'08 Chevy Cobalt, Manual

I bought a 2008 Chevy Cobalt as not only my first car purchase but my first stick shift, as well. Amazing car for first maunal drivers. Only getting rid of it because of Michigan winters. If not for that, I'd drive it until the wheels fell off!

Dodge Dakota 02, 4 door Burgandy over silver a

I love the car. It was used when I purchased. It was clean and they covered all the safety tests and fluids checks. I purchased the car to save on fuel and to prolong the life of my 02 Dodge Dakota. I get average of 33 miles to the gallon and I can haul my dogs in it comfortable with folding the back seats down.

My First Car I Bought myself!

It's been great so far! Love the look! I just turned 19 and wanted to buy my own car and have it be my own and be something I trusted and loved to drive everyday which is exactly what this car is!

Got a great deal from the dealership.

Nice simple car, easy to care for and seems pretty roomy. Drives well and no special confusing gadgets. Nice overall vehicle.

Good Car

I love my car. I just have a child and it is not really a toddler friendly car. It is a little hard to get a baby seat into a 2 door car. I would recommend for teenagers/college students.

Average car.

Nice simple reliable vehicle.

I love the simple comfort of the cobalt. It's roomier than most comparable sedans. Handles great and looks stylish.

Still good

Still does good, I've had to fix a few problems. But that is to be expected. Great gas mileage, good for road trips too.
