KnockinthaStreetzof608 Posted September 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 shit whats so bad about getttin better gas mileage from having a smaller engine? plus its a newer body styled car(referring to the 08') i wouldnt mind lol. like you said, you're not gonna be racing in it. just cruising from point A to point B looking rather stylish! yea excatly my point im not really a big fan of the older models of impalas or malibus look pretty simple to me,cheap tho i give them that and chevy makes hell of a car but im not really into egnine thing so i had no idea all im doin is bumpin [thinkin bout it maybe 1 ss xxx15" fire in the cabin ofcourse] just theh thoughs of a 4 vs the standered v6 Quote CAR -2005 Ford Mustang (Legand Lime) H/U -Pioneer avh 3200dvd Amps 2 AQ 3500d.1s strapped 1ohm daily .25burps 1Sundown Audio 100.4 1 Sundown Audio 125.2 Subs 4 AQ HDC'4s 12's Mids and highs 4 Sundown Neo Pro 8s 2 AQ Super Tweeters Electronical Mechman 270 unit 1 D3400 2 D3100's WALLED!

G_skillz81 Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 I rented a new bodystyle malibu a few days ago in Cancun ( they didn't have a suburban or the hummer available that particular day, so decided to try the malibu out)....honestly don't know what the engine was - it was an auto, had dual exhaust and some 18" rims - looked pretty nice outside imo... for what it's worth felt like 180hp or so.... the interior is tacky and cheap even with the leather, big turn off if I ever wished to buy one.... the tranny downshifts pretty fast and the engine has some guts from 2 to 4k not something I would consider for performance though.... get it with a base engine, base enterior, throw 20's or 22's on it and put a system in - cruze, don't race get a v8 fullsize pickup, cheap, reliable, easy to work on and can burn some rubber in the right hands.....

G_skillz81 Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 thats funny. you are right on the money with it. lol I have both the 09 malibu iwth the four cylinder and a fullsize chevy truck I know, right? with all the stuff that's easily available in the US, the malibu is just a nice 'get-your-ass-across-town-be-reliable-get-good-milage' kinda ride.... mid-size sedan and front-wheel drive are just not made for performance. I bet the interior was made to look good in brochure photos LOL - people get a boner over the looks, walk into a dealership, go for a testdrive and before you know it, it's too late to run from the textured soft-look panels made by FisherPrice.... Still, the outside is solid - nicely proportioned and doesn't really have any angles where it looks bad Man, the older chevy trucks are where it's at too, wish I could get an older C\K, Silverado or Tahoe here in Russia that isn't all rusted out Quote 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 - Deep Orange Build log - Blowthrought with 4 18's http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/122600-4-18s-in-a-dodge-ram-team-sundown-russia/ Sundown Audio SAX125.2 - Sundown PA 10" Shok-wiring & RCA's XS Power D6500 Mechman 320A Sundown Audio Russia http://sundownaudio....dex.php?/index http://www.drive2.ru...ram/ram/skillz/ - more about my truck http://www.youtube.com/user/Gskillz81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
