2003 Chevrolet Impala Preview summaryImage

Drivers love the 2003 Impala, from the powerful engines to the little touches such as the signal indicating low windshield wiper fluid.

The engines remained the same as they had since the car's return in 2000: a 3.4-liter, 180-horsepower V6 in the standard car, and a 3.8-liter, 200-horsepower V6 in the LS. The standard engine continued to get excellent mileage, at 21 city/32 highway, and the LS followed closely behind at 19/29. These numbers allowed the 2003 Impala to continue to lead its class for fuel economy.

The car is extremely spacious, and-especially for a reasonably priced car-fairly luxurious. Available leather seats and satellite radio can add an even more luxurious feel to the ride. Gauges are clear and easy-to-read. All in all, an excellent buy.

Ive had my 2003 Impala since new. Excellent car. Drivetrain is as smooth as my new car. Uses no oil. Gets 34 mpg on the highway (w/AC off). 160,000 miles.Oct 28, 2024

Worse car I ever had in regards to quality and durability. My first American car. I am not a chevy fan. Very room comfortably sits 5 people and great trunk space. Cloth interior, panoramic sunroof. No luxury features. V6 engine. Handled pretty well for local and distance traveling. Stylish with rear spoiler and sport rear lighting. Affordable car at time of purchase. I would compare to a Chevy Malibu. Good value not a high mileage car. Dec 09, 2021

I bought this car from a private party with 90k on it. This car has all the bells and whistles you could ask for in a sedan, leather, power everything, great factory sound system, sunroof, and plenty of room for 5 adults. It has a lot of power and handles great, however, I'm beginning to have issues with the transmission, which I'm finding out from research that they are notorious for. At 149k miles, its beginning to slip at take off. I've maintained this car just as I have every vehicle I've ever owned, with great care and attention. I've always been a fan of Chevy, however, the verdict is still out for me on this particular model when it comes to overall mechanical maintenance overtime. One recommendation is, if you have to buy certain mechanical parts for this particular model, I would suggest good after market parts, I wouldn't put any GM replacement parts on it, they just don't seem to stand up and you'll wind up replacing again, sooner rather than later.Sep 17, 2014
