I say Summit White looks best, but I bought Arrival Blue because it was limited. I didn't think I'd like the Orange Metallic color, but I thought it looked great on the Cobalt LS I saw driving around UCLA. I *hate* silver cars, but silver cobalts actually look really nice. Yellow is okay sometimes, but I really don't like red or black or purple cars

Wow, those pictures just don't do the colors justice. Anyways, I would say it depends on the model. Silver and Orange look great on the SS S/C but not as good on the others in my opinion. I also like the Arrival Blue, but I'm a little biased on that one.

I'm torn between the Arrival Blue and the Silver. If White was an option I would choose it.

BTW, a dealership can order SS/SC's in white, but they need to order 5 as per a fleet.

BLACK looks best on the SS and Arrival Blue looks best on the SS/SC

I say Black because I think it matches the gunmetal painted wheels, and is just plain cool. I guess I am biased though, because I ordered mine in black (and I just got word yesterday that my order was finally accepted and that my car will be here in March).

I also like Arrival Blue. I would have ordered the car in that color if it was still available.

Have to admit that I really like the Rally Yellow too. Not something I would own, but I considered it for a while. It is a really nice shade of yellow, and it suits the car.

oddly enough, black was my 1st choice....with red being my lease, but my dealership only had a red cobalt that had all of the features i was looking for- in fact they had just drove it off the truck that morning. once i saw it, then drove it... i loved it! besides you can see me coming!
RED RED RED.....VICTORY!!!!!!!!!

Definately.. It's the only color I think that matches the wheels the best..

I love my Black SS/SC.. wouldn't buy it any other way if I had another chance to do it all over again

My car is originally from Pittsburgh and was driven up here to Buffalo, NY... There were none in the area at the time (May-June) and found my car in PA.. Of course I just HAD to be picky with it being Black, with black/red inserts..

If I could do it again I would buy a Sunburst Orange SS S/C (rare in my area) or second choice would be Rally Yellow (love yellow cars).

I picked silver, not only because I have a Silver SC/SS but because it looks awesome with the stock rims, and with the accented interior pieces!

There was a black base model the same price as the white one I bought. It looked the buisness but black cars get so hot on the inside during the summer here.
