SFAS: 2008 Chevrolet Malibu & Hybrid 'Bu

The Malibu is a wonderful looking car inside and out. More handsome than either the Accord or Camry and with a superior interior, too. You can count cutlines and worry about the material five inches under the seat all you'd like, but the look and functionality is far superior to the doofy Toyota and lousy Honda interfaces. Plus, nothing looks more ridiculous than the Accord's gearshift indicator. Like a playtoy.

Malibu hybrids were at both shows, but the Tampa show had an interesting variation...

Your normal gray-on-gray interior we’ve all seen for the Miami Malibu. But the Tampa Malibu features a much more appealing Cocoa/Cashmere cloth combination. Good to see there will be variety.

I think I saw that interior combination for the Hybrid on the Chevrolet website a few weeks ago. Glad they are offering colours other than gray.
