I like when you drive by people and they stare and then once your past them you see them completely turning their head around to look again....gotta love the "I love that color" comments too

Standard drive through window "Hey! nice car!" - "love your car!" type deal

cutest one was i was at a gas station filling up and this truck was on the other side, a dad with his lil son (probably 6-7 years old) and the kid points over at his dad and says "look ! a race car!" and i just smiled. the kid did a walk around of my car and said "very nice car!" and ran back to his dad. The dad laughed and said "that is a good lookin car!" i said thanks waved at the kid and drove off

Seems like your end goal is pretty clear, good choice for internals. Not big on domestic vehicles but the Cobalt is sharp looking.

Same here. I've had a dozen people compliment the car and then ask "What kind of car is that?". Its like no one knows what a Cobalt is. But at least the next time they see one, they'll know.

last summer on random roads i'd get thumbs up from other performance chevrolet car drivers (cameros and vetts).

People always do stare...and do double takes. it's nice.

I get "nice car" daily. I also get a lot of "what's that color called, it's awesome."

My favorite of all time was these two kids walking down the walk, they were probably 6 or 7, and the boy goes "WHOA!!!!! LOOK AT THAT!!!" as he hits the girl on her shoulder and she sees my car and goes "WHOA!!!! THAT'S SO COOL!!" Honestly those are the best because kids don't know about patronizing, making conversation, or just being nice, they react to what they see in an honest way. If 7 year old kids think my car is cool, then it's good enough for me.

Today I got one from a guy in a huge jacked up truck whom I thought for sure would be a dick, but he says "sweet ride man" and then he gives me the thumbs up and speeds off.

i was in gainesville one day sitting at a redlight and i had 2 guys in a mustang gt fly up beside me and tell me they loved my car its sweet looking, when the light turned green they both give me the thumbs up and tell me hope to see me at the track and then they go on down the road. blew my mind was expect quite the opposite.

Best one I've gotten, besides the nice looking car thing, is

"That's a Cobalt?!?!"?

Gotta love the anonymity of the Black 2.4 SS Sedan

I can sort of see why he would say that.... in your sig if you cover the rest of your car with your hand, the front bumper could possibly have that look... probably because of the large cutout in the center

I live back in the country a ways, and there's a mom and pop gas station in front of my neighborhood. One of those "everybody knows your name" kinda places. Anyway, I was comming out one night and this older guy (mid 50's) pulled in in a black 69 Camaro SS and parked next to me, and got out and was looking at my car. I complimented his car first, and he started talking to me about my car wanting to see the engine and the interior. He seemed impressed. I love when somebody can appreciate the Four-Cylinder Generation like that. I see him driving around a lot now. He gets the nod. Glad I've never been next to him. That Camaro would blow me out the water, haha.

My favorite compliment was when I just got my intake put on and a crotch rocket pulled next to me and I gave her hell. He look over at me when we were going about 25mph and he gave me the thumbs up. We were at the next stop light and he said man that's an awesome ride man. How much hp do you have?

Another one I get is "man that's a beautiful car, does it run as good as it looks"?
