2006 Chevrolet Malibu LS review from North America
"A great mid size car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with the car, it only has 700 miles on it. I will keep you posted with every oil change.
General comments?
The car is wonderful. I am 6'3 and there is plenty of room to spare, unlike my wife's Neon.
The car handles very well, and the 2.2 engine performs well. I'm getting 29 miles to the gallon at the moment, I'm sure it will get even better as the car is broken in.
The interior of the car is set up very user friendly.
We truly love this car so far, though I have only had it a week. It gets a little bit better gas mileage than my wife's 2005 Neon. The car is well equipped for being a base model.
