  Very nice ride, smooth & comfortable. Miles per gallon is low but I dont drive much. Zero Percent helped it make sense.

  ES 350 AT 1/2 PRICE - 2009 Chevrolet Impala
  By Jim - April 28 - 9:41 pm

  Nice tan leather interior with heated seats and simulated wood on dash. Dark Molcha exterior. Lexus-like quietness and superb Bose stereo. Nice volume controls and scan on steering wheel. E- 85 capable, On-Star, rear seat folds flat 3 things $40K Lexus doesnt have. Still proud to buy from the General. Clients I drive have commented on tight fit and finish. Makes a professional statement without being overly blatant or presumptuous. Plus makes a great family car on the weekend. Has 3 power plugs for my 2 phones and portable GPS. Nice easy to use controls for HVAC. Very logical and practical.

  Love my Impala - 2009 Chevrolet Impala
  By Elle - April 25 - 3:17 am

  My husband and I drove almost every car before we purchased our 2008 Impala LTZ. I love it so much! The interior is beautiful, and the seats are really comfortable, I love my sun roof, and both of my boys have more than enough room in the back seat. The trunk is huge! We have an Eddie Bower stroller which is huge in itself and it fits in there with room to spare. We had to evacuate when hurricane Ike came through last year, we fit one pack&play, three suit cases, stroller, briefcase, big pack of diapers&wipes, small ice chest, dog food, toys, a portable baby swing, sheets and a comforter and it all fit, with more room in there. It drives so smooth and quiet! I recommend this to anyone!

  Really needs an upgrade. - 2009 Chevrolet Impala
  By TJDasen1 - April 20 - 6:58 pm

  Handsome car on the exterior, but the interior is just not up to snuff. The Impala is supposed to be Chevys top family car and it falls flat by not offering options offered by other "lesser" cars. NO auto climate control, NO reversing sensors, NO HID headlamps! Come on! Even Hyundai offers these. And the handhold for the trunk pulldown is a joke. You can only lower the (dirty) lid with it and then you have to grab the outside of the trunk to push it the rest of the way down. Very bad design flaw. True, this is my 82 yr old mothers car and not mine, but I have to drive her in it. Whats nice is that Chevy still offers a column mounted gearshift option. Thats what sold the car. Grade C

  Love my Impala! - 2009 Chevrolet Impala

  I just bought my Impala after having bought 4 Nissans over the years. I happen to drive one through our company fleet program. After, being laid off and recently re-employed I test drove another impala. You cannot beat the value, price and look. My experience at the dealership was excellent as well. No pressure! FYI, I used Edmunds before I went and paid below what everyone else is paying....Edmunds prepared me very well!!

  By Ken - April 7 - 9:29 am

  So far I am highly impressed with this car. Its very smooth and quiet, handles nicely for this size car. I took a trip with 75% highway and 25% city driving and got over 32mph. Local driving has been around 26 mph.

  Just traded in my 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix. The Impala is great, lots of power, and loads of room. You can fit a small family in the trunk!

  09 Impala - 2009 Chevrolet Impala
  By Impala Owner - April 2 - 2:42 pm

  Ive had this car for three months and am generally satisfied. The gas mileage is excellent and the ride and handling are OK to good. The car is roomy. Outside visibility is somewhat hindered because of the door posts. No trouble so far. I would characterize this car as bland satisfactory basic transportation but other cars might offer more for the money.

  LOVE MY CAR!! - 2009 Chevrolet Impala
  By Chevfan - March 31 - 3:48 pm

  I just bought my car in March after owning an Altima and I absolutely love it! It came fully equipped with black leather seats, moon roof, spoiler, heated seats etc. I am so happy for choosing this car although all the extra stuff did sway my judgment a little! It rides very smooth and is very roomy inside. I have 3 children and it accommodates them perfectly. I would definitely recommend this vehicle.

  Im loving my new Chevrolet Impala - 2009 Chevrolet Impala
  By bigdiva78 - March 18 - 3:32 pm

  Although the interior is sort of cheesy, Im totally loving this car. I went from a 1999 Ford Contour to this vehicle and could not have made a better choice. It definitely serves the needs of my livelihood. Again, the interior design could use more work. For the most part, I am a satisfied buyer!
