I'm the odd one out here. Thie new Malibu reminds me of another car. As soon as I get in front of my pc I will post a pic.

Very nice. I see a bit of the last gen Monte Carlo in the rear. Looks mean! Now I can definitely see an SS version of this. Good going Chevy!

The front reminds me more of the Volt than anything else...

Pretty nice overall. Looks 20 years newer than the outgoing model.

I like the hint of Camaro in the front. As others mentioned, that character line over the rear fender is way overdone. The overall design would flow much better without it.

The other negative is the trunk opening line. Awkwardly runs over the side. BMW's and others have done it, and it never worked aesthetically. The overall trunk shape is a little too "bangled" as well. I thought this trend was going away?

Look at the picture, I can see a small resemblance.

Interior looks cheap.

Outside looks like something that would be made by another car manufacturer. Doesn't look like a Chevy. Nice though.

How does that interior look cheap? I agree that it isnt up to Lexus standards, but if this thing costs what an ES350 does, I will be suprised.

Even you have to admit its worlds above what it was last gen.

Now we'll have to recognize a new pair of headlights at night looking for cops. *sigh*

Oh good! The new styling will make driving a rental/loaner car slightly less painful.

I don't know, but the steering wheel looks pretty cheap.

Definite improvement, but there are so many other cars in this segment that look way better.

I don't know what the price will be, but since the Malibu is gunning for the Camry/Sonata/Accord segment, I assume this will go against the Avalon/Azera segment.

I've seen the new Malibu on the road and IMO, it looks stunning. Having seen the pics of the new Avalon/Azera, this thing seemingly doesn't have a chance. However, the old Impala didn't have a shot either, but it still sold, either to fleets, die hard built-in-the-USA uninformed, or those shopping by price alone. This Impala won't make you an immediate laughing stock. And I mentioned before, I can see this becoming a much more successful SS variant in the future.

Still FWD? "does face-palm"

there was no doubt it would be FWD. the greatest crime IMO is the omission of AWD which its arch rival Taurus offers

So is a certain Flagship Luxury car. FWD is all the rage!
