2003 Chevrolet Malibu

Okay, this is the first car I have owned. Yes I still have it, and its paid off. I guess I love this car partly because it is my first car, but also because it is a reliable car. Now it doesn't have all the bells and whistles. In fact it doesn't have power windows, but it does have a CD player?!? I would have definitely traded the CD player for power windows. That is my biggest gripe. The only other thing that really bothers me a lot about this car is that the front skirt, I guess I have heard it called that, is very low to the ground and if I am going too fast, or over a deep dip or driveway I will scrape. That is annoying. However the good things about this car are the fuel efficiency. Really good on gas. It is super reliable, I have taken this car to the shop only once and it was just loose belts. Yes I am a girl. I think the car is nice looking. Mine is silver, light gray interior. One problem though I used to work neara car rental place and they shared the parking lot with us. When I first got my car I would see like 5 of my cars in the parking lot. Another good thing about this car is the trunk space, huge and plenty of room. I took my daughter camping to the beach in this car, we fit our tent and camping supplies in the trunk along with our clothes everything. there is also adequate leg room. I am 5'10" and the front seat is very comfortable. My daughter is pretty tall also and she has plenty of room in the back seat. Plenty of room for three adults in back seat. I would totally recommend buying this car for Moms great mileage and trunk space. Plenty of room for carseats. the four door model is great for carseats. Very fuel efficient and reliable. I would also recommend this car for anyone on a budget again fuel efficiency and price. Easy to maintain, regular oil changes. that is about it. I also personally think this car has a bit of pep to it. I like to drive fast, and this little grocery go getter can keep up well with most other cars. I have driven this car all over southern california and never had a problem on the road. This probably would not be a good car for handicapped people or the elderly though. It is very low to the ground for my Father who is handicapped he has a hard time getting in and out of it. Other than that this is a great car. I would recommend this car for anyone to buy! Very good buy for the money. If you are looking for flash this is not the car for you. I rated this car three stars but would actually give it three and a half stars.
