Default Caliber $ and comparison...

Has any pricing information been released on the Caliber yet? Also how far off in design is it from the Malibu Maxx?

He didn't say it wasn't a GM product. The Malibu Maxx and Caliber are the same style car.

CHASE saw what I was getting at. I know that the Caliber is not a GM. I am wondering how similar the Caliber is going to be to the MAlibu. aside of the taillights, rear decklid and near similarly carved rear bumper...will the insde be close the the Chevy?

I don't think it looks like a Malibu. Its more like a Pontiac Vibe and Toyota Matrix, which are the same car.

The Malibu should be compared to the "New 2006 Chevy Impala". GM just screwed up another car design by going too conservative and copying one of its own existing car (Malibu). haha

He isn't talking about the Malibu. He is talking about the Malibu Maxx, which is the hatchback version of the Malibu. Which I think is more compitition than the Vibe or Matrix.

If I ever get into a bar fight Chase better be there cause so far he has had my back in this entire thred, THANKS! The Matrix and Vive are the same car. I believe it is the same as the Eagle Talon and Mitusbhishi Eclipe were. The MAXX is Identicle to the Caliber. I like it I just tik it looks like a Malibu MAXX with a body kit. I would concider buying it though.

Here are the two, side by side. They are identical, they have more in common than the Matrix or Vibe would with the Caliber.

Ive seen both the Malibu and the caliber in person, and i must say in person they seem very different. the maxx seems longer, and the caliber seems to be like a foot higher then the maxx.
