Excellent buy. by Joe from Boston on 12/22/2008. Trim: 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt LT1 Coupe, Owned less than 1 year.
1
Pros: Economical to own. Minimal maintenance.
Cons: Small trunk opening. Trunk is spacious but opening should be bigger to get suitcases & boxes in & out.
Overall review: Vehicle runs very well, very efficient on gas & oil. Highly recommend to anyone looking for economy. Very competitive with small foreign economy cars. I prefer to buy American.

Happy with my Balt! by Dousman Bob on 04/24/2013. Trim: 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt LS Sedan, Owned 5 years.
Useful?
Pros: Great gas mileage for 25k/year - summer average 39mpg winter average 34.5 (wisconsin winters), basic comforts are good. Easy to change oil filter (has cartridge not spin on)
Cons: Seat padding is failing after 4 years (100,000 miles), couple of small rattles, brakes will pulse on occasion. small trunk opening
Overall review: As I drive 25k/year, the only 'modification' I have done is replace the air filter with a K&N stock size filter and use mobil1 0w-30 fuel economy oil. As a commuter car, and as basic transportation, this one is reliable, cheap to own and drive.

Not so bad. by Dark Knight on 12/03/2012. Trim: 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt LS Sedan, Owned less than 1 year.
Useful?
Pros: I understand what everyone is saying about the electrail issues. I have speakers that go in and out. Other than that I have had no major issues. My cobalt has over 61,000 miles on it. It gets good gas mileage and is at a good price when buying.
Cons: I hate the fact that the speakers go in and out.
Overall review: I would buy one used so all the major issues are taking care of and always get a extended warrtanry.
