I can almost promise you that my cobalt will out handle my camaro and its FWD. Cobalt is a great handling car recording over .9G's in factory form. dont diss the cobalt unless youve drivin one. oh also braking is by far better as well. oh yeah steering on my cobalt is presise, i had to modify the camaro in order to get a good feel of the car. i would be scared changing lanes in my camaro with stock suspension as it felt like it would float away. cobalt has never done that.
I'll return the favor. I just happened to own an HHR SS with a Stage II GM Turbo Kit installed. OEM is was good. With our Pedders xa coilovers installed it was off the charts good.



Compare the performance to this video that shows the OEM Camaro and a Pedderised Camaro.



The HHR SS / Cobalt SS are terrific cars. The Cobalt makes a terrific race car because it has a robust monocoque and is light. The Camaro has an even more robust monocoque, but is not as light. Most drivers are faster around a road course in FWD than RWD. Most racers would prefer to run RWD.

Watch the videos, as different as they are, and make your own choice about all three vehicles.
