Why should I also consider these?

The 2009 Pontiac G5 is a near-twin of the Chevrolet Cobalt coupe, but lacks the Chevy's optional SS trim with its turbocharged four-cylinder.

The Honda Civic is the most sophisticated in this class.

Its four-cylinder engines are flexible and rev freely, the manual transmission is a pleasure to shift, and its interior quality is top notch.

The Ford Focus coupe isn’t pretty but has plenty of features, including the new SYNC entertainment controller.

The Scion tC is reasonably handsome, with a rev-happy four-cylinder engine and a much more visually satisfying interior, but it's also quite cramped.

 
2009 Chevrolet Cobalt
The price is right for the 2009 Chevrolet Cobalt, yet most of its competitors offer a better overall value.
 
2009 Scion tC
The 2009 Scion tC is more sophisticated and feature-rich than its price tag would otherwise indicate.
 
2008 Ford Focus
The 2008 Ford Focus isn’t all new, but it is an improvement, and a solid choice if you’re looking for a roomy car that handles well with a base price that starts around $15,000.
