I like it, but only the top-of-the-line that goes for around 27K. I'm not a base model car guy

I want upgrade my car a bit (interior), a 2009 Malibu LTZ, where can I do this?
Can I take it to the actual GM dealer where I bought it or do I have to take it somewhere else? My father bought me a 2009 Chevy Malibu for my 16th birthday. Its a really sharp looking car.

Being a 09 the dealer is the only place you can do any thing. They have defferent packages for interiors that can be installed. The aftermarket is not aloud to touch it for 2 years I think.

Why should I also consider these? X

The Fusion and the Altima are more fun to drive than the Malibu, but neither of them is as roomy and comfortable inside.

Backseat room is another big differentiator; the Malibu and Camry both have very spacious rear seats, as does the Accord, but the Altima's is especially tight.

And the Malibu's interior puts Toyota to shame; its attractive interior is well styled and has better-looking and better-feeling materials than much of the class.

The Fusion has by far the boldest, most aggressive styling, while the Accord arguably looks the most elegant.

The Sonata is more comfort-oriented, but its interior isn't quite up to the standards of the Malibu or Accord, and it's not as quiet inside.
