| Price of the Chevrolet Malibu: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Got a really good lease deal. Didn't want to purchase a car at the time. |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 252-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I bought my malibu used with 9000 miles. I got a very good price so I am happy with my decision. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 252-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Paid $23,049 for 2LT with sunroof |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Value packed - easily beats the competition on price, and GM incentives plus warranty make it a no brainer. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
The Malibu is a very quiet and refined car. It has decent handling and offers a lot of features for its price! The dealer incentives, combined with many positive reviews make it in my opinion a car that provides good value for the money. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
We found this car used with 15,000 miles for about $5,000 less than any other used Malibu available. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 145-horsepower 2.2L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I purchased new base model and have paid 2500 less than sticker price (60 month). |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 217-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I bought it used, depreciation is very high so it was very inexpensive considering the features and performance offered. It cost only 50% of list when only 23 months old. Since I intend to keep it for at least three year depreciation is not a concern. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 200-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Great vehicle to have! |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 200-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
The price was over 10K less than Camry or Accord and actually had better safety and features. |
