Overview & Reviews
The Malibu gets little in the way of upgrades for 2003. There are two new colors to choose from -- Summit White and Medium Gray Metallic -- and a new seat fabric on LS models. ABS brakes are now optional on base models, but remain standard on the LS.
- Comfortable and roomy interior, low price, ample feature content.
- Poor expected resale value, not as refined as top-selling Japanese family sedans.

Happy with our Malibu - 2003 Chevrolet Malibu
By fadedave - April 26 - 2:00 amPlain Jane? Yes. Built like a truck? Yes. Meets the needs of a family of four? Yes. The Malibu was our last throw-in" when we made our short list of mid size cars to test drive and after test driving the imports we found this Chevy to more than meet what we wanted in price, build and performance.

Total Practicality - 2003 Chevrolet Malibu
By Howardvv - April 12 - 2:00 amIts not a BMWr, but it does everything well and has been totally trouble- free. The Malibu has apparently earned the intial quality award that it has advertised.

One nice car. - 2003 Chevrolet Malibu
By Gary Mills - May 17 - 2:00 amThis is the first brand new car I have ever owned and so far I am completly satisfied with the car. My only complaint is when the air conditioner/defroster is running the gas milage on this car goes down the crapper. I have taken it back to the dealer but they have not be able to find anything wrong. Except for that, the gas mileage is good for a car running with a six cyl. Handles very well and has a smooth and quiet ride.

Good Car - 2003 Chevrolet Malibu
By K358 - August 28 - 2:00 amMine is actually a 1997, the first year. It currently has 103,450 miles and is doing fine. I enjoy the car, but the engine only has 155 hp because they didnt upgrad the engine until 2000. Overall, the car hasnt been bad and Ive not had the brake problems some have had. My gas mileage isnt what I would prefer, but I do drive a little fast. My mom has a 1995 Olds Cutlass 2 dr with the 3.1 V6 with 162,000 on the engine, so I am hoping for the same with the Malibu. It has been a good car and I would recommend it.
