Repairs through the years were extensive

Except for the constant repairs and getting stuck 3 times, I loved the car. After all it was the SS model with the best engine I ever had in a car. 303 hp , 8 cylinder that dropped to a 4 cylinder on the road.

Powerful and so comfortable

This car is too powerful for a front wheel drive. I loved this car and it got me out of situations that, had I had a slow car, I would have been hit. Its actually l like being in a recliner the seats are so nice. Its luxury at a low price. I hope they bring back the SS

One of the most reliable cars I've owned.

It's a good car, it gets the job done and it has plenty of room for my wife and I. The drive is above average but the heated seats are my favorite feature it makes the winter so much more tolerable.

Very reliable car

This car is easy on gas and works perfect for my teenager. It's still stylish and has enough room for her to lug her sports stuff around. The only thing I found I don't like (and this is not a major issue) is that you have to start the car to see the brake lights. I had one go out and I couldn't just put my foot on the brake to see. I had to actually start the car.

Great dependable cars

My second Impala that I've owned. I think they are very dependable. I had no major repairs done just headlight bulbs, battery, ect. I love the sponewer muscle look on the newer models.

Good car

We purchased a 08 Impala SS. Has the 5.3 motor but it does 24 city and 16 highway. Good family car and still has the sporty feel to it.

Great car for the money!

I've had this car for 2 days now and it's been a great car for being the fully loaded LTZ model. Has everything i could want in an impala. It's a great highway cruiser and good on gas! Although i would prefer it to be black with black leather interior. Overall it's a great car!

Handles great it the snow!

I love my 2008 Impala. I bought it used last year and haven?t had an issue yet. My favorite thing is how well it handles in the snow. There is no sliding or getting stuck. It is also spacious and feels sturdy even though it is 10 years old.
