Fold down rear seats
Fun to drive. Needs more cup holders! Did not get fold down rear seats option. This could be a problem, seeing that there is no keyhole to access the trunk. If you have dead battery, you won't be able to get jumper cables out of trunk.

Great car
After heavily researching the Honda Accord, Subaru Forester and a variety of SUV's, 0% APR on the 2006 Chevy Impala SS prompted my wife and I to take a test drive. Glad we did. Total miles so far: 1,500. The interior is simply configured, no hard to find controls. Plenty of room in both the front and rear seats, and it has a distinctive exterior look. Then we drove it. Wow. More than enough power to handle any traffic situation, merging or otherwise. We have a family of 4 (kids age 11 and 16). Longest trip so far has been 260 round trip miles.
Nice car with a few quirks
Love remote start. Engine performance fine (acceleration at all speeds). Mileage decent (wish it were a little better). Handles pretty good. Stay away from the cloth interior. Dash makes some kind of noise (rubbing of some sorts). Seems to happen on bumpy roads. Trunk space nice
I guess I'm not the only one
I am in the U.S. Navy and traveled a lot my first 2 years I owned the car. At 37,000 miles, the transmission went out and had to be replaced. At 45,000 miles the steering went out and had to be replaced. The air sensors have not worked after the first year. Now I have the car overseas and it is impossible to find replacement parts or get the recall items fixed. My water pump went out in Bahrain and I had to have my original dealer in NJ find a spare and have it FedEx to me. I am waiting on my car to be shipped to Korea and I already know that there is no one here that can fix it. The car looks good and drives good, but the maintenance is a nightmare and expensive.
