Yeah I'm 6 ft as well. I washed my moms rental car (Cobalt LS) earlier today, and then moved it out of the drive way so I could wash my grandpa's lexus..
All I did was do a U-Turn in the street with the cobalt, (cuz I'm not insured to drive it) and then pressed the gas a lil hard before I stopped and I was like, woah...
that thing has a shit load of power...I've never driven a fast/lightweight car, so it was very odd. (in a good way)
All I've driven was the taurus & the es 330.
I fit a hell of a lot better in it than I thought I would too...
I dunno...if I wasn't able to get the camaro in the future I'd consider the cobalt...assuming they haven't screwed it up by then (the design I mean)
Legacy you said you didn't like the back of the cobalt - you could always go aftermarket for different headlight setup/new bumper.
Which rear end is it you don't prefer?, the one with just the outside brake lights? or the one that somewhat reminds me of the impala?
