Author's Product Rating:  Recommended: Yes 
Pros: Poor resale makes for some great buys, Acceleration, Transmission, Fuel Economy
Cons: Interior Design, Cheap-o materials, Rear visibility, Some of the exterior colors.
The Bottom Line: Since these cars are going for very cheap, they make a great value and are recommended 100%.
During the 1990s the Chevrolet Impala came with one of the most powerful V8 engines available in the large sedan market. Unfortunately for the muscle car enthusiast, and fortunately for the affordable family car enthusiast, the Impala nameplate...

Pros: The Price and Size Fit My Family
Cons: My thoughts on this car are degrading rapidly
The Bottom Line: I love my Impala, but I absolutely hate the fact that it's been in the shop so much and now I've had to spend $800 on tires and brakes!
Note: Please note the troubles I have had with this car at the end of the article. I was happy when I found this car, but I am rapidly losing my confidence in my purchase.
Over the past few months, I've been searching for the most...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: No
Pros: Value, Size
Cons: All the reasons I stay away from GM
The Bottom Line: If it were my money, and it had to be domestic, I'd consider the Grand Prix in this price range.
AVIS=GM=dull and boring.
At least, that was what I thought when I received the keys to the Impala. My opinion of GM cars would be altered somewhat.
Test Period
I rented the Impala for 3 weeks in late '00. Drove it to work in hot...

Pros: moderately priced, safe, curb appeal, responsive
Cons: the front undercarriage scoop bottoms on steep inclines
My Dodge Dynasty had 193k on the odometer. The wheezes, clunks, and droppings were heralding the end. I figured that I had best get looking.
Domestic and import--probably a dozen dealers in three days. Some interesting models--but none that...

This is not my father's Impala! This is like no Impala before. My wife & I went to a Chevy dealer to test drive a Malibu. Well if we wanted to buy a Malibu we should have never also test driven an Impala. What a car! It does not look that big from...

Pros: Sturdy, safe, a ton of power, heated seats!, handles well in snow and ice.
Cons: None yet, really!
The Bottom Line: Love this car! Zero service visits in two full years, tons of room, lots of pep.
First let me tell you that this is my, and my husbands, 5th new vehicle purchase so the "it's new so therefore it is great" syndrome has well worn off. As with all of our other new vehicle purchases we expected to be back to the dealer with some minor...

If you are looking for a reasonably priced, comfortable 4-door vehicle that seats up to 5 persons, this is the car for you. If you occasionally need to have 6 persons in the vehicle, don't read further!
