This Year's Model Updates:

The Cobalt is a replacement for the aged Cavalier and like its predecessor it's available in both coupe and sedan body styles.

Pros:
  • Smooth ride and sporty handling, torquey four-cylinder engine, premium content for basic-car price.
Cons:
  • A few cheap plastic interior parts, odd exterior styling details.

  • Hot rod - 2005 Chevrolet Cobalt
    By -

    I got the sports package with my Cobalt for another $1645. My favorite things it comes with is the XM satelitte radio free for three months and the white faced sport gauges. This is a very fun car to drive, also very appealing to look at. Ive heard alot of negative things about the spoiler, but I like it. You will see the younger generation driving this car, definitely not a family car. Chevy did a good job with this one. They will be very competitive with the Hondas and Toyotas of the world. Maybe not take over but they have a good start. Last thing my dealer said was " youve got yourself a real hot rod".

  • Dont Complain Until You Drive It - 2005 Chevrolet Cobalt

    This is an amazing vehicle. The 1st American car Ive owned in years. I needed something that would provide good mileage in these outrageous gas-priced times, but didnt expect an inexpensive car to provide the class, comfort and quality that the Cobalt does! Exceptionally well designed and engineered. Fit, finish and workmanship rival the cars from Japan and Germany that Ive owned. The powertrain is an absolute joy. The Ecotec 4 mated to the 5 speed manual work perfectly together providing spunk and great economy. Then theres the 7 speaker Pioneer sound system. Smooth, very quiet, exceptional build quality, its all here!

    I bought a 2005 Cobalt in March 2005. Unfortunately, I was hit almost head on by someone who did not stop at a stop sign. Luckily, however, i found out exactly how safe the car was and I am about to receive my new Cobalt. I am even more excited about getting this. It truly was a safe and smart investment. Kudos to Chevrolet for making such a wonderful car. I love the interior and exterior also. I have no complaints about the car or the dealership that sold it to me. I am forever a devoted Chevrolet bowtie!

    This car is such a smooth ride. I am glad I decided to buy this car. The price is also a bargain. I got a great family car at a great cost.

  • Awesome car...I love It! - 2005 Chevrolet Cobalt
    By -

    I bought this car because my son thought it was "sick"...being a good thing....I needed a fuel economy car and havent had a "car" for many, many years to drive on a daily basis...except for my Corvette. This is a really comfortable, sporty, fun car to drive and Im very happy I bought it! The stereo with Pioneer speakers kicks and its got quite a lot of spirit for a 4 cylinder car. I love it, love it, love it!

    I love driving this car! I deal with a lot of traffic and it is very responsive weaving in & out of traffic. It also has good get up & go when you need it. The only problem is that my air conditioner went out with 950 miles. Everything else is awesome!!

    I LOVE IT! It is a fantastic car. I heard it is called the "Little Vette" and it deserves the nickname. Extremely happy with my Cobalt:>)

  • Great third vehicle - 2005 Chevrolet Cobalt

    This car deserves your consideration. I liked the Mazda3 better, but the Cobalt got a good crash test rating. It handles well, rides well, and was quieter than all of the other small cars I tested. I havent had a Chevrolet before. They are known for making good trucks, not cars, so I got the extended warranty, but I dont think I will need it. This Cobalt seems as well built as many more expensive cars.. I was impressed.

    This car handles like a dream. It has alot of cool features that I love for an inexpensive car. It configures your gas mileage without you having to do a thing. And the CD player is standard in all models which is always nice :). The 4 door sedan is roomy and comfy and the trunk is huge. I highly recommend the 2005 Chevy Cobalt.

  • An ACTUAL review - 2005 Chevrolet Cobalt
    By -

    The Cobalt is, thankfully, a massive improvement over recent Cavaliers. The car just feels so *solid*, and I havent felt that from a GM small car in years. I enjoy driving it even more than the Pontiac G6 I test drove, and I feel a lot more connected to the road than I did in the Mazda 3 when I test drove it. The interior is the nicest surprise, too -- all the high quality materials are just such a surprise considering the Cavaliers interior. You all should test drive this car, you wont be disappointed.
