I bought my 2007 Chevy Cobalt in 2010. The vehicle had about 43,000 miles on it at the time and I'm now up to 70 some thousand miles. This car is itty bitty (I have the coupe version). If you are tall, I would not recommend you drive this car. I've had no problems with my engine or other necessary parts to operate the vehicle. However, my accessories have proven otherwise. It seems that the secondary parts to this vehicle were made cheaply. Like most cars nowadays, the interior is primarily plastic. Many of the buttons in my vehicle that control the door locks and music features no longer work. The digital screen that shows me the time and music that I'm playing only works sometimes. My blinkers broke entirely, I have to manually set and reset them and they do not make sound. The speakers that come with this vehicle are terrible and do not work correctly. Only one speaker plays at all times, sometimes another will kick in randomly which scares me as I'm driving. This car is a 4 cylinder and speeds up fairly quick. The gas mileage on this car isn't too bad, I don't often need to fill up on gas. The Chevy Cobalt is reliable but not superior to other vehicles. I would never drive my Cobalt through large amounts of snow or rain. Since this is a small vehicle, it is only equipped with two-wheel drive and will slide in bad weather. I love the vibrant red color of this car and the paint has lasted well with no signs of rusting away. Overall, this vehicle has gotten me where I've needed to go over the past six years, but has gotten on my nerves on several occasions. There is no wow factor about this vehicle, it's very average and they no longer make this type of vehicle.

It is a nice small car. It has been reliable over the couple of years that I have owned it. It is still running quite nicely. The only things that I have disliked about the car is that the doors are huge, but that is normal for a coupe style car, that is just personal preference. Other than that it is a nice reliable car that I would recommend to anyone. I got the car when I was 16 so it is a nice economically beneficial car for your teenagers.

It is/was a good value. It has good gas mileage. It has help up well over the years. It is pretty zippy for a four cylinder.
