Cobalt This sporty compact was faced with the difficult job of replacing the popular Cavalier, but whether the base model, or the supercharged SS is chosen, is has made for a great replacement.

Default Thinking about buying 2008.

I am thinking about buying used 2008 Chevy Cobalt LT. They seem good priced but wonder what some current owners like/dislike about them. Please let me know what your thoughts are about the Cobalt!! Thanks!

I have an '06 LS since it was new, its a decent car but I wouldn't recommend it someone.

Pros:
fuel economy
peppy - nice acceleration, can quickly pass cars if something is misjudged
decent sound system
back seat is comfortable for 2 adults
good handling
auto lights
trip computer

Cons:
very unconformable on long trips
unsafe - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GVkjDm23_c
material of seats is very cheap - stains do not come out
trunk opening is small

2 yrs. old:
door handles stick
drivers door handle breaks off
key no longer opens trunk

3 yrs old:
door handles stick so bad door has to be opened from inside sometimes
all door latches have rusted
paint is chipping off the bottom inside of doors
