Definetely an Epsilon, most likely a Malibu refresh.

From what I read in C&G, it's GMX 386, the 08? Malibu. Looks pretty good. I've been impressed with a lot of GM's recent interior offerings

Malibu is the first thing I thought. The layout looks like an Epsilon

Very similar to the Saturn Aura's interior, so an Epsilon car is probably accurate.

Not bad. Not so sure I like that big blank space on the passenger side though.

I love the dashboard but from what I can see the doors and steering wheel look out of place. Still, looks like a BIG step up from the current Malibu if that is, in fact, what it is...

Ok, is this the EPII Malibu or is it mearly a refresh of current EPI model? At least now they know how to make the center stack flow smooth to the center console (my biggest pet peve with my car)

I agree. The relatively new 3 spoke wheel looks old and out of place to me in that context.

I notice you're in Olathe. Do you work out at Fairfax, or did you get to go to a clinic at the plant?
