Having worked as a luxury auto tech for 21 years (Mercedes, BMW, Volvo, Jaguar, etc.)qualifies me to say the 2013 Malibu is a lot of car for the price.
As far as reviews go, don't beleive everything you read. Go out and drive (or better yet purchase) one of these vehicles and form your own opinion based on your own driving experience.

I don't think this a bad car, build wise.
I just think the styling,the dimensions, or lack there of, plus a hefty curb weight could have been addressed for this generation of Malibu? I drove a 2009 malibu LT with the 3.6 right after I drove a 2009 CTS AWD and shoot, I was more impressed with the malibu! I was so impressed that I went to this dealers HONDA dealership down the road and test drove a new 09' Accord with the same options, motor, etc...for comparison. And when I came back I told the salesman I thought the Malibu drove nicer, had more power and felt better built! He didn't know what to say? I meant every word, I loved that Malibu
Now I haven't driven the new malibu, but last time when I was at the dealership they had one on the floor, so I looked at it....thought to my self this interior is very well put together, nice materials, shit better than the last! But where is the V6, or the styling
just not for me!
I also don't beleive everything I read, if I did I probably would have a rustang and not my Camaro
