I too also choose the 2 door cuz the back looks a lot cooler. More of a corvette look with the tail lights rather then th taurus look w/ the sedan. thats my opinion tho.

2 door. It just looks a lot hotter with its rear end up in the air with those quad taillights. Plus, I don't have kids and rarely have more than one passenger. Coupes are sexier!

I've always prefered the sportier look of a two door car and the Cobalt is no exception. As well, as many have mentioned, the rear of the car looks much better on the coupes than the sedans imo.

i bought a coupe because i have no need for a four door... actually now that I think about it, I've only owned 2 four-doors (79 Horizon, 85 Celebrity). Weird.

I think the coupe just looks faster.

The Coupes are the best. Sedans are for soccer moms.

Although I love the coupe.... I can't deny that the four door cobalt tops the pants off any other four door enconomy car as far as looks go.

G6 is a better looking 4 door, but the Coupe is a better looking than a sedan.

I think the 4 door cobalts are a little on the ugly side. I can't believe what a difference a different rear end makes.

I have a 4 door and I love the look of my car. Im sorry that most of you would think my 4 door is disgusting, but I am always driving around with 3 or 4 people in my car so I need the room for everyone. The coupe is nice if its only you driving or you have one other person with you. The backseat is way too small in the coupe. Thats what turned me away from it.

Surprisingly my friend who is 6'2" has no problems at all sitting in my backseat because of the tilt they put on them (I have the leather interior on the LS so maybe it's different than cloth, not sure). We were on a 5 or so hour road trip and he never complained once about being too cramped.

Glad you like your sedan though, it's more practical for a lot of people particularly if they care about their passengers, I'm just selfish j/k. GM seemed to do a good job on the backseats in the Cobalt considering I had nothing but complaints about people getting shoved in the back of my old Cavy. Just don't stick them in the middle .

I originally ordered the 4-door and quickly called and changed my order to the coupe when I realized the rear end is different. I'm really digging those tail lights.

I like my SS but the Cobalt Sedan loaded up would make a sick winter ride when your not driving the SS. I've drove a few Cobalt Sedans for rentals when my car was in for service.

I like them, very cozy and you don't feel **** on the road all the little bumps you do in the SS and I personally think more sound proofing was done in the sedan so you really feel the richness of the radio and music that plays in the car, like your at a concert. Get OnStar, heated seats, winter tires, premium sound, tint it and put 16' chromies on there. Bling bling motha f*cka

I may end up leasing a sedan soon. Ditch the 94 Cavailer Z24. The Cavy has been good to me but after 200k miles it's time to take one last trip to the drag strip and hook a 100-150 Shot of Wet Spray down the track once or twice(how ever many times it takes) and kill my 3.1L, excuse for something better Bet I could squeeze a low 14 easy with that kind of spray.

I tell you what... that damn 3.1 is bullet proof. I've been so hard on it and it keeps going! phew thats GM for ya. Might have a plain jane interior but they knew how to build those motors.
