That statement begs the question, "what the hell are they revolting against? decent cars?".
I mean really, if I was from another country, came here on vacation and picked up a Chevy Cobalt rental at the airport, I'd turn right around and go home. It's that pathetic. If I were a foreigner, I wouldn't want to be in a country that considers the Cobalt a viable means of transportation. It says "We Americans don't care about quality! Who needs it? If they notice how bad it is, we'll just strap a supercharger on it and call it an SS". Honestly, a pogo stick is a more practical means of transport than a Cobalt.
It's cheaply made and uncomfortable. The engines were designed in World War 2 and the suspension is a bad joke with no punch line. There's a lot of optional crud, but who cares? If you put expensive jewelry on a pig.... it's still a pig.
The cheapest Kia is better made and will last longer than a Cobalt. Even though it's cheap, it doesn't try to dress up and pretend it's something that it's not.
So there you have it. If you want a cheap, decent means of transportation, buy something from Korea...or a pogo stick. . YEAR TO YEAR CHANGES FOR THE CHEVROLET COBALT: 2006: In a valiant attempt at dressing up its little crud, Chevrolet expanded the engine and model choices for 2006. Base models were for some reason renamed as well. The LS became the LT, and LT versions morphed into the LTZ. They even added an SS sedan and coupe, powered by a 171-hp 4-cyl engine. 2007: None . COMMON PROBLEMS FOR THE CHEVROLET COBALT: Fuel level sensor (2005-2006) - $300
