2009 Cobalt SS is no slouch, either. Even comes with a mechanical LSD.
There are lots of roads to take you where you're going. All I know is... I'll be the guy in the grey SUV with the chains and J-hooks to pull you out of the barrier when you're off the track :P

Alot of power but still no IRS. Any car guy worth his salt that doesn't order the LSD when it's given as an option for a car like that is a CHOWDERHEAD. Nuff said. I said it "comes with" because it's a no-brainer. The first guy that pulls a one wheel peel o'fury with a 2009 Cobalt SS is getting laughed at by me. I don't care if he's faster, he's dumb enough to own a car without a very essential piece of equipment in it.

Closer to 27,000 (just a quibble) ... what surprises me is that it's just 2 litres ... 260/260 seems high to me somehow for a stock engine - I assumed at first it was the 2.4 ... wonder what that means at the wheels?
