Clue me in if I'm wrong, but the Cobalt SS is as good as it gets as far as the Cobalt line. The SS package is supposed to be top of the Chevy line.

Unless they have a Cobalt GSS model equipped with miniguns and flamethrowers that I haven't heard about.

...

Fuel economy is important in this vehicle selection for the rare occasions that it is used to drive to Canada.

...

The features and the trim of the Civic Si are better on paper, but I haven't sat in either so I don't know how it'll feel.

Engines are close, albeit a different route. Any thoughts on the supercharger versus what I assume is just a beefy 4-banger?

The 2006 Cobalt SS (supercharged) gets around 205 hp.

The 2006 Civic SI gets around 197 hp.
