The seats are decorated with the "SS" logo and are nicely sculpted and supportive. Storage is limited and, while fit and finish has improved, the overall layout still looks a bit too "plasticky". That's because the Cobalt SS is a 2+2 type of car. Your friends won't be too happy when you take them for a ride. Just use your ears! Meanwhile, the rear seats are rather difficult to reach despite the folding/sliding mechanism of the front perches. As for the turbo boost gauge (on the front left pillar), forget about it. The titanium-faced sport gauges sure are attractive, but the speedometer proves hard to read at a glance the digits are too small and not contrasting enough.

The latter, which are decorated with the "SS" logo, are nicely sculpted and supportive. Inside the driving cockpit Thanks to a wide set of doors, access to the front buckets is easy. Another thing I didn't like about the spoiler is that it makes the trunk lid heavier to manipulate, which is a shame considering the generous cargo room available. Catching the competition off-guard is always fun. Without the spoiler, the Cobalt SS is a stealthy little athlete, which is perfectly fine for a lot of drivers. Of course, many other upgrades define Chevrolet's hot coupe, including a more aggressive front fascia and a drag-reducing body kit. Personally, I think that the Cobalt's rear spoiler garners too much attention and significantly affects rearward visibility. In this case, either you love it or you hate it. WRX-like spoiler What better way to catch the attention of tuning enthusiasts than to add a huge spoiler on the trunk? Just look at what Subaru does. The 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt SS offers very interesting value in terms of performance. This turbocharged Cobalt sure is a solid performer, but the biggest surprise comes from its handling and braking capabilities - two key attributes for any aspiring sports car. The Chevrolet Cobalt SS showcases a number of skills and sporty dynamics which the regular model had yet to achieve. Chevrolet engineers managed to create a sporty compact car that can rival the Mazdaspeed3 and Honda Civic Si.
