Today, December 18, 2006, General Motors offers a first look at the exterior of the next generation Chevrolet Malibu. The 2008 Malibu will be unveiled at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January. The new Malibu features a dual-port grille that represents the "new face of Chevrolet."
