Here in Ontario, there's a $3500 extended term finance cash on the XFE model (5 spd with a/c costing $17,800 incl freight). So, that puts you down to $14,300 (just add fees and taxes).
You can option up to the Cobalt LT and get a $5000 extended finance term incentive on it. Base LT with manual transmission (let's compare apples to apples here) prices out at $19,520 including freight. Do the math = $14,520. So you'd have to ask yourself if pwr windows, locks, remote keyless entry, arm rest, power mirrors, standard air conditioning, etc. are worth $220. PLUS, the best part, you can have automatic transmission *with* a/c on this model.
If you can't drive a stick on the XFE and have to opt for the auto tranny, you can't get a/c.
That's like a really bad April Fools joke.
