Let me reiterate this....She wont let me buy "her" the Camaro, AKA...buy me the Camaro lol.gif lol.gif lol.gif

What do you guys recommend? She wants something small...like a Cobalt...I want her to go for a Malibu, as its way more comfy, and not that much bigger.

So do you think I should go for an SS Cobalt or get her an LT/LTZ Malibu

If it were me, I would enjoy the Cobalt for a little while, but I would probably get sick of it in a hurry...The Malibu seems to be very comfortable and looks awesome...and with the deals that GM has on, I can probably get a V6 LTZ for less than a Cobalt SS.

What would you guys get.

Let me say though....I don't have to drive it...I have the truck and the Zuke once its finished. If it were the Camaro I would drive it...but anything else I don't really care.

Try to find a left over g8???? I like the impala but i would have a tough time buying a car i thought might be redesigned soon. The malibu is nice. How opposed to buying a foreign car are you? I also really like the newest front end on that Ford fusion. What a shap grille! THe other you may want to consider is the Tear-ass SHO

Car-2009 Pontiac G8 GT-OR should we say Holden VE Commodore since Pontiac is dead...Stock engine, 20% Tint, GXP diffuser, Clear corners, VG shark fin antenna. Up Next- New exhaust tips
