What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Chevrolet Cobalt

Price of the Chevrolet Cobalt: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 2dr Coupe 155-horsepower 2.2L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 Cheapest new car I could find, cheaper than a brand new base model Hyundai Accent.
2009 2dr Coupe turbocharged 260hp 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 This car is a bang for buck performance car. You will not find a better performer for the price. You can often get one out the door for not much more than 20k, and sometimes less...
2008 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.2L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 Less fashionable and thus less expensive than its competitors.
2007 2dr Coupe 148-horsepower 2.2L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 0% interest, no down
2006 4dr Sedan 145-horsepower 2.2L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 low payment
2005 4dr Sedan 145-horsepower 2.2L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 low price
Price of the Chevrolet Cobalt: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 4dr Sedan 155-horsepower 2.2L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 While allowing for the difference between compact and sub-compact ratings, the Fiesta had an overall better pricepoint in the various trim levels than Cobalt. In all honesty Cobalt was a close second but the pricing is what broke the deal on getting on

What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Buick LaCrosse

Price of the Buick LaCrosse: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.0L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Low residual values make it expensive to lease.
2007 4dr Sedan 200-horsepower 3.8L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		 A bit overpriced considering the differences between Impala and LaCrosse.
