I'm curious why Edmunds stated that 260HP 2 liter intercooled turbo was introduced by Chevy HHR SS. Surely they know better. That engine was introduced by Solstice GXP and Saturn Sky Red Line almost a full year earlier. Not that it matters any, but I have been noticing that since initial reviews of those two roadsters, they have been mentioned precious little by any motorsport magazines. It's almost like, "if you can't say anything bad, don't say anything at all" But I am not comparing Solstice/Sky to Cobalt SS. If you need more room, by all means buy the Cobalt, and if that is not enough, buy an SUV. But performance wise, Solstice/Sky are right up there, in 350Z, S2000, Boxster and Cayman category.
