A friend had an 01 Saab turbo 5 speed for sale at a good price. I had my 03 Impala LS detailed for $200 which included painting over chips, scrapes and removing the many bumper scratches from single stall garage with tree behind. Engine light on, $89. Saab had slightly better mileage but when I got my car back it looked like new and still performs well. I'll keep another 5 yrs until cars get over 50mpg.

Have LS. Fun Car to drive, great pickup and good milage. Buying experience painless. Service is an issue. Conte's service department's response to issues : It bottoms out going up or down ramps even at slowest speeds (5mph) ..told that's normal! If I stop and immediately start Impala's engine turns several times and there's a delay in dash lights coming on, told they didn't find anything wrong! Occasional hesitation under acceleration, they couldn't find anything wrong! Trunk popped with keyfob doesn't open all the way and hard to close..you guessed it.."normal". Moisture inside right headlamp, replaced headlamp and..still moisture.Too bad..nice car otherwise.

I think my ratings say it all... car is very new so my reliability ratings aren't based on lots of experience.

The discounts available on these cars bring the actual price down to the economy car level. I would not have bought this car for 21000. At 15 you are talking about one of the least expensive 6 passenger cars in the world. The 3.4 litre motor is not over stressed in the configuration provided here. interior is very good for large people who have long legs. And the available bench seat brings me back to the good old days. Some of those old fashioned features are still good today. I also like the trunk design. I work in an auto plant and have repaired many trunk mechanisms. This is an amazingly simple hinge that works well.

One of the best safety ratings.

I bought this car because it was inexpensive (compared to other cars in its class) and last year's model has one of the highest safety ratings (http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/NCAP/SList2.cf m). I purchased this car for the same amount as a 2002. The outside noise is a little loud, but not excessively so. Cup holders in front seat can't be closed or hidden. Not sure how long cup holders will last.
