Jul 24, 2008 - Fine, if you think that, I need some "DEFECT" or "HAZARD" information!

Jul 24, 2008 - Malibus burst into flames when parked or when driving!

GMminivans9968 Says:

Jul 24, 2008 - Ooops, you forgot something. Proof. That's what you forgot.

chryslerminivans1111 Says:

Jul 24, 2008 - You never show proof.Just admit it! The all new Chevy Malibu, built to make the FIRE last.

GMminivans9968 Says:

Jul 24, 2008 - Prove it.

Jul 25, 2008 - Well that makes the viper exclusive making it rare. And when the viper does go out of production, it will be a future classic. And I don't wish Chrysler was as rich as GM or else they would use the same cheap components found in a van in one of their sports cars, like the corvette.

topgear215 Says:

Jul 25, 2008 - There are no recalls for the Journey. Every car from the 1990s and before were unsafe no matter how much the automaker did to make it safe. With the exception of the Mercedes and BMW and some other automakers.

GMminivans9968 Says:

Jul 25, 2008 - Um, yes there are! 6,692 got recalled! Actually the 1995-2000 Chevy Lumina received all "Good" raitngs. The Taurus is safe, too.

firedemon101 Says:

Jul 25, 2008 - not that it is any of my business the malibu did get recalled twice

firedemon101 Says:

Jul 25, 2008 - not that it is any of my business but the malibu was recalled on two occasions

Didn't get the comment.

GMminivans9968 Says:

Jul 25, 2008 - But not fire recalls, firedemon101! Am I wrong?

GMminivans9968 Says:

Jul 25, 2008 - The Vette sells way more.

chryslerminivans1111 Says:

Jul 25, 2008 - I can believe that. I see them on fire all the time now.

topgear215 Says:

Jul 25, 2008 - I know that. I'm just saying that the Viper is more exclusive making it rarer and more valuable than the Corvette.

GMminivans9968 Says:

Jul 25, 2008 - Yeah, believe the lie!

GMminivans9968 Says:

Jul 25, 2008 - It's hardly rarer than an Enzo. That's not cool.

topgear215 Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - I didn't say that it was rarer than the Enzo. I said it was rarer than the Corvette.

GMminivans9968 Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Yeah, and that's bad.

alexkvaskov Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Lol, firedemon's day was made when yet another GM vs Chrysler argument was started on his vid

topgear215 Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Why is it bad? That means it will be worth more than the Corvette once it goes out of production.

GMminivans9968 Says:

Jul 27, 2008 - Yup! lol

GMminivans9968 Says:

Jul 27, 2008 - But it's no better. Look at the facts:Viper SRT10 ACR:0-60 in 3.4177 mph600 hpCorvette ZR1:0-60 in 3.2205 mph638 hp

USFCARTWRIGHT Says:

Jul 28, 2008 - honda odyssey did better in this test (gm minivans is going to say something..)

smoothwagga8 Says:

Aug 4, 2008 - MUCH BETTER THAN CHEVY UPLANDER.. no comparison in the side impact test either. Thats why GM had to stop production, They cannot make minivans.
