Nothing....well...maybe the missing V6, at least the 4 cyl is better on the enviornment.
Advice to buyer:
Test drive the V6 and the 4 cylinder
Detailed review:
The 2008 Malibu.....I LOVED IT! I test drove the V6 first, it was an LTZ model. I then took the LT1 model for a spin, it's got a 4 cylinder engine, WOW!!!!!!!! The 4 banger is just as peppy as the V6. The fuel economy is better and it costs alot less. The bells and whistles and comfortable interior make you forget about the V6 engine missing! XM satellite radio....OnStar....hands free phone....remote car starter.....navigation......and a beautifully designed interior. Who could ask for more? HOT CAR!!!! The body style is WAYYYYYYYY better than before! I didn't like anything about the Malibu prior to it's body style change.
