Some vehicles are born to be performance legends. Great designs, chassis, and potential are all carefully balanced on the performance edge, and history is made. Some vehicles take a longer route, and only see their names in lights once their companies have endowed them with a specific set of new skills. Occasionally, however, a performance model leaves you wondering how it was ever created in the first place. The Chevrolet Malibu Maxx SS is firmly in the last category.
