Absolutely right. It’s already happening.

How about a slightly different take on evading trouble?

This was a tough call for me. I’ve owned six station wagons, and almost bought one of these in ‘86 when I wrecked my Caprice Estate Wagon. That particular (brown!) Malibu had a v8 and a manual transmission, so I was 100% ready to sign the papers as soon as I saw the shifter in the transmission tunnel.

Besides the exhaust, the Ralliart package includes: different/lower springs, shocks, quicker and steering rack with less damping, strut tower brace, 5 lug wheels and 205/50/16 tires, and a larger front sway bar. I dd one of these, and it’s been very reliable.

The ralliart trim level was indeed available as a wagon in the USA. I have using one of these as a dd since 2009. Currently at 125,000 miles, it’s been more reliable than the 95 Accord wagon that it replaced. It certainly fits the fun category of “slow car fast.” Small correction, the base wagon and the ralliart trim…
