The G6 is a piece of trash. Drove one right when it came out - it represented a little improvement on the old GM. Thrashy, tired warmed over 3100 in the form of the 3500, numb steering, interior a small notch over an Avenger - which isn't saying much, same old 4 speeds. Overall, a lackluster all marketing no substance representation of old GM cut to the bone by beancounters that believe people will buy the hype and overlook the substance.
The Malibu is Epsilon done right. Two completely different cars. One where the details were considered, refined. The other where the details were hidden and excuses made for. Not to mention one handles like a sloppy, coarse excuse for a car and the other rivals a TL in the ride / handling balance.
