http://www.roadandtrack.com/article.asp?section_id=31&article_id=7103Great article. While I give thumbs up (atta boy, Chevy!) to my beloved Cobalt dominating the competition and winning this performance comparison - I'm most interested in the results of the 09 WRX 265. They tested 0-60 at 5.1 seconds - only .1 slower than the STI! It also won the autocross.
I imagine had they included other subjective points other than this just being a performance comparison, the WRX265 would have won overall. This was the pat on the back I needed before buying!
Good article, overall, though.
Just noticed that 1/4mile trap time for the Cobalt was 104MPH ---- that's fairly impressive. WRX had the quickest quarter at 13.8.
Can you believe that sport compacts are 13second cars now, right out of the box?
