Reviewing: 2004 Used Chevrolet Impala Base

Ok, this car was a replacement for a decaying but dependable 1992 Buick Roadmaster.  Right out of the gate this car performed and appeared well - that is until it was involved in an accident in December 2007.

Despite this (and the six month down time it took to repair it) the car continued to outperform and present itself as simple and decent.

The car does well on long-haul trips and is/has proven itself for normal day driving.  Never has it left me on the side of the road - ever!

The interior is simple and can fit up to six people (4 adults, 1 child and 1 infant - anything beyond that you're testing it's limits).  The radio is incredible and although the casette is trying at times, it still can do the job.

This car is up to my expectations as a car that can perform, look good, and not cost me a truckload to run.

Perhaps my only gripe beside the tape player is the A/C controls - seems too much variable fan speed for a simple car as opposed to 5 speeds (incredibly low, low, normal, higher than that, full blast).

The color meanwhile can be changed, but you get what you pay for.

But be advised, LOW Clearance!

Pros — Performance, Simple Outlay, Appearance
Cons — Standard Tape player for a modern car?, AC Controls TOO variable.

This Car just floats down the road, soaking up bumps, while having smooth, subtle, and readily available acceleration.  Only downside I have found so far is the cost of fuel, although it does get ~30mpg on the highway.

Pros — Great ride, handling, acceleration
Cons — in town driving fuel costs

Has good space for moving my show stuff.  It gets 28
mpg on average.  It can move fairly quick, it does
cruise and ride very well.
  i would recommend to a friend.

Pros — Looks pretty cool
Cons — Doesn't get off the line like I wold like it to.

A clean American ride. Can't beat the price or the cost of parts for service. It's always easy to find spare parts in a salvage yard as well. Make sure-- if you buy one, you go all the way with features/aesthetics/options/alloy. Everything else should fall into place if you know where to look.

It's a great car! It gets good gas mileage and we haven't had any problems with it. I wouldn't mind having an SS Impala though! In fact, we're trying to sell it. Let me know if you're interested!! He he he!

Transmission - Began slipping at 90,000 miles, now it shifts hard after 5 minutes of driving every trip.

Engine - Has some internal coolant leak, and I'm pretty sure the alternator is going bad. I'm pretty sure an oil leak has developed as well.

Brakes - Will be having the 4th set of rotors put on the car in the next month.

Pros — Well, it looks like a police car, so people get out of your way on the expressway. It also looks "nice."
Cons — Everything but the appearance.

A defenate classic, with regal class and debonare elagence. This mid sized sedan is packed with leather, lots of power, and a feel of the road like no other. The supercharged v6 explodes 320 ponys to the low profile tires, that grab the road with independent quadralink suspension. This car has corvette inspired paint, body pannels, and tail lights. most owners would agree why chevy spent so much time on the tail lights, because thats all most people see.

Pros — lots of power, not many of them on the road.
Cons — only comes in black, no imbrodiry on seats, just on doors.
