What's your favorite thing about your Cobalt?
I did a search and didn't see this topic so here it goes. What is your favorite thing about your Cobalt, or Cobalts in general? Personally I love the spoilers, both the high rise and the low one. On my LT the low wing just gives it an amazing sight-line on an already beautiful car. So what's your favorite part of your car?

The sleeper aspect - It's just a Cobalt, until I publicly humiliate the guy in his fancy BMW, then he gets butt hurt and wont look at you at the next red light!!!

I honest like everything about it besides little stuff that goes wrong. I don't see how people hate on the ss it's a sweet looking car. I have a 06 Lsj and I can't think of another car I would get from 06 lol oh and how many other 4 banger supercharged cars out there?

Haha I like that fact it a pretty simple car on the inside doesn't have all that BS the newer cars have in them. Trying to look like a jet fighter inside. Also u don't see many tc's, there fun as hell, and when I wana get rowdy the car enjoys doing it

Even though mine isn't very modded due to financial reasons, I love how relatively cheap it is to mod these cars--- specifically, the LNF.
There aren't many other cars you can pull an extra 50-100 whp for less than $500. I remember when I had an S2000, it would've cost $1000+ just to draw out ~20 whp with full bolt-ons. If I wanted more power, I had to spend upwards of $6k for a supercharger or turbocharger kit, which were mostly unreliable.
You put full bolt-ons on the Cobalt SS and get a nice tune, you're pushing close to 400 whp for less than you'd pay to get those numbers out of most other cars.
And speaking of S2000s, our cars (between 2850-3000 lbs) only weigh ~150 lbs more (curb weight) than a stock S2K (2700-2850 lbs)! And we have more space for everything. Kind of mind boggling, no?
We're also able to make our cars look fantastic with just some ******* plastidip doing the Evo mod! lol That's pretty awesome to me.

I also wanna add I agree with the sleeper comments. Our cars get overlooked like crazy by ******* who think, "It's just a Cobalt with a turbo," all while jerking off to an Impreza/Lancer with a turbo, aka the WRX STi or Evo.

Friend 1: If you're going to make it in time you need to leave now, you drive a Cobalt not a Ferrari.
Friend 2: Yeah you drive a 4 cylinder thinking it's all that.
Me: You know *****'s WRX is a 4 cylinder right?
Friend 2: Well it's a WRX it's supposed to be fast.
I just left right after that.
