TWIN FALLS, Idaho, March 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Chevrolet Cadillac of Twin Falls, in conjunction with Con Paulos Chevrolet, Kim Hansen Chevrolet and Sutton and Sons, is proud to announce that the winner of the 2007 Chevy Cobalt Giveaway is one of Twin Falls' own and a man who really wanted to win this car.

KMTV pulled the winning ticket on March 14 bearing the name of Robert Martin as the lucky winner of the stunning 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt from Chevrolet Cadillac.

The four local Chevrolet dealers all contributed to the cost of the vehicle and began accepting entry forms in early February at each of the participating stores. Over 2,000 entries were received. Martin had submitted his entry at the Chevrolet Cadillac dealership at 1654 Blue Lakes Blvd N., Twin Falls.

Martin said he was thrilled to have won the vehicle; however, he won't be keeping it for long. Instead he will gift the car to his grandson, Gary Douglas whom he had promised a vehicle to long ago. Until now he had been unable to fulfill his promise. Dedicated and determined, Martin visited Chevrolet Cadillac of Twin Falls every day of the contest to submit entry forms (contest rules allowed for one entry per day). He became a regular at the store making friends with the employees and always departing with a hopeful smile. The day finally came and KMVT announced the winner was none other than --- you guessed it - Robert Martin.

Chevrolet Cadillac of Twin Falls will present the keys to Martin at 10 a.m. at the dealership. And, even though most contest guidelines require the winner to be responsible for taxes, title and fees; Chevrolet Cadillac of Twin Falls has taken care of all of these remaining costs.

"Our entire organization was thrilled to hear Mr. Martin's name announced as the winner of the 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt," said Corey Kracke, general manager of Chevrolet Cadillac of Twin Falls. "He became a fixture around hear and wanted to win so badly - not for himself but so that he could fulfill a promise to his grandson. It was a great conclusion to a fun contest."
