The New Cobalt is far the worst piece of shit ever to come out in the market. In order to appeal to the youth of america, The Cobalt designer borrowed the design from two of the best sport compact cars out there. The rear window design of the RSX and the Interior of a VWGolf. Chevy must be a crappy company for it can't design its own style and set its own trend. they always copy others and are always are behind with their inventions.
Comparing the RSX type S which comes with 210hp stock without a supercharger and the Cobalt SS 210hp with supercharger, right there tells you how bad chevy is in terms of technology. therefore they relay on the supercharger to get to and additional 60hp out of the chevy cavalier engine which equals crap. :D

I'm guessing he's got an RSX as he's got DC5 (chassis code) and RSX in his name. :)

I can't say I completely agree or disagree with him. I do agree in regards to the interior but a lot of people don't care about that. Currently, I've only got the Cobalt LS to compare to the RSX-S so it's an unfair comparison. And I've only driven the Ion Redline once. Who's to say it'll feel the same?

With the LS, I didn't like the it because the shifter throws were way too long, didn't go in smoothly and the shift knob was a cheap rubber ball. The clutch had too much of an "unused" range. It engaged at about 2/3 up the full travel of the clutch pedal. But at least I got something to back it with. With the Ion RL, the shifter felt a lot shorter (will probably be similar in the SS/SC), the clutch was more responsive (but still not as much as I like).

If you take the good from the Ion RL and apply it to the Cobalt LS, it's not bad. I'd prefer the RSX-S though although my 2002 (200hp) will be slower.

But I do give props to GM for making a fast, affordable car.

The 2002-2004 has 200hp, true. But the 2005+ RSX-S does indeed have 210hp as elcometadc5rsx stated. I've also heard that BOTH the Cobalt SS/SC and the 2005+ RSX-S are both underrated in power. I also wouldn't go as far as saying the Cobalt SS/SC will be the hottest car either. It won't, but it'll appeal to a lot of people. It'll be a hot car, just not the hottest. Keep in mind, there are a lot of other cars that are faster and in the same price range.

Anyway, I'm not trying to argue. I'm just sorting out facts. There's so much misinformation out there.

And to elcometadc5rsx, I wouldn't knock the Cobalt SS/SC until you've tried it. Yeah, I'm an RSX-S owner too but I like to keep an open mind.

good timing too, since the SRT-4 is done this year with a commemorative edition, white with blue stripes ala dodge neon R/T.
