New Motor Trend Article

Check it out http://www.motortrend.com/features/c...cobalt_ss.html


For the reading impared....America's Top 40 New Cars. Cobalt SS/TC came in 16th...not too bad (against ALL cars...not just like small car). For example number 1 is the Audi R8 and number 2 is the Corvette ZR1.

Oh no, we beat the Civic SI...I'll ship the link off to my buddy ensuring to show him that his SI is no match for my TC both in performance AND Motor Trend opinion...+2 for me I'll fulfill the last +1 at the strip this summer when we go head to head .

There was a car and driver i got a little bit ago that said the Cobalt TC beat out all cars in its "class" for their road test... and they also preferred it over most of car in the class higher than it.

the civic SI is hardly a match for a lightly modded 2.2 by torque, HP means nothing until you get to the "impressive" 140MPH mark the SI can get to, the 2.2 can't touch that stock, and against a 2.4 or any 2.0 ecotec, it's over at any speed.
