Yes, I know it's a trim option. It is still the origin of the name at GM. A big block and a 4 speed makes damn near anything better in terms of enjoyment.

Truthfully, this new Malibu is definetly a big step forward. The past iterations were pretty nondescript. It was basically a GM Taurus. I know, my wife drives an '02 V6 LS. I'd rate it a 6 or 7 out of 10. This new one (at least the higher trim options) look pretty decent.
