Cobalt....you could go to india and get one of those cars that doesnt meet our safety standards.

Well it depends on what you want....

RWD - Car, Truck, Suv - Older Camaro, Older Silverado
FWD - Car, Compact Suv - Eclipse, Escape/Vue
AWD - Car, Truck, Suv - Eagle Talon, Silverado 4X4, Older Blazer

Do you want a GM car? Cobalt seems popular.

4th gen F-body? Those might run you a little more than $10k though.

Never mind, I just ran a search on Autotrader in my city and found 7 F-bodys for under $10k.
