However, I keep my hands on the wheel. Maybe it's because I have long fingers that it doesn't bother me, but I have no issues with this. Then again, I've used foot-activated turn signal switches, steering stalk activated switches, and hand signals. I think people now-a-days have it far to easy and don't truly know how to drive anymore. Plus, it takes me a bit longer to make a lane change than 3 flashes. I don't know if you have ever driven in Philly or on the Boulevarde, but 3 flashes is not long enough. You'd have to tap it multiple times, even at 60mph. |

If the 2011 Malibu is the same platform, I'd be interested to know what the suspension changes are that help it ride better. Not that I think the Aura rides poorly, but there is still a bit of "Flintiness" to it. I think struts will wear out quickly on it.
If I had to take a stab in the dark I would tend to think that the Malibu probably has some slightly softer bushings or lower spring rates.

These days, with keyless entry security systems, there really is no need for a keyed ignition anymore.

Errr push button. Everything is moving away from hard wired or mechanical functions. There have been times I'm sure that we all have had to crank the starter for a little bit while pumping the throttle. And this day it is probably easier to find and duplicate an RF signal then it is to pick a key hole.
