interesting article, coincides with the nurburgring runs.

The Cobalt SS was classified as a LL1 car (under $30,000) and it ran away from all the other cars in its class, but then it also did something no one was expecting. It beat every car in the LL2 class ($30,000 - $60,000), except for Mercedes C63 AMG. It took out the Mitsubishi EVO X MR, Lexus IS F, Dodge Challenger SRT8 and the aforementioned Lotus Elise SC; beating the latter by more than 3.6 seconds around the 4.2 mile road course.
