New Malibu
We tried to work a good deal on a 16 SS sedan, but there were no good incentives for a lease. I ended up really liking the new Malibu. We picked up a fully loaded 2LZ turbo in Butte Red. Great car and pretty fun to drive. It has all the features of our 2SS and a ton more. Really freaky how it will sort of drive itself with cruise control on and with park assist.
Yes, that's my Camaro in the background.

Funny, I wouldn't have noticed the camaro if you hadn't pointed it out.

I like the color, though not the name of it. I liked the last year's model, though I think I am in the minority.

Looks a lot better than the older model. I have to say though the bow tie placement in the front looks out of place...IDK maybe it's me.

I like it. My daughter has a 2006 Malibu and she really likes the new one. Cultivating a brand loyalist?

These things look great in person, always catch myself doing a double take when one drives by.

The new Malibus look very nice. I test-drove a Premier 2.0T, but it didn't feel like it had 250 hp (maybe it just needed more break-in time?) and I found the trunk to be too narrow. What did they do with all that wasted trunk space, anyway?
