Cobalt SS?

The Regal is 10 times the car the Cobalt SS was. Comparing the two is laughable.

It's an entry-level luxury sports sedan. It probably won't appeal to many people on this site.

And you obviously haven't driven the car or followed its development if you think it's just "here to there transportation."

No I havn't. This is the first I've seen or heard of it so that's all I have to go by. Notice how they don't show the entire car and hide the rear doors of the car on these promotional videos. I also own a 2007 Chevy Impala and a 2011 Honda Pilot. They get me from here to there just fine. I am biased as only my Camaro SS along with my antique cars seems to do more.
I hope your new Buick sells well.

I realize that. I'm talking about performance. A luxurious cobalt ss to put it another way

The regal sounds like it has a diesel in it at times. Heard a few like that doing PDI's on them. Nice interior thou.
