Potential for what?

Using the same logic, the V-12 will 'always' have more 'potential' than the V-8 or the V-10, so why stop at just eight?

Comfortable, well-equipped efficient, long-distance travel is not the intended mission of the Chevy Cobalt, just as it isn't for...

A late-model used C6 or Cayman can be had in the $40K range.

I could live with that.

It isn't really price that keeps those cars out of my garage.

Sorry pal. I'm not into FWD cars at all and I would even refuse a Cobalt at the rental counter if I had any other choice at all.

Now, make the little shidtbox a RWD and I'd give it a try.

To me, as long as there is adequate room inside, I would always feel that the outside dimensions of a sportscar are better the smaller they can be. And, I'm quite willing to pay the extra nickels...

I think GM should have offered the Brembo brake hardware and maybe other SS grade hardware with the V6 too, even if it made the car cost the same (or even more) than the V-8 model. I'd still pay...
