There's a nice tune (through Trifecta, BNR and others) for the 2.0T that will bring it to life.

I looked at the Trifecta tune, but wasn't impressed with the gains. I'm sure some dyno tuners can get much more out of it, but then you're still stuck with putting all that power to just the front wheels. Hopefully torque steer is not as bad as it used to be, but I'm still skeptical.

Congrats!
I think the new styling of the Malibu and Cruz are very big improvements over the prior generations!

I really like that color choice you picked out . I think this year of Malibu's are the best yet. Really slick design, although I do have to agree with the trunk space seeming a little small but looking big on the outside .
