Worth buying?
Is a 2007 cobalt really that bad? I have a
chance to buy one; priced at 1,500, but the
seller is willing to drop it to $850 for me. I
know; it sounds like he’s trying to make a bit
of money while unloading a piece of garbage
- all I can say is that my current car has just
been totalled, I need a replacement, and I
have virtually no money; it’s this or nothing.
And of course I’d have a mechanic check it
over before agreeing to a sale. Given that you
say ‘07 and earlier are not the best things to
buy under normal circumstances, what do
you think of it for my situation? Would you be
more likely to say, “Not the greatest car, but
at that price go for it”, or “Run, you fool, run!
RUUUUUUNNN!”
