Those downsized 1978-1983 Malibus were attractive and made for a good automotive value. I would have liked to have had the 4-door sedan. Practical and sensible for its day.
@Lumotaku Agreed, These were Great cars!! Great looking and Very Dependable! We had one and knew so many people that owned these malibu's as well...Great cars..Someone I Know had an 81 Sedan...Drove it 18 years and 350,000 KMS..No Trouble at all except Basic maintenance!
Its kind of weir my father went from a 1971 Chevy Monte Carlo that he brought brand new to buying a 1978 Chevy Malibu that was a demo he said he hated it the day he brought it and was so glad the day he got rid of it when we got rid of it, it was 1984 and we almost came home in a 1980 Cadillac Coupe Deville but instead brought a 1981 Pontiac Grand Prix Brougham

I really liked this era of the Chevy Malibu's, they look like an updated version of the 1966-67 Malibu's when looking at the sides.
