2003 Malibu
Features it has that I like include rear window defrost, AC (live in south Louisiana), power windows, power mirrors, & power locks. Forgot the height adjust for all four seatbelts. Short people know about this.

Features I wish it had include spilt fold rear seats, seat height adjustment, and rear seat headrest.

What I really like--in no particular order:

Satellite Radio (I haven't listened to conventional radio broadcasts since I bought the car!)

Automatic Climate Control (Set it and forget it!)

Navigation system integrated with the car's Bluetooth feature and the audio system. (If I am listening to the Nav system or to the audio system--or both--while driving, the sound of the Nav and audio systems automatically mutes itself when I make or receive a phone call. When I hang up on that phone call, the Nav and audio systems return to normal.)

Heated Leather Seats (No staining, plus complete comfort on cold winter mornings)

Heated windshield wipers (Much less necessity to get out of the car during a snowstorm in order to knock ice off of the wipers)

Backup Camera (The placement of the camera is such that I can see children, garden tools, animals, and whatever else might be directly in back of the car--including directly downward with a partial view of the rear bumper)

Power Lumbar Support (Really great on long trips)


What I could do without:

Sunroof (Opened maybe 5 times in the 1 1/2 years that I have owned the vehicle.

Hill-Holder (Not really necessary with an automatic trans)

Electronic Parking Brake (How hard is it to pull a lever with a conventional parking brake?)

"Ultraview" was a giveaway for a GM product.

LED then was a hint for a Cadillac (Aside from the Regal's DRL's).

Then when you mentioned power liftgate...it would have to be either an Escalade Platinum or SRX...but then I remembered that the A/V system in the 'Slade is antiquated. So SRX it is.

Enjoy your new car!
