G6- Sept. 13,422/88,587 (63% of those buyers are conquest from other companies)
Sonata- 10,353/85,620
Sure the G6 has the addition of a coupe model, but that is no different than comparing Camry sales with Malibu, since Toyota adds Sorola and Camry sales together.
I do however feel that the Impala is a better overall car than the Sonata.

i dont know why GM cant do it, the sonata is what the malibu should be, quality materials, good fuel efficiency, decent build quality, quiet, all the things that the camry was hyundai made it better, while GM introduced the malibu with hard plastics and refinement problems. hyundai aimed to beat the camry and accord, and im sure the malibu wasnt designed to do that, its not as quiet, refined or built as well. with its cars GM needs to match the imports as well offer some other stuff on top of that to offset the perception that toyotas are better.
