There's NO comparison between these cars.
The Cobalt SS's only advantage is acceleration, and it's pretty decent around the twisties especially for a fwd car (especially if properly nodded).
The Twins are rwd, have a way better manual transmission, a much better weight distribution, torsen LSD, much better grip, much better styling inside and out, much better fit/finish, sound better, better gauges, better reliability (GM reliability, with few exceptions, is so awful that it's hard to describe adequately)...
...I could go on, but there's no comparison.
I will say one thing about the Twins that is likely to make some people upset, right or wrong (it's my honest opinion, though); the automatic should not have been made given that they seemingly, for whatever reason, couldn't get the rpm peak, HP, or acceleration times (which are weak for the manual transmission, and embarrassing for the automatic) of the manual.
But aside from that, there's just no comparison.
