We have a 2006 Cobalt SS Supercharged in the family, I am very familiar with them, I had an HHR, not a SS but would like to find a nice one. The Regal GS is a lot nicer of a daily ride than the Cobalt or the HHR. We have had 2 Regal GS's, one a 2012 manual 6 speed and a 2016 automatic 6 speed. When the 2012 GS came out in 2012, 2 GM Milford Proving Ground Engineers ran one in one of those Pony Express races out west and it and the top speed, limited to 155 mph. It was a production car but with just the required safety equipment for the class. Possibly a roll bar and helmets, I think. A lot of people were impressed that a "Buick" could do that. I like a lot of the performance cars GM has made but my favorite will always be Pontiac. I was mad when they stopped and I told a lot of people there about it, I am an employee at the GM Warren Tech Center. I make comments about it any chance I get.
