Wrong. Put a Chevrolet or Saturn badge on it, wouldn't sell half as much. People buy it because its a Honda, not because of any truly redeeming qualities.
-
Its amazing what people will buy as long as it has a chrome 'H' or a Toyota badge on it.
-
Its not a good looking car by any stretch, but neither is it incredibly ugly. Just kind of neutral and blah.
-
The Cobalt sedan isn't ugly, and really neither is the Corolla, current or future. In fact pretty much every compact sedan I can think of is incredibly boring. The only difference is the Corolla doesn't have a snazzy coupe or 5-dr hatch to add some spunk to the line-up. The Matrix isn't much better than the sedan.
-
You're right, it looks a lot like the Sonata.
-
The Malibu sedan looks MUCH better. Looks like they injected all the passion they had available into the coupe.
-
Cool, thanks griffon.
-
I wouldn't buy a Cobalt sedan, either. :AH-HA_wink:

So this Is the one we'll see in the US as well?

Dunno. Someone posted this at another community I post at this morning.

Yes. Yes it is.
-
There's definitely nothing original about it. You look at it and get the feeling you've seen it all before.
-
I just want to SEE the MCE Cobalt.

The horn in my pop-in-law's 97 F150 is loud as all f@#k. The horn in our 06 Escape is nice and American and the horn in my 01 Crapalier is half-dead.

Buy me something while you're at it. A gently used Cobalt SS/SC would suit me just fine, thanks.

Automakers are increasingly going global

While arguing about cars in another forum I post at, a few of the Japan Inc defenders have said that Toyota's recent drop in quality is probably because more of their parts are American-sourced. You're right, it is disgusting. -
There's a higher percentage of Toyota's in Lexington and surrounding area than anywhere else I've ever been, likely because a lot of people work at the Georgetown plant, so a lot of people get a discount.
-
Interior detail, design, and quality matter in vehicles less than $32k its still a definite factor. Thinking otherwise is idiotic. It should matter in EVERY vehicle, from $10k Aveo's to $100,000 Cadillacs. The Cobalt is a shining example of a car thats 90% there, but lacking things like better interior design and materials quality.
-
Having a B-pillar doesn't affect the perceived or factual quality of a vehicle. Having sub-par materials and/or a poor interior design does.

HA! And I'm a year older than you. You know you're old when you look at teenagers with the same distaste that adults looked at you with when you were a teenager.

I like the TL.
