As my family had never owned an American car before, I didn't really know what to expect when buying one, given the reputation of American cars. There is no wow factor about this vehicle, it's very average and they no longer make this type of vehicle. Overall, this vehicle has gotten me where I've needed to go over the past six years, but has gotten on my nerves on several occasions.

I love the vibrant red color of this car and the paint has lasted well with no signs of rusting away. Since this is a small vehicle, it is only equipped with two-wheel drive and will slide in bad weather. I would never drive my Cobalt through large amounts of snow or rain. The Chevy Cobalt is reliable but not superior to other vehicles. The gas mileage on this car isn't too bad, I don't often need to fill up on gas. This car is a 4 cylinder and speeds up fairly quick. Only one speaker plays at all times, sometimes another will kick in randomly which scares me as I'm driving. The speakers that come with this vehicle are terrible and do not work correctly. My blinkers broke entirely, I have to manually set and reset them and they do not make sound. The digital screen that shows me the time and music that I'm playing only works sometimes. Many of the buttons in my vehicle that control the door locks and music features no longer work. Like most cars nowadays, the interior is primarily plastic. It seems that the secondary parts to this vehicle were made cheaply.

However, my accessories have proven otherwise. I've had no problems with my engine or other necessary parts to operate the vehicle. If you are tall, I would not recommend you drive this car. This car is itty bitty (I have the coupe version). The vehicle had about 43,000 miles on it at the time and I'm now up to 70 some thousand miles.
