MY 08 Malibu

Hello All, here is a pic of my new ride. A 2LT model, Black Granite Metallic, with Ebony interior. It is a vast improvement over my 04 Malibu Maxx that it replaces. The ride and handling is most enjoyable. I love this car, lol.
Oh, and her name is Betty.

Re: MY 08 Malibu

Welcome. People that owned a Maxx seem to like them. I hope you like the 08 even better.

Re: MY 08 Malibu

Thank you for the warm welcome. I've had this new one since Dec 15, and now have 2200 kms on her. No problems so far, not even a squeek or rattle. Very solid ride and love the handling.

Re: MY 08 Malibu

Congratulations! They are beautiful cars. They definately should be on anyone's consideration list when looking for a mid-size sedan. Good luck keeping that pretty black car clean in the winter.
