Replying to: pao (Feb 15, 2007 6:06 am) I do not think the Malibu should be compared to the Camry or the Accord! --- The Impala would be a better comparison. As far as the problems with the V6 2007 Camry, I own a XLE / 07 / V6 Camry with 46,000 miles, and I DO NOT have any of the problems that you see posted on these boards! This vehicle is a "drive by wire vehicle" and many of the owners are not comfortable with that system. ----- Since I am in sales, I do an extensive amount of highway driving. On long trips I easily get 34 mpg at 60 to 65 mph. If I lower the speed to 45 / 50 mph I have seen 38 mpg. (Not bad for a full-size vehicle with a V6! Show me an American vehicle that can give those numbers! Best regards! ------ Dwayne

Replying to: djm2 (May 08, 2009 1:56 am) You do not hear people talk about GM's engines, other than if its a sports car. But, you do not hear people say the V6 is smooth and refined, or you can get by with a 4cyl because it is so smooth and efficient. Why do you see most people opt to get the V6 in a GM car? The 4cyl cannot cut it. My 06 Accord 4cyl engine would blow the G6 4cyl I have now off the road!!! Not to mentions its crappy transmission. I would love to have my Honda back, but the Camry looks nice too. As long as its suspension isn't soft. |

Replying to: bvdj84 (May 08, 2009 5:05 am) I would NEVER purchase a 4 cylinder American vehicle! ------- American car manufacturers cannot build a quality four cylinder engine!---- I was comparing the V6 Impala, to the V6 Camry, to the V6 Honda Accord! Best regards to all! ----- Dwayne

Replying to: imidazol97 (May 09, 2009 6:20 am) No where near any 4cyl GM car. Night and day difference. Honestly, I think there is something wrong with my 4cyl!! I think the transmission might be going out, its slips and surges all the time into gear. Its all done a little too rough periodically. I am trying to get the dealer to look at it. It feels like I am driving an older car with over 100k miles on it. I only have 15,000 miles on it. I drive gently with my car too.  Driving calmy too seems to show more signs of transmission problems. There is this one gear that has seems to shift rough, even when new, I just though it needed broken in. ? I want to try to talk to someone in the business to see what my options are right now. I have been in the car a year (lease)... If it wasn't for the engine being so BLAH! I would actually like my 08 G6. Obviously I'll keep it til the end if I need to, but why not seek all options and avenues too right? |
