  First Sport Appearance Package - 2002 Chevrolet Impala
  By C AFranz - July 12 - 2:00 am

  We bought it with every option from dealers inventory. We much prefer th rear appearance with the Silver sport appearance package The steering wheel controls are nice, the hands free cell phone great and the seat controls very functional. I could use lower mounted cup holders in the doors and of course, more HP. The highway mileage is outstanding with one trip at 33 mpg using cruise control.

  Great for BIG people - 2002 Chevrolet Impala
  By dtairtime - July 10 - 2:00 am

  Edmunds reviewers must be little people. They feel the Subaru, Ford and VW are better cars in this price range. They might be, but Im 63" and those cars are too small. I am happy with my purchase (I bought it in Jan. of 2000) and have not had any problems that the dealer didnt go out of their way to correct - all little things. The trunk is HUGE, the car can accommidate 5 full-size people and my only complaint is the use of way too much hard cheap plastic in the interior.

  Impala LS for 57" and over - 2002 Chevrolet Impala
  By sportrjt - October 16 - 10:00 am

  I have owned this car for four days. Drove 220 miles and my right knee and leg hurted all night. This car is not designed for people 57" and over. The driver seat does not go back far enough. You have to turn totally around to open the console. The console is too far back. Although the car is a sports car of like, it rides kind of rough and wobbly. The driver will continuously bump their knee and scoff the bottom of the drivers door when getting out the car. Y

  Impala! - 2002 Chevrolet Impala
  By Crunch61 - September 3 - 10:00 am

  I guess I would have to say that I love this car. The Impala rides like a dream (although the suspension is a bit on the soft side - more luxury than sport which is ok by me), and its QUIET! (inside AND out). Its nice to be able to roll up the windows and not hear the traffic! I have the seat-package upgrade which includes the interior trim mod and the grip handles... Much more comfortable than the standard seats. I had five adults in the car and all were comfortable. Performance is good with the standard 3.4L engine though I wish I had opted for the 3.8L. Still, I dont have any trouble getting in and out of traffic. My overall rating is VERY GOOD!

  The Best Car to Drive - 2002 Chevrolet Impala
  By Cam - September 14 - 10:00 am

  Tired of feeling cramped in those long car rides? Try the Chevy Impala. The handling of this vehicle is more like a mid sized car then a full sized car. But the spacious interior and the smooth ride is just like a luxury vehicle.
