Heel toe shifting in Cobalt SS/SC?

Not for me it isn't. The brake pedal does not drop enough. Even if it did if you trail brake into a corner while feeding in gas it would be too low. Overall it is too low.
I guess I don't heel toe in a traditional manner. My feet are too big to move like that. I use the sides of my foot. Left side for braking and right for gas. Dipping the right side of my foot doesn't work well in this car. The gas pedal is just too low. I think I will try a gas pedal cover and see what happens.

That is how I do it too (or used to in the 240sx), and it is kind of tricky with this car (i have the IRL, but the pedels feel the same). I thought about adding something to add some height to the gas, but haven't figured out what materal would work the best without being too heavy.
