Default My new daily driver

This is my other car I am driving. We got it from my grandfather. It is a 2002 chevy Malibu with about 64000 miles on it. I still have the Monte Carlo but it is still in the shop so I am driving this a lot more.
Here is a few pictures of it:

Thanks Mikes, and John that was my plan, the monte already has 114,000 and I drive a lot. So I really do want to keep the monte carlo for a long time.

The Chevy Malibu, at least with that year, it was Chevy's N-Body (Grand Am equivalent). If that has a v6 under the hood, I know it will serve you well for many miles
I have zero experience with the 4 cylinders (so can't say anything good or bad).

The malibu should prove to be very dependable. My daughter has had her 01 for about 4 years and it's been so low maintenance it's not funny. Did you get a crazy good price on it? They seem to still command over $2,500 .

Yeah, it has the 3.1 in it which was what my lumina had and I know that is a dependable engine. The car was originally my grandfather's car and he recently passed away, so my family got the car since nobody else wanted it which I have no clue why but hey their lost.
