2008 Chevrolet Impala consumer reviews

This car is virtually perfect for me. I can fit 2 carseats and a person in the back seat. Plenty of leg room up front for comfortable long drives. The engine.... what can I say, it purrs. I am so beyond happy with my purchase. The stereo is awesome and no distortion when I turn it up!!

I have owned this car for nearly 3 years now. I bought it with low 63k miles on it, one owner and clean title with no reported accidents. I was in the market for something more reliable, spacious and better on fuel than my high mileage 2001 Silverado I had at the time. I found a car that fit budget, had decent reliability reviews and was super clean. In the 3 years I've owned and 25 thousand miles I've put on the car, it has been problem after problem. First was both mufflers went bad. Then oil leak. I had to have the oil pan and valve cover gaskets replaced. Was not a cheap or easy job. Had to drop sub frame to get oil pan off. Then take a crossover coolant pipe off to get rear valve cover off which involved taking many other things off. After all that, the thing still looses oil. I've had to replace sway bar links in front. Alternator twice. Water pump is bad on it and now I'm pretty sure at only 88k miles my transmission is going out. I'm sure I'm forgetting things that aren't normal maintenance (tires, brakes, battery, fluids, etc). It has more rattles inside it than a baby store does. I usually baby this car and rarely open it up. I've had better luck in the past with beating the xxxx out of vehicles and having no problems. Will never buy another Impala.

This car is very reliable and has been well kept, it’s averaging about 8k miles a year. Clean interior and exterior, car is only averaging about 8k miles a year.

This car is very comfortable when driving it. It is stable, reliable and runs very smoothly. I love it. I will recommend to everyone who is looking for a good car to drive.

I love it!! I’ve owned impalas for years. They are reliable and safe. My reason for buying this one is I wanted an SS. Already own an LTZ, I just wanted more.

A fun car to drive. Safe, reliable and drives smooth. Good gas mileage and still roomy enough to be a family car. At this price you can't buy a better car

I bought this car for my dad. He absolutely loves it. Rides like a dream he says, lol. Great car with lots of room and runs without a problem.

So I got my 08 impala 2LT with an ltz upgrade package as a handme down from my grandfather. He orginallay paid around $42k to $50k for it (I don't know the exact pricing and can't find a reciept or anything of such) but with this car nearing 100,000 miles it still drives like its new. It has an outstanding acceleration and a max speed (w/limiter) of 113mph. the interior looks most luxorious and personally the leather seating was the best choice for this car, even with the ten years of wear and tear the leather has yet to tear or become noticably worn down. If you take car of this car like its a 65 classic car, she will last forever. Only problem ive run across is the a/c acuator (of the 3 in the car) began to rattle and I had to replace it. which I recommend taking it to a dealership or auto shop because an Impala is extremely complex car thats best left to the professional it was a pain to DIY it. Overall great car and I recommend it to any and everybody who wants a luxury, sporty, cheap, and reliable car

This car met all of my needs it rode well it was a good drive low road noise. I just really enjoyed that car. It's a great full size car.

It's good family car, with comfortable driving. Both Short or long trips, I would like to see the newest model and make comparison, more technology is the way to go now a days.
