Think of a Cobalt XFE as a challenge, I thought the weight was closer to 2600, you can fix the drag problem. Freakzoid? put up some pretty big numbers for you to try and beat.

And 155 hp of the 09-10 isn't to bad either. I'd like to try a SS suspension though. Lots of Ion Redlines up there for under $4000, benefit of the better suspension/brakes and 50 extra HP and more torque probably at a way lower RPM so easier to enjoy daily.

They also get better seats which is getting more important to me than HP. Cobalt LS seats are just OK, LT's good step better, SS look and sound pretty great from the reviews.
