so basically because it has the Cobalt name you dont care about it. even tho it shares very little with a base cobalt…just like an Evo is alot different than a base Lancer and a Sti over an Impreza etc…same difference. it is what it is. its still a good track car at a good price. thats great that you dont care about it, but you are 1 dude, thats why there are other cars to choose from. so go drive / read about them and dont waste your time worrying about ones that you dont care about then.
