I believe it! There are pretty quick too, Hahn Racecraft got their hands on one and took it to the dragstrip and manage a 13.2 @ 104 completely stock. I was impressed...

As much as I like the Cobalt, that's quite surprising.

Yep


Honestly, I'd still rather take the Mazdaspeed 3 or WRX over it. While I am surprised with results, I still don't trust an American compact car.

I still want the Lancer out of that group. I used to sell WRX's and not sold on the looks of it. The Mazdaspeed if the steering is anything like the 6 I don't want it.

Cobalt SS has always been a performer..... but i hear this one is even better.

Cool write-up. I wouldn't have expected the SS to do that well.
