i absolutely love this thread.
2006 i bought a brand new cobalt. had ordered one of the sc ones but the insurance was ridiculous when it came in. bummed me out but i wound up with a regular cobalt w a 5 speed. Moved to northern Va in the fall of 06. 2009 my son was born, and my dad passed so inherited his Harley. I rode that to work a lot and on days off. but i kept the cobalt. it developed a few issues, but, they got fixed. 2015 i was able to finally buy a modern muscle car, and got an 05 GTO. the cobalt was used for back n forth to work. the GTO was a play toy/travel toy when i didnt have the wife and kid. the bike was a nice day off toy. fast forward to 2018 i was able to order a new Wrangler. wife decided to bounce, so used the GTO as trade in, got my Jeep and still have the cobalt and bike. Cobalt has 261k on it, original clutch (it chatters like hell when cold) , engine has never been apart. has had a few issues all resolved. My driver seat is completely wore out LOL but i love it. its not saying much but at least its faster then the Jeep and i can pass people LOL. oh and 30mpg vs 18 on a 90 mile round trip commute, its a no brainer.
