That's almost exactly what my mother has (2005, same color, same frontend, but steel wheels). My tC is the same color, so it's fun to park next to her and contrast/compare the two cars.

I'm currently trying to decide between a Cobalt ss/sc or a Tc. Both are great cars. I think a lot of people who think the car is a "polished Cavalier" ought to drive the car. It's an all-new from the ground up re-design of the old GM J-body. Quiet steel, new stiff Delta platform, Eaton supercharger, 18" wheels with Pirelli's, Quaife lsd, Recaro seats- it's the real deal. Even the interior is almost VW-like. Not to mention low 14 second 1/4 mile stock and 3 factory backed GMPP stage kits taking the car up to 260HP.

Tc has the Toyota resale and reliability, and superior aftermarket support. Definitely the more attractive of the two. And of course the price advantage which is the main reason I'm seriously considering it.

One of the more mature posts on here. I passed on the Cobalt for my tC primarily due to cost and resale. If I would have stayed GM, I would have gotten employee discount as well as having friends that work at the dealer to handle all maint and such. Just couldn't justify the extra $$ for the SS and I really don't like the base model Cobalt. I think the decision comes down to #1, cost, then #2, Domestic vs. Import, and #3, which car do you really like to drive? The answers to each of those questions varies with each individual.
