Cobalt SS 2.4L V4

  • Manual transmission
  • 153,000 miles

The car's engine blew up and would have costed $3,100 to replace the motor with labor included. The car was barely worth $4,000 at this point in time so it would not have been economical to repair it. Instead, this car is now being torn apart and individual parts are being sold off of it.
