Seems decently quick for the time but in sedan version at least it as an Opel Astra H with even blander styling. The coupe is a bit better but I don't think its any more than a meh.
Well, the Cobalt wasn't a blow-you-away car. I just think it was better than a lot of other compacts of its time. It just hits me in that sort of way. Again- not sublime, but not entirely boring either.
