The Malibu is a great daily considering I take both my kids to daycare every day. Can't do that in my Mustang until the youngest is in a forward facing car seat. It appears people are just jealous of my great dad-mobile.

Why did you go Malibu instead of Impala?

I just wanted something that got good gas mileage and was big enough for a family of 4. The Malibu fit that better, for less money, than the Impala.

The new Impalas are really nice cars though. My Grandpa has one in the light blue color to match his '65 SS.

Brogina claims have gotten worse since 6th gen came out. Now that 5th gens are getting in the right hands...

Phil doesn't have ewp,pulley,tune,ds,brakes,wheels etc so nout even close to full sausage OJ. Rest of the nonsense posted not even worth a retort. Get your twins on Poppa. I am waiting.
I did go 11s with tune/catback. Want me to copy/paste a full list including catch can? I have also stated dragpack etc before too but got tired of typing in the full list. Get over it dude.

I also don't have ds, brakes, lightwight wheels(Racestars light? LOL!) I GUARANTEE you Phils car with everything you listed above won't go 11.0s like other FBO full weight S550s are doing. Throw some E85 in there too.. won't make enough of a difference.

You can get a pretty well optioned Malibu for the $27,300msrp the Impala starts at.

I too love the looks of the new Impalas. The old Impalas depreciated so darn fast though so they may be a damn good daily option for many.

Wow......well phil don't have full exhaust. Another lie from you.

Imagine if phil had e85 and 150lb out of his car. You discount your mods and only want to claim his.

You tired of be busted up yet? It's funny you claim that as only online **** talk but yet got so worked up over close runs and online **** talk. Fact is that fat azz fifgen hurt your feelings just by running well and not even to it's potential.

Don't seem to be the facts here.

Dad bought up a whole bunch of 2014 Impala Classics as fleet vehicles when GM was more or less giving them away.

The '65 is incredible. He's the original owner and the car is 100% original 396 car. One day it will be mine, but I'd be okay if that day never comes.

Hard to drive a car Like that. Too scary to park it anywhere. Better just let him keep it forver.

2 deaths, that would be very hard for me, would have to happen before it came to me. Hence why I'd be okay if it never happens.

Hopefully gramps did some good estate planning. Morbid to talk about - but have been to too many funerals lately where the person unfortunately lost too early didn't plan well and now their family is left to suffer and pick up the pieces
