Used 2007 Chevrolet Impala SS 4dr Sedan (5.3L 8cyl 4A) Consumer Reviews
About Time!
I have always been a Chevy fan. After Chevy dropped the Camaro I was disappointed like millions of others. I hope the brain behind that move got canned. They have now returned with a true performer. Chevy started the muscle car era with the '55 Chevy. They have now built a car that others will follow and try to catch just like the '55. This car is a bargain for what you get! I'm very pleased!
Needs some tweaking, but could be awesome!
Expected better mileage on the highway. Window sticker shows 27, not even getting 20 as of right now. Engine wants to stall at stop lights with air on max. Water gets inside door frame when washing car, have to dry out inside of door frame. Sometimes there's lifter or valve rattling. Too much power for a front wheel drive vehicle, can get away on you if not careful.
Love my SS!!
I own a 2007 Impala SS. I bought it primarily to tow a 27' Airstream coming in at 4,000Lbs. I've added 2 items to the car: K&N Cold-air intake and Magnaflow Performance mufflers. The numbers are now around 325hp & 340 torque. Don't try to tow anything heavy unless you have a custom hitch made (Can-Am RV in London, Ontario is THE best Tow experts). In general, the car is a joy to drive and handles very well (watch out for torque steering - hold tight). The 5.3L LS4 V8 and the 4t65e HD transaxle have handled the towing (so far) with ease (remember I'm towing an Airstream). The interior is comfortable and well laid out. I prefer the faux wood dash of an LTZ; I have a silver carbon-fibre look that is quite nice, clean. I know there are some haters out there who do not believe a muscle car can be FWD. I respectfully submit that they are wrong!

Very nice car.
Very nice car for the money. Fast comfortable and better fuel economy than I would have expected. Combined fuel economy has been 19mpg..have gotten as high as 28.9mpg on the highway. Wanted to buy a Chrysler 300C but decided to keep the $10k in the bank. I have not had any problems with the car and would recommend an Impala to anyone. High praise from a Mopar buyer. For a front driver with a V8 the torque steer is not all that objectionable. I wanted to buy an American car and after 31000+ miles I am happy with my decision.

Traded a BMW 3 Series for the Impala. Best value for a sports sedan with plenty of legroom and trunk space.
