Bottomline The price is right for the 2009 Chevrolet Cobalt, yet most of its competitors offer a better overall value. The 2009 Subaru Impreza WRX is a niche model that won't appeal to everyone; it's extremely entertaining, remarkably comfortable, and very safe, but might disappoint those who value refinement and frugality for the daily grind.
