Cobalt SS Supercharged: $21,995--205hp & 200lb/ft
ION Redline: $21,450--205ph & 200lb/ft
SRT-4 (stock): $21,295--230hp & 250lb/ft

So, the Dodge is the cheapest and most powerful. The Acura out powers the Cobalt, but falls way short on torque. The WRX is a little more expensive, but it's got AWD standard. The ION is redundant.
