2003 Chevrolet Malibu LS review from North America
"The number one mid-size sedan!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The front brakes are going at only 15,000 miles.
General comments?
Besides the front brakes I love this car.
It has a lot of "Get up and go." The 170 horsepower engine with the 4-speed transmission really moves the suprisingly light weight body.
It has a great roomy interior. Simple, but stylish is what I like to call it. It's very original and comfortable. The trunk space is also amazing.
It's a great buy; power windows, locks, mirrors and trunk with cruise, keyless entry and a V-6 all for $19,500 brand new!
No wonder it out sells the Camry and the Accord year after year.
