Never driven a Colbalt, while I know they share the same chassis as the HHR, do they drive and feel about the same as the HHR???

I was reading over on the Cobalt forums about the testing over in Germany and the car was incredibly fast. I don't have time to look up the link, but you guys should check it out. It was outdoing some really hot cars. It's just not an HHR though

the cobalt seats have deeper bolsters and lumbar, so they are not exact to ours. the Cobalt SS that Heinricy drove broke the track record for sport compacts in germany

Cobalts are a good bit lighter and the center of gravity is much lower because they are so much shorter, so they would have to drive and handle quite a bit differently. Faster, quicker, but they aren't gonna haul your 4 friends AND the dog, and luggage, ect.

agreed, coming from an SS/SC the hhr handles differently and also rides and drives differently, the ss s/c was darty at times and also no where near as smooth. and yes, it had trouble fitting anything in the back seat
