#4849 of 4908 Re: Any tips buying used 2004-06 Malibu? [csandste] by yury Apr 23, 2007 (6:59 am)
Replying to: csandste (Apr 11, 2007 7:04 pm) the comments about the vaguenes of the electrical steering continue to baffle me. i've been driving my 05 LS for over a month now and I have no objections whatsoever to the way it feels. yes, i was oversteering a little at first, not any more, got adjusted. highway ride is very nice, the car goes in the straigth line and feels pretty comfy. I come from a number of 4 cyl compacts and none of them (except maybe my mom's Sentra that has has a very stiff steering) compare to the bu on the highway. normally those cars would be a bit nervious at the nose at highway speeds, so it'd add fatigue on long trips.   I also find that this not-so-small car is sirprisingly easy to park. normally with a new car for some time i would not be as presize pulling into a marked spot.   On a general note, I can't quite understand how one can get a conclusive feel from one or 2 test drives. Cars differ quite a lot in a number of ways and i find that the initial feel can be deceptive bacause you're only drawn to those things that are very different from your old car. But we get used to things real quick. In 2 weeks the overall impression of the can be quite different. so...to me a good test would last a month...alas, it is not realistic

I own an 06 malibu with about 30000 miles on it and not a problem. The electric steering takes some getting used to but the car is great.

#4852 of 4908 2007 vs 2008 Malibu LS??? bigger is not always better by want_a_yaris Jun 30, 2007 (5:06 pm)
gf is looking for a new car and comes from a GM family. The base Malibu seems to fit the bill in terms of price, reliability, and economy.   I know the Malibu is about to redesign and get the 2.4l as the base engine. I don't know if that platform will provide the same economy. I'm also sure the price will increase on the new model (as opposed to an end of the year deal we can make on the 07 LS).   Should we wait for it, or go with the current generation Malibu?

Replying to: want_a_yaris (Jun 30, 2007 5:06 pm) The next gen appears to be alot different and more refined but obviously there wont be used ones around and you'll pay more and lose with the high 1st year depreciation hit. The current gen is plentiful as used cars and new and with the redesigned Malibu out in late 07 there will be some great bargains available.   Nobody can say if the new Malibu is going to be better or worse but by all indications it is better, but higher cost to buy. I usually go the lower cost route and the current gen Malibu is a very decent vehicle. Replies to this message: yury (Jul 06, 2007 12:09 pm)

Replying to: shadow5599 (Jul 06, 2007 12:00 pm) well, one can always get a used 07 Saturn Aura next year i haven't checked the specs, but isn't it supposed to be basically the same vehicle?
