I am in the process of finding a cobalt LS for my daughter. The new car prices, for an automatic, are running around 15,000 dollars for a new car. What are most of you paying for a basic cobalt such as this? I'm trying to get an idea of what a good price is before I talk to the dealers on this week.

 

i payed like around 12.5, but thats absoulute bare bones, barely enough to call it a car model

 

my suggestion to you is dont buy new, your going to lose alot of money the second you drive it off the lot, you can find used LS for really cheap, just make sure they are well keept up and not beat on.

 

i got my lt with auto, airbags and the sports package for 15000 even after ttf and this is when i was 16.

 

IMO buy a new 07...... 10 year 100k warranty.. perfect car for some one who goes A-B cant help you on the price tho....

 

15,000 would be too much. id say dont pay much over 13 unless its loaded to the ground

 

i paid 14100 in may 2005....

 

i bought mine end of oct 07 for 15000, i got all options except leather. kelly blue book on it is 14,180. i got my car with 10 miles on it and now its 1972

 

so you all are paying anywhere from 12,500 to 14,000 with an automatic? Intersting. I appreciate the information. If anyone can offer insight, it is appreciated.

 

You can check out the G5s as well. Im also looking for a slightly used 06/07 cobalt or g5.

The pontiac dealers have the new G5s well equiped here for 14.5k STICKER, and the G5 GT (2.4 ecotec SS equiv) for 18.4k.

The chevy dealer has no SSs of course, and many cobalts in the 15k range, remember thats sticker. When I talked to them they said they had a rebate of 1500 going on. I would assume you be able to get one around invoice, then minus the rebate.

Right now im just checking the papers and autotrader, I would like to get a used one in the 11k and under range.

 

well right now the 07 rebates are 1750 off and 500 auto show bonus cash or 1000 gm loyalty cash. or you can take 0% on them

 

G5s are just as nice but might be able to get a cobalt cheaper since there are more sold but either way the cars are all good. Also the new cobalts come with the 100k warrenty

 

i got my 2005 LS auto with 26k miles with pretty much all options except for leather/fog lights for 11.5k used plus my neg equity an taxes an **** came out to 16.5 total...then add interest and my 5 year loan is for close to 23k...I would recommend a used base to the bone model if you want to save money...

 

well seeing as only one person from the southeast other than the op has said anything, i guess i'll throw in my 2 cents. i paid 13,100 for my ls right off the truck.not a mile on her.and that was after taxes and title fees.that's how they still seem to be goin for at the dealers around here too. i walk around the lot while they fix my car for whatever reason its there for.

^o yeah it's 06 if that matters ^

 

I got my 06 used (barely) came with leather heated seats, sunroof, SS/NC, pioneer system and brand new wheels. I paid 16,995 for it.

 

I dunno, I bought an 05 durring the employee prices thingy a couple years ago I got it for 12,800 for a 5spd. LS barebones car...

I only had it for 11 months and then traded it in for the 06 SS Supercharged!

 

the ls is 15k i got my ss/sc for 5k more so negotiate.

 

i'm paying nearly $15,000 for my '07 LS. it's literally like $14,9-- and my payments are $298/month with $220/month insurance. bought it brand new in june with 8 miles on it, it has a hair over 12,000 on it now.
