Edmunds' Expert Review

by the Edmunds Experts

Pros

Six-passenger seating availability, good crash test scores, torquey V6 engines.

Cons

Vague steering, soggy suspension on base and LS models, low-buck interior.

What’s new

The supercharged Impala SS joins the lineup for 2004. Besides offering 240 horsepower, the SS features a tightened suspension to allow it to take corners with a bit more gusto. Base and LS models have redesigned bench and bucket seats, and a sport appearance package is now available on the base sedan.

Edmunds says

The 240-horse SS adds some much needed excitement to the Impala lineup, but this full-size sedan still lags behind the competition when it comes to refinement.

2004 Chevrolet Impala 4dr Sedan (3.4L 6cyl 4A)

I've been blessed with the opportunity to drive multiple cars ranging from a 7 series BMW, a Cadillac Eldorado, and multiple chevy's.

Every day I get in and it cranks right up regardless of what may be …

2004 Chevrolet Impala 4dr Sedan (3.4L 6cyl 4A)

I bought this car used on the last day of 2007; it had 75000 miles on it. In the past 110,000 miles/~8 years of ownership this has been a very reliable car. It consistently gets 28MPG on the highway. It has a smooth ride, and the seats are quite comfortable. The driver's side has adjustable lumbar support. The controls are all easily reachable while driving. Handles in the snow like a …

2004 Chevrolet Impala 4dr Sedan (3.4L 6cyl 4A)

I bought this car from my dad, with nearly two-hundred thousand miles on it. Granted, he treated that thing well, but it's still rolling like new. The only problems it's had was a broken fuel gauge and a warped rotor.
