and sleep if I really needed to. The backseat is big enough to comfortably sit anyone shorter than I. The only thing I would fault on it from my initial drive would be the speedometer is on the left side, but thats only cause I am used to it being in the middle, and the angry lawnmower sound. I perfer pissed off American metal under the hood(hints the v8 :cool: ), but you take what you get. I thoughly enjoyed driving this little car. As soon as I pay off my truck, it is probably going to be traded in for the balt. Although it will be sorely missed, my wallet (buying gas) will thank me.

did it have a rear fold down seat?

Yeah, a 60/40. Unfortunately, in order to have them split down, you have to open the trunk, and pull little black nobs that are inside it.

It didn't have the bells and whistles that I would want it to, but by the time I can get it, it shouldn't be a problem for them to order it.

workin on it. It's hard to build a website when I don't have time(work during day, classes at night). maybe I should just start a thread and reply to it ten times(so I am a contributing member), then let the mods delete it lol I will work on the site sometime this weekend.
