Chevy did not stop making these because of horrible gas mileage. This car was giving you 25 mpg highway which is great for a full size sedan. They stopped making it cause they were focused more on building the Tahoe and Yukon at the Arlington plant where the Impala was built. Gas mileage had nothing to do with it since the Tahoe was only getting 15 mpg.

$1400 got my 94 Impala SS!!🤩🤩 It was an online government auction. They listed as a Caprice. But I saw the door sticker that it had the 17” rims. The “WX3” on the trunk sticker. 🤩🤩Everyone thought it was a clone😴😴😴198k mi. Solid body that needs a repaint and the interior needs to be reupholstered. Has a salvage title because it was a 🚔 confiscation. It had the original window sticker in the glove box. I’m the 2nd owner!! I plan on keeping it so I’ll be fine with the salvage tile. I just have to get it inspected for a rebuilt title.

I am retired NYPD and a '95 Caprice 9C1 owner this is a great and accurate video. The '94-'96 GM B-Body aka Impala SS/Caprice 9C1(I guess you can toss in the Buick Roadmaster too) is way more mod friendly with a whole lot more go fast parts available than the Ford Crown Vic and the other Panther platform cars. You can even get complete high performance suspension setups from outfits like SC&C, Speedtech and others. Fun fact: the front suspension is the same as the 2nd Gen F-Body(Camaro and Firebird) designed by GM's suspension wizard Herb Adams. One reason why they handled so well for a "big car". The Highway Units in my Department loved them more then the Vic's. Oh they loved the Vics but the Caprice were faster and had more power. The Vics didn't get to the 250 HP mark until way into the 21 Century. You are right the 4L60e is a POS of a transmission. Don't ask me how I know.

My original 96 SS was dyno'd multiple times on a Mustang dyno (real eddy-current load dyno, not the dynojet empty drum dyno) which gives more conservative readings. The corrected HP was consistently more like 290-295 and torque was 345-350 ft-lbs. Yes, these were under-rated and pulled very hard, even at high speed and high rpm. I love these motors. Before the 15 flavors of LS graced junk yards in the early 2000s, these were swapped into everything.

Heck, I just bought a real good 96 chevy caprice with 5.7L for $600 about a month ago. It was sorta barn find. I was on a service call & saw the caprice for sale on side of the road in an empty field. The car was dirty looking (due to being driven on many dirt roads) but in excellent condition under the hood & interior wise. I plan to do some mods & keep it asleep as well as soon as spring gets here. The reason I knew it had the 5.7L motor because it had the original dual exhaust out back. The 4.3L had the single tail pipe.

I have the L99 and I love it, the baby LT1 does pretty good on gas if I dont gun it alot. No major issues with engine, even replaced the optispark with a unit I ordered from Ebay bout a year or ago and it still starts up everytime all the time. I agree with another person here on how GM used the most cheapest plastic interior parts they can muster but with a little fabrication it can be made nice again. Overall these cars are simply the shit when properly took care of

My first car was a retired caprice K9 unit with a 350 ci and yes it will do every bit of 156! But that shit was scary

Bro you can drop that car off of the empire State building and it will not do 156mph. You Speedo was fast that's all and the Caprice police cars are not faster than the crown vics on interstate just speaking from my experience and my racing. .... 156mph lol lol

Ok you got it man you and your 156mph Caprice and yes the crown does top out at 130ish and the Caprice on paper top speed is about 135 to 140 at the most and like I said speaking from my experience the Caprice will come off the line a little faster than the crown but definitely would not beat the crown on the interstate 60 to 130 it's a good ass race between the two of you own a crown you would know this and bro I'm not hating on you Im just speaking the facts stop Caprice will never hit 156 I don't know what rode you're driving on or how many miles you're going you must be on a high speed test track 😂 lol and on top of that the crown is doing it with a smaller motor 281ci vs 350ci ??? and just as fast all love bro no hate just car guys debating PS father's old school drag racer been around cars whole life ford Chevy and Dodge so I'm not being biased towards one and I would love to see you go to a car meet and say you have a stock Caprice that does 156 they will laugh you out of the parking

I got side swiped no title 1995 Caprice with 4.3 V8. Had change radiator, optnispark it's breeze just watch video on it your golden. Everything is eazy to get to cheap and plentiful. Dash pad are all cracked I bought Bondo mine. Color on out side is dark green gray metallic. Inside gray cloth. I cut drive seat made bucket seats throw junkyard blazer console in. Caprice civilian just needs better shocks and rear end no disc brakes. Spoiler and grill plug hood hole and new old stock trunk emblem. Door panels and bucket seats and rims will kill your budget. Skip everything on list go straight LS swap.

Not even close to 5k lbs. They weighed 4200. MPG was about 22, not bad. The only problem with the LT1 was the Opti; where you came up with rod failures and such is unknown (dealer for 30 years, specializing in B/D body GM and GM trucks). The trans is a typical auto, they all die around 150k regardless of maker. If you have one that lasted longer you got lucky. ALSO, the only difference between an SS and a 9C1? The trim, the interior, the suspensions, the gears, rear end width, brakes, tail lights, spoiler.base options... It's easier to turn a nice regular Caprice into an SS clone than to do it with a cop car. I feel somewhat dumber after watching your vid.
