Replying to: beach15 (Oct 02, 2008 2:49 am) I bought my 08 2LT Malibu at Lewes Auto Mall! Small world--they take care of all four of my GM cars. Super dealership to work with!   Can you tell me about your wheels? They look different from the 2LT wheels that I have on mine and that appear to be identical to what is shown on Chevy website for 2009. Is it because you got the 6cyl?

Replying to: bryan (Oct 02, 2008 7:40 am) I saw that exact color combination with those wheels (they remind me of Audi A4 wheels) and thought it was a great combination. I am not usually a white fan but it works on the Malibu.   Those wheels are specific for the 2LT with the 6 cylinder.

Replying to: guss (Oct 02, 2008 10:19 am) Thanks guss for the info on the wheels; that's because you can only get 18" tires with the 6cyl? Or could you still do the 17" wheels with the 6cyl? I think I prefer the wheels I have on my '08 to what beach15 got on his white one.   I'm seriously contemplating an '09 2LT to replace a soon to be out of warranty Olds Aurora. Yes, I really like my '08 2LT Malibu that much!   I special ordered by '08 with every option except sunroof. I also spec'd the 4cyl, and could only get the 4-speed tranny (ordered in March 08; delivery May 08).   I'm thinking of doing either the red jewel tintcoat or one of the new colors--I forget the name but it's like a green ice or something like that. The exterior color I finally choose (won't be Imperial blue--got that one already) has to allow for the cocoa/cashmere interior--I really like that combo.   Thoughts anyone?

Replying to: beach15 (Oct 01, 2008 3:51 pm) There is simply no comparison between the 3.6L and the 3.5L in your G6. The smoothness and power range of the 3.6L is unreal and it has a beautiful snarl when you take off (though you have to open the windo to really hear it).   I see the power pedals are gone as are the side markers for 09. You probably have the blue tooth though which is nice. Power pedals are useless in my view.   Hopefully you don't have to wait too long now!
#1078 of 1285 18" wheels by vanman1 Oct 02, 2008 (12:17 pm)
The 18" wheel you see on beach15's car are the same as mine and they only come on the 2LT with performance package. You can not get them with the 2.4L 2LT and vice versa.   Personally, I think the 18" weels look amazing and are the best available on the Malibu. They are the same design as the Impala SS and really give the car a strong presence.
