Good on gas
I had the vehicle from 72,000 miles to 155,000 and had it for 6 years. It was always reliable and good on gas. I had a couple of things go wrong mostly from wear and tear but all minor and expected for mileage and year of vehicle. Overall it looked decent, was good on gas, and was pretty reliable.- Purchased a Used car

One of my best purchases.
I loved it. The ride was smooth. It was easy to maintain. I loved the extra features. The color was great because if it didn't get wash regularly, the dirt didn't show up as much.- Purchased a Used car

A solid choice
Good car doesn't have a ton of room, but about what you would expect for a midsize. The 4 cylinder has weak acceleration and leaves a lot to be desired. The transmission shifts okay, but youll still wish you had an extra gear or two. I really like the layout and abient blue/ green lighting that helps you find the door handles- Purchased a Used car

My First Car & Loving It!
The car is great, never had a problem with it, gives me good power and great gas millage.The only thing its missing is an extra power outlet in the front b/c it comes with one on the lower dash and one in the storage/arm rest--but other than that, the car is wonderful (5/5) .- Purchased a Used car

Great value for the money
I have to say that i never expected myself to buy an american car in 100 years but I just purchased an 08 malibu classic (used w/ 11k miles) and love it. Great gas milage and good interior space at a low price point lead me to this pick. Thanks cars.com for the research and tools on your site. Mike- Purchased a Used car
