Bring back the impala dump the malibu
by Bensing on 7/7/2026 7:47:43 PM
Chevy malibus are decent cars but not very roomy. I own one, but I was looking everywhere for an impala, but you all stopped building those and I had one of those also, and I loved it nice and gloomy and comfortable. Do away with the malibu and bring back the impala. - 5.0
Dependable and fun daily driver
by Da Bu on 5/11/2026 10:56:14 AM
Bought our 2017 Malibu Premier new and have been impressed ever since. Lots of power from the 2.0 Turbo along with confidence inspiring handling makes it enjoyable to drive, especially for a family sedan. Reliability wise we continue to be amazed by our bu, so far 1 set of tires, routine oil & filter changes, replacing the tire pressure sensors, and a battery replacement, that is it. - 5.0
Great Car For Value and Money
by Phillip on 4/19/2026 12:55:40 PM
In 2023, I bought my first brand-new car, which is the 1LT version. It has so far, been a wonderful car with the features I need/want for a reasonable price! I named it Betty (after Betty White, since the color is white). I hope to keep this car for years to come (with proper care and maintenance, of course).
