Great car if your looking for value in a nice car. Not the most modern, but modern has a premium cost. Can’t go wrong with a Chevy

A problem with chattering in the left front drive module. Three repairs($1500) by the Banning Chevrolet dealer and a $700. repair by an independent repair shop in Banning failed to correct the problem. The trade in value was lost due to the problem. I bought a Dodge Charger in place of it.

Well, I'm on the cusp of my 31st birthday and I have decided to finance my first vehicle. I love cars. I played racing games growing up, I watch Top Gear, I'm in the loop. Speed, Power, and Style are all highly appealing to me. But, with that said, I live in the city. I commute to work everyday. I hope to travel. And, I'm not rich. I needed a car that fit my profile and the deal needed to be right. The Impala was the perfect selection. I don't give a care about it's dime a dozen style, or it's plastic interior, it's a great car. These new V-6's crank out power with zero effort. I absolutely love when it comes time to pass or merge, it just tickles me pink. Luckily, I won't be cruising any mountain ranges any time soon like your latest Acura commercial, so I don't need sports care steering. Honestly, the steering isn't great. The steering wheel is tight and it doesn't attack corners, but it doesn't matter. I don't need that when I pull into Walgreens. The cabin has all the space you need, and plenty of road presence. Everything everybody likes about the cars in these reviews are true. In short, I just wanted to drop in and advise not to split hairs over professional reviews. They are after innovation, design, and refinement. The Impala lacks primarily in innovation. However, this will save you thousands. When I was looking at a $13,000 Impala that's fully loaded at 55k miles and it's right next to a Honda Accord with the same mileage but at $17,000, the decision was clear to me. It's all about the driver.

Most reliable car ever!

We bought our '13 Impala LTZ in the spring of 2013, and though it looks plain on the outside, it's quiet, comfortable, and best of all, fast. Fast-forward ten years and 120,000 miles later, and other than tires and a set of brake pads, the cost of ownership has only been a replacement wheel and strut because of a typical Michigan pothole. I'm going through it this spring, and doing a comprehensive maintenance on it to include new brake hoses, serpentine belt, new fluids, plug wires, and plugs, "just because". We live in the rust-belt, and have had zero corrosion issues. It always starts, always stops, and on long trips, knocks down 30 MPG. The six-speed transmission and the 300 horsepower engine are fantastic. Visibility is great, unlike the newer Impala. Interior-wise, everything still looks great, and the leather is holding up nicely. I'm keeping this one.

2013 Impala LT

This is my 3rd Impala and I must say I love mine. It handles beautifully in all weather conditions and I've never about it slipping and sliding underneath me in the snow. The MPG is about what it is rated give or take upon my driving as with any vehicle. The only thing I would change is the seating. The seating accommodates 5 comfortably, bucket seats in the front, but the comfort in the seats for long trips could be better, my 2005 was my comfortable in the backseat.
