On a seperate note, Its funny how many school parking lot accidents happen because of overconfident dumbasses and such

[@vegasbab.y3740]

Its still a powerful car. The 3.6 liter is actually faster than 3.9 liter SS the 3.6 can do a 0-60 under 5.2 seconds. And its a family sedan. Not a sports car. But sadly my 3.5 liter impala is under 7 seconds. :( but it only has 211hp the 3.6 has 305 from the 2012 3.6 to the current impala. But the latest model with the 3.6 can do a 0-60 in 6.0 seconds. Faster than the Chrysler 300C and the C is the fastest version. It has 345 or around there. And it still beats it. Idk. I agree with you in terms with looks. But power. They seem like they have more power now.

[@vegasbab.y3740]

insert name yah. I mean. I had a Chrysler 300 just the basic 2018 one. And I can do some burn outs in it. And I haven’t crashed that car doing burn outs in it. I drove out of a small parking space with a truck to my left. And a suv on my right. I drove out fast. And I whipped it a bit. And it did it like the stupid dodge commercials I was like OKAY LITTLE CHRYSLER. 😅😂I could try and do it in my 2011 impala. But it won’t work. I’ve tried.

The 64 and 96 Impala is my favorite car of all time. Absolutely gorgeous rides. They just killed the game in the 60’s, 70’s, and 90’s with the impalas.

[@NewYorkMikeG]

I have a 2019 Impala Midnight Edition and I absolutely love it. It's comfy, the sound system is great, it looks hot, not too common so I never get confused in a parking garage, and just a bunch of fun. It's cool to park it next to my Dad's '67. I wish Chevy had done more to promote it and show how cool it is. I never saw a single commercial or ad for it, except where it was seen as a cop car chasing another Chevy in an OnStar commercial after it was already announced to be discontinued.

[@vincecusumano4184]

[@Henry14141]

The reason they aren't on show room floors right now is because they were actually built in Australia, and the plant they were built at was being shut down, so they couldn't make them any more.

[@BigCherries]

David Hill yup it hurt a little when they did that.

[@marcust510]

Henry I’m already knowing. I guess my point is if they marketed the SS/Commodore as a Monte Carlo or impala here in the states from the beginning, sales may have influenced GM enough to keep it around for a little longer than they did. At the end the of the day these companies make a good sized portion of decisions based off the demand of consumers. So if sales justified a demand for it, then maybe its lifespan, at the very least, would’ve been stretched a year or two. & that demand possibly could’ve been created by using one of those old names. It’s like GM didn’t even try. Missed opportunity for them in my book

My only counter-point to that is this: the whole point of a muscle car is low-buck car with massive power, which is what the GTO package was (high performance for the poverty pack Tempest). The Impala was the highest trim for full-size Chevys, and hardly affordable compared to a basic Biscayne, which didn’t have a 409 available.

Unpopular opinion : Ninth Gens look cool. Have a 2011 and I am actually quite happy with it. Yeah.... it’s a car.... just a car..... but it has a special place in my heart. 🤷🏻‍♂️ However I am big about 1959 and seventh generation models as well! 🙌🏻

Agree. A year later and my 2011 still rocks. 193K Miles but here I am still rocking it. Your oil change every 5K miles, recently got 4 new tires and am currently working on other additions to the car without killing the stock look too much.

That's great to hear! The W Body Impala has a great aftermarket so parts are out there so it won't be hard to give it your own look. :) Still running my imp stock for now. But have always considered buying a second one (SS). want to do modifications for the track.

Heres a video game nerd fact for all you folks who actually played the Twisted Metal games, there's a character's car which is called Thumper and it's a Pink low rider themed Impala, it's been through changes but the looks of the car has always been based off the 60's impalas, Except for the 4th game in the series.

The engineering achievement to get so little power out of 8.2 litres is truly magnificent.

[@DaDeCodeIsTruth]

anywhere ear what Big blocks were farting out at idle. You go big displacement because it's easy and allows for under-stressed hp and torque across the entire powerband. This allows for extreme longevity from the powerplant. Unlike many small displacement engines which literally slowly kill themselves with each run to red line.

You should see my truck, the dodge 8.0L V10 only making 310 HP.

@@mattm6883 bro that's just sad. I know modern cars suck but even in the 90s we had cars that would do like 170HP from a 2Liter straight 4 and still be going strong for like 250000 miles. Here in Europe, Germany people are afraid of cubic capacity over 2.0 liter and it's just sad to see the other end with 1,4Liter Turbo straight 4 blown up on 160HP just to be efficient...

You missed some important accolades for the Impala. The 1965 Impala was so popular that it sold over a million units that year alone. The Seventh gen Impala was also so wildly popular that Chevy was pumping out models deep into December 1996.
