This Year's Model Updates:

Revised front styling ties Malibu to Impala, and the 1999's brushed-aluminum wheels have been redesigned. The 3.1-liter V6 engine is standard this year, and has been improved to offer more horsepower while meeting low emission vehicle (LEV) standards. A spoiler and a gold package are available.

Pros:
  • Comfortable and roomy interior, speedy acceleration with improved V6, contemporary styling, ultra-low price yet loaded with features.
Cons:
  • No traction control, cosmetic changes for the sake of change, refinement is exchanged for low car payments.

  • A solid car - 2000 Chevrolet Malibu
    By -

    I purchased my 2000 Malibu in 2003 with 60k miles. The owner was a senior citizen who had made lots of road trips and meticulously kept up with maintenance and had all receipts to prove it. Ive now had my Malibu for 9 years and love it. Ive had to do most of the expected routine maintenance - brakes, rotors, tires, filters. Theres been a few pieces of non routine maintenance but overall this has been a great vehicle for me. Im now at 162k and expect to take it to 200k+. When Im done, I hope I can find a similar car - malibu from same era with meticulous records and low miles and likely non aggressive driving previous owner.

  • Love my Malibu! - 2000 Chevrolet Malibu

    I bought my car after renting one from Hertz because I loved the way it handled. Im 6 tall and cant get into just any vehicle comfortable. With the seat pushed all the way back I have plenty of room and my head doesnt scrape the ceiling. I have over 170000 miles on my Malibu now and its still going strong. Have an ongoing problem with the A/C compressor cutting off and weve replaced the water pump. The oil is changed regularly and I am careful where I buy gas (also had a problem with bad gasoline). Overall, Id recommend this car to anyone whos interested in good gas mileage and a fun ride.

  • I will only buy Chevy now - 2000 Chevrolet Malibu
    By -

    I just wanted to let anyone out there thinking of buying one of these cars to do so. My daughter wrecked mine into a pole head on, the airbags went off, and she didnt have a scratch on her, she walked away unhurt.. This car was built sound and tough and my daughter is living proof. I want another just like it.

  • Me & My "Bu" - 2000 Chevrolet Malibu
    By -

    No one is allowed to drive but myself. I wash it every other week. It was my dream to have one. In the late 60s Dad bought a yellow one a standard & thats when i learned to drive a standard. It had spoke wheels a pretty yellow. My Bu is special to me. Love that style. It will be a classic Ill never trade it. Thanks for bringing them back!

  • Malibu LS - 2000 Chevrolet Malibu
    By -

    I love the taupe leather seats in my Malibu LS Gold Edition , I also love the power sunroof, seats, fog lights and cd and tape decks. This car gets excellent gas mileage and is VERY powerful with plenty of standard features. The SFI 3.1 liter V6 handles smooth and is excellent for traveling and fun in the sun. I would recommend this beautiful car to any one who is interested in many luxury and reliability options.

  • Great Car - 2000 Chevrolet Malibu
    By -

    Had a bad experience buying the car but loved it every since. We had problems with the rotors and pads in the beginning but that was under warranty. Then we had the fan control go out on us. Just recently we had the EGR valve go and have had a problem where the AC when it is on MAX it will all of the sudden shut down to the regular AC. But other than those we have been very happy with the car.

    I have had my Chevy Malibu for 4 years and have had no problems. It is safe and has a lot of power. I had a choice between a ford taurus and a Chevy Malibu and I am happy with my choice, The MALIBU!
