Hey, does anyone know if the Pontiac Pursuit has a model equivalent to the Cobalt SS? 68.14.20.221 16:30, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
According to the
HHR page, GM will discontinue the Cobalt SS Supercharged in 2008 in favor of a turbocharged version. The engine in this new model will be the same turbocharged 2.0L four found in the
Solstice GXP and
Sky Red Line.

Hey, I live near the Lordstown Assembly plant, and I myself own a Cobalt. Does anyone know if the Cobalt's replacement in 2010 is still called the Cobalt? I know that Lordstown is more worried if the plant even stays open (which is surprising considering that the plant was updated with a new assembly line and paint shop not too long ago), but my Cobalt is a very good car and has become known to be reliable. I'd like the name to stick. The Cavalier was around for 22 years anyways, why not the Cobalt? Jgera5 01:01, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
I would have to agree. It's sad that production won't be in my backyard anymore, as they are moving to Mexico. Well, at least GM Lordstown is staying open. Jgera5 14:54, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
I have removed "There are countless different upgrades for the LSJ motors, including injectors, intakes, headers, exhausts, and supercharger upgrades/replacements. After-market parts may void the original factory warranty, but often offer superior performance for far less money than GMPP parts. When installing after-market performance kits, it will be essential to have the car's Engine Control Unit retuned." from the performance section as it is _completely_ useless and off track. If you disagree, bring it up in the discussion before putting it back it or I will simply refer this to a moderator. -- RyanKlein 20:27, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
I am removing it because though it will be released later, it is going to be marketed as a 2008. If you want to make a note that it will be released later in 2008, go for it but its not a 2008.5, simply a 2008 model year.-- RyanKlein 07:28, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
I remove "Even after all these performance modifications the Chevrolet Cobalt SS will have a hard time running consistant 12 second passes." from the performance section as this is just garbage and has nothing to do with it, and they cannot spell check. If you disagree, please bring it up in the discussion before adding it again, thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by RyanKlein ( talk • contribs) 07:31, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
I understand the desire to convert US MPG figures into metric and UK MPG, but the result has become an unreadable jumble of numbers, especially when both city and highway are written for both manual and automatic transmissions. Is UK MPG conversion necessary if the Cobalt is not sold there (I'm assuming it's not)? Also, it would be easier to read if it were written as "24 city/34 highway (9.8L-6.9L/100km, 29-41 imp MPG)", but that would mean not using the convert template, which does not yet support a range of MPG for conversion. -- Vossanova o< 17:08, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
"All Cobalts are currently manufactured at GM's Lordstown Assembly plant in Lordstown, Ohio."
This is misleading, as it makes the reader think this vehicle is made in America. The great majority of it is sourced out of the country and final assembly is in Ohio. Italian transmission, Korean emissions equipment, Japanese electronics, Canadian engine. A small portion of the money paid for the car goes toward American made parts. The line should read:
"Although primarily made from imported parts, final assembly of all Cobalts is performed at GM's Assembly plant in Lordstown, Ohio.

The result of the proposal was merge. Jgera5 ( talk) 16:26, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
I propose that the Pontiac G5 article be merged into the Chevrolet Cobalt article; because these vehicles are just another example of badge engineering. VX1NG ( talk) 14:32, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
If Pontiac G5 and Chevrolet Cobalt are merged then the section containing the Chevrolet Cobalt in Brazil needs to be removed and either have a new page created for it or that section should be ported into that of the Chevrolet Aveo, since the Brazilian Cobalt is the Aveo sedan with a different grille. I tend to agree with you to make things cleaner but with the aforementioned in mind. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abnnassif ( talk • contribs) 20:20, 24 November 2013 (UTC)
