The 2002 Chevrolet Impala: It's literally your grandmothers car, or at least this example is. While the loud exhaust may be a bit silly, the suspension, brake and tire modifications make this Impala an impressive handler.

I own this vehicle... I bought it in my senior year of college. It currently has 80k Miles and I have sunk no more than $1500 in repairs over the last 11 years... I paid $13k for it. Financed $5k of it and paid that off in one year. To me that's a good buy. It isn't the prettiest car. The interior has not handled the test of time... But i think in the long run for me this car was a cheap and safe car for me to learn how to treat a vehicle. Taught me to respect my car a bit more and not pack it with 7 people and then drive fast over pot holes... Taught me to be easy on my accelerator and brakes if I want them to last.

He would say how much they owed him, and if they didn't pay up the brother went in and took their Playstations, CD's, computers, TV's, etc. He would throw parties with free ecstasy, kegs, and all the weed you could smoke, all for free. It was great times for a 21 year old. Eventually the DEA kicked in his door. All went down in the Impala.

@luckyupyours8 жыл бұрын
I think his 240 hp estimate is coming from the absurd amount of torque the 3800 V6 makes at mid-rpm range. I can vouch for this as I drive a 2004 Monte Carlo SS that has a K&N intake - which is placed in a much better spot and has a heat shield. Also I put a custom PCM in my car to change the electronic throttle mapping along with the torque abuse settings on the transmission. With just doing these simple mods my car seemed to gain at least 10-15 hp.

Gonna have to disagree with you here. This series of GM engine has to be one of the worst sounding turds I've ever heard. Would srsly rather listen to a buzzing fartbox on an 80hp honda civic than the death rattle which emits from GM V6 engines.

I miss my 02 Impala LS, had no motor issues after I got it (was sitting for a year) owners before me didn't beat on it but didn't maintain it that well, money was spent on the transmission more than engine imo. I know have an 02 Trailblazer LS. Would love to have the Impala back but oh well, guy I sold it too is beating the shit out of it as we speak lol. Ik one thing, even though the LS has only 200 horses if you gun it just right from 0 it's so damn easy to skeeert the tires x'D guy got my impala with balding tires.

I have an 03 Monte with the same motor with front header, intake, 2.5" exhaust, tune, and full suspension (lowering springs, KYB AGX shocks, sway bars, strut tower brace) and interior delete. I use it for track days and the occasionally show and it absolutely eats corners. Love the car.

18 months ago I bought a 2007 Camry, 16000 miles or so, I payed like 5500 for it, I currently have 125000 miles on it. Most of these miles are on the highway, but thank god for some Grandpa who drove it over the last 8 or so years, and gave me a crazy discount on a A-B car that I've driven fairly aggressively despite its lack of pedigree.

Turbo it. 3800performance has a great kit. I've seen w-bodies of many different flavors done this way. With a relatively quiet exhaust they make amazing sleepers. Can you imagine the look on the Camaro driver's face when a Buick LaCrosse beats him stoplight to stoplight? Priceless.
