You really cannot go wrong with either. GM pared an excellent ecotec turbo (direct injection) engine into a well rounded chassis. Subaru's new gen WRX also sports a more refined ride and interior but loses some fans with a more conservative exterior and slightly softer ride. The Mazdaspeed 3 does bear mention here. The Cobalt is a two door (kind of a PITA with kids) whereas the WRX is a 4dr. The Colbalt's interior does have some hard plastics but looks durable, the new Subaru's interior is a step up from last generation but not class leading.
