2008 Chevrolet Malibu LS review from North America
"Superb"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It is brand new.
General comments?
I'm amazed the GM has finally built the BEST car in its segment. The interior is nicer than all of its Japanese competitors. It is quiet, competent, and way more luxurious than you would think a Chevy could be. It's road manners are superb. I bought the LS for less than $20k, and it is nicer than most $45k luxury cars. It has knockout good looks and styling. I could have wasted money on a Honda, Toyota, or Nissan, which all deserve past credit for building superior machines, but no more. GM has finally built a world class car.
