Author's Product Rating:  Recommended: No 
Pros: Low price, roomy
Cons: Electrical difficulties, feels cheap
I've had the misfortune to rent these suckers occasionally and I have to cringe every time I hear the "car that America could build" slogan.
It's surprisingly roomy for a compact car and the engine has plenty of power. The ride is...

Pros: LOTS of power (in the V6), great handling, low road noise, low engine noise, huge trunk
Cons: cramped interior, strange radio
It was a few days over one year ago when I first thrust myself upon Epinions, and looking back, my very first review was on a piece of garbage 1997 Ford Taurus that I had been driving. It was a company-owned car, so I didn’t have any choices in what I...

Pros: High quality Style and organization, Efficient, Safe, Roomy, Fun!
Cons: High Price mechanic work, not so reliable on electronics, Does not reach max speed.
The Bottom Line: Make the decision based on your needs - family, Economic, safe. But be thorough on inspection.
2000 Chevrolet Malibu don't allow those words to hypnotize you. All around a great look inside and out. I must give a thumbs up to the engineers for the quality of cleanliness and easy use of finding things under the hood. Don't Take This ...

Author's Product Rating:  Recommended: Yes
Pros: Ride. Acceleration. Great A/C.
Cons: Reliability. Looks. Too many things beeping.
The Bottom Line: Fun to drive, but probably not adequately reliable to buy.
I considered myself unlucky when I picked up a silver 2000 Chevy Malibu from Enterprise. In fact, I begged for a Corolla in its place. See, our rental Maxima had a flat. They replaced it with a 2000 Sebring Convertible which had an insane electrical...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Price, Standard Equip. OK looking
Cons: Seems rough overall, It's not a Civic or Corolla
The Chevrolet Malibu has a job to do, and it does it fairly well. It's job is to get you to your job, and maybe the occasional road trip. If you want to buy an American car, but say an Impala is too big and a Cavalier is too small, then you are in...

Pros: V6, Power everything!, Alloy wheels
Cons: Manifold gasket replaced @ 70,000
The Bottom Line: Ive had it for over a year now, trouble free....AMERICAN MADE TOP QUALITY CAR!
The best decision I have ever made was the purchase of my 2000 Chevy Malibu SE. I love it, the looks, the price, and the power! The SE model is well worth the few extra dollars, it comes standard with: 4 wheel Anti-lock brakes.....Dual airbags ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Roomy interior, powerful engine, comfortable, good gas mileage, takes a beating
Cons: Issues with ABS
The Bottom Line: Gives a quiet, comfortable ride with plenty of options and won't hurt the billfold on gas for a V-6. Were it not for the ABS issue, I'd give 5 stars.
I needed room, bad
I'm 6'5. I was driving a Geo Metro. No, it was not for the circus. But it felt like I'd been hired by P.T. Barnum himself. I could drive small cars no longer.
So, if everything is relative, then the...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: offers much value for the money
Cons: none
The Malibu sedan should seriously worry Japanese automakers because it shows General Motors can offer a reasonably priced, competitive rival in the big number midsize auto market. GM wasn't afraid to do things very efficiently with the front drive...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Good handling and response
Cons: Poor tuner in radio
The Chevy Malibu is the next car on my list that GM has requested I test drive, so test drive I did. I have mixed feelings about the vehicle because of several areas. One thing you must remember is that you cannot compare this to the higher priced...

Author's Product Rating:  Recommended: Yes
Pros: Great handling, lots of room, safety features, good design for work and play
Cons: Tense on high-speed drives, lower city mpg than stickered, passenger comfort
The Bottom Line: After having this car for over a year now, I still love it as much as the day I drove it off the lot. I will lease another Malibu soon.
If you are looking for a speedy sportscar, do not read this review. If you are looking for a great towing package, do not read this review. However, if you are looking for a great value for your dollar in a great family sedan, please read on.

Pros: comfortable, smooth, rugged
Cons: UGLY AS SIN
I dont know about these new Chevy Malibus that look all pretty. I have a 1982 Chevy Malibu Classic and it is rugged. I feel like I own the road when I drive. I named him Jerome because I feel like a big black man when I cruise down the road. There is...

This car is probably the best automobile I have ever owned! My wife and I are expecting our first child in June, and we needed to get rid of the old "deathtrap", and focus on something safe and reliable. Our first thought was Chevrolet....

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: No
Pros: I could use my GM card to buy this car
Cons: I would never want this car
The Malibu of yesteryear was a descendant of the Chevelle. The cars had a little flash, a lotta go, and would get the groceries home too. The Malibu of Y2K doesn't quite fill those shoes, except for the grocery part. I had the opportunity to spend a...

Pros: Comfortable interior, good acceleration (V6), contemporary styling, value priced yet loaded with standard features
Cons: No traction control, fog light switch
My wife and I own a Saphire blue 2000 Malibu LS, this car burns bright. The Malibu is a good thing. I feel, this is one of the best family cars produced today.
What chevrolet has built is a tight, solid, roomy, fun-to-drive midsized

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Colors, Stereo, vehicle size
Cons: Some road noise on highway.
When I went to rent a car for my 5 hour road trip I was looking forward to a Grand Am Gt, since that is the car I had prior road experience in. They didn't have one. All they had in mid-size was the Malibu. Frustrated but in a hurry, I took it. Let me...
