2.2 cobalt question

Hey how are these engines/cars. Are they worth buying? If you had to pick this car or a 2006 SS naturally asperated cobalt which one would you buy? My friend has a choice between the 2

2006 SS = 26000k
2009 2.2 = 35000k

thanks

I have a g5 gt which is the brother to the ss 2.4 and yes its a good car especially if your friend decides to mod it. Also the ss/2.4 has 173hp compared to the 2.2 lap which only has 155. Our they both manual or auto tranny? as that would also be a contributing factor in buying which one.

yes 09 2.2 they dont make 2.4 for 2009, but you knew that (i bet you were asking if it had the 2.4 added to it) but I think they might be auto. This is more for a College car and the guy doesnt really want a stick (thank god) this was more of a which car is better. Thanks again everyone.

if he wants to mod the car, get the SS, if he just wants a car to drive and not mod, get the 2.2. I had a 2.2 and then got my G5 GT, the GT is much better by just the way it looks. lol
