Personally I wouldn't go with either. They're both fugly. And I'm not a Chevy hater. I'm a GM mechanic, actually. I'd look for a first gen Camaro. Everything after those look like poo. Or if you can find a Chevelle or something. Even if it's a POS they're not hard to work on.

I don't like either one, but if I had to choose it would defintely be the Camaro, IMO. The Malibu may be powerful, but it looks like a P.O.S.

First of all.. Cominus... think about what you just said... who doesnt want more power here? lol. The car would be a cruiser and a ricer bruiser... Im not much of a street racer and i dont go to the track.. yet... but the ability to run and run fast is a must. I just want to eat ricers in my area and look badass doing it.
