bad design flaws???
Hmm, I must be lucky, of less picky then everyone else. I don't mind the interior myself. It may be cheap plastic, but it hasn't cracked at all (Like my old Eclipse) The headlights arnt hard to get out, nothing rattles, the sunroof is prefect. Never had an issue with the cup holders. Paint still looks flawless, other then normal rock chips but no fading or random chips like others have mentioned. The only time its been at the dealership was for my reverse switch going out, and the sinroof bezel broke, but I was out of the dealership in a half hour, so not a big deal. I dunno, my 05 with 53xxx miles is still in tip top condition.

My Scion tC had way more squeaks and rattles than the Cobalt. The interior looked nice when new but it scratched if you even looked at it wrong.

Haha yes i was waiting for someone to say that. Just little things like that get on my freakin nerves. And for examples...Like not the door jam but at the bottom where the first part of the inside trim is...it is ******* impossible not to get that dirty no matter how hard you try. its to high it shouldve been lower. the steering wheel doesnt go up enough...but thats just personal...the plastic is to cheap..the stuff scuffs sooooo easy its like touching butter. And as for the lt cause thats what im driving the seat materials suck...i spilt drops of water on the passenger seat ...and it STAINED IT! wtf?? I didnt even know that was possible...theres a billion more things but I forget them until I clean it.

The tC's don't wear at all well. I babied the hell out of it and it looked better than probably 95% of them when I sold it. I had to get rid of it because I got tired of driving the dealer's POS Toyota Corolla loaner cars while they fixed my POS Scion.
