I maybe trading my cobalt in the near future. Reason....couple minor problems in the past couple months. My car also goes to the dealership tomorrow for clunking sound coming from the rear end. Made up my mind that one more thing goes wrong with my SS/SC I'm trading it in on a truck. Found a nice 06 Nissan Titan in town....also a nice 07 Dodge Ram 1500 at the same dealership.

I agree that people get bored with their cars and just want to move on to something else. When I get rid of the balt it will be because I get bored with it and want to get away from modding a FWD car.

Mine goes in to the dealership tomorrow to get the sunroof switch bezel fixed properly. Mine is an '06 and only have 10,000 miles on it. Not driven as a DD.

The engine is mounted the wrong way and the wrong wheels spin when you stomp the gas.

I love how my car looks, the performance is not up to my expectations. My car hates hot weather I mean really hates it, onlytime of the year when my car is fun is winter time that sucks.. FWD blows mostly because our 1st gear our should i say our 1/2 gear.. If I had the money I would move on to something else supra, cobra, EVO
