I'm very pleased with my new Malibu LT. It has so much more get up & go compared to my other two Malibus I have owned. The new style has people turning their heads to check it out as I drive down the street. Being a gadget freak, for the money, I have no complaints on the interior. GM did a good job on this automobile.

A great american sedan with European handling. Take a way the badges on this car and you may mistake it for an import. the fit and finish is near flawless. THe engine is silky smooth and the car drives like a dream. This has to be the best sedan overall chevrolet ever made.

Drove most every mid-sized car before I came around to the Chevy dealer. I travel alot and need comfort when I am on the road. I was shocked at the new Malibu and the total redesign of it. And all for about 20k. Pick up is excellent, as well as comfort and mileage. I average around 28 mpg and the trunk space is amazing.

I purchased a 2004 Malibu in March of 08. It had 3400 miles on it at the time. I love my car it havent given me any trouble yet. Hopefuly it won't any time soon. Since I got it I have only had to do the normal things like oil and brakes. Oh I can't get my gas cap to stay on. The only thing I dont like about these cars is there front end is ugly. They look like bugs. The car has plenty of power and great handeling once you get use to the torque steering. I think it was wort every penny I paid for it

What a pleasant surprise this was! I thought, OH it's a malibu BIG deal... I was shocked and amazed by its quality, solid structure, and comfort. More personality than the Accord or Camry. It reminds you of a european sedan with it's outward visibility and interior layout. Very nice.

A Lot of Car for the Money

A truly "American" car. Plenty of power from the V6 and a quiet, roomy interior. This car is built for the freeway rather than hairpin curves. Just set the cruise control at any sane or relatively insane speed and those interstate miles quickly melt away. The electric power steering offers very little feedback and the suspension is somewhat soft, although I always felt in control of the vehicle.

The redisigned Malabus are great, as long as you get the bigger V-6 engine. The extra features are great too, like remote starter on a cold day and the way the seat fold down.

Like they say everyone should drive it. My wife had a Camry owner approach her to find out what it was all about. He was looking for a new car. Fast powerful easy to drive these are a few of the things that make me enjoy it.
