Why? Seriously. Are you scared of a RWD car with torque? Are you scared that spending less money on a domestic will net you more HP and better times than it would if you dumped the same amount in a car like you're looking at.

Depends on what you want the car for.
Colbalts seem to be priced a little to high for what you get. Mazdaspeeds surprised the hell out of me at VIR and put laps on a modded SRT-4 and gave me quite a challenge even in stock form, excpet for brake pads. So they handle very well stock but you cant really do too much to the motor since it's not built for turbo.
So, if straight line is more your thing then SRT-4 of course would be the way to go, and they probably would even out handle a Cobalt stock for stock.
