Loving my Impala - 2005 Chevrolet Impala
By Jazzy - April 10 - 8:06 amThis is one comfy car - it corners well, handles well, is responsive, has both pep and good gas economy. TONS of room with a giant trunk. There is a bit of excess noise with the moon-roof opened, and no factory-made windscreen for it. Heater fan gets loud, and it is time to get a set-by-temperature feature instead of the slide bar to control heat.

Quiet and smooth - 2005 Chevrolet Impala
By john anderson - January 25 - 2:26 pmIm very pleased with how smooth and quiet this car is. I got over 21 mpg city and 27 hwy despite miles of stop and go work zones. I think OnStar is a great feature. I love the security it gives me, and XM radio is just great. I got belted with a hard rain and no leaks and no brake fade. I feel if everyone drove an Impala, they wouldnt buy anything else .I am amazed at how quiet and smooth the motor and transmission are. You cant hear it during normal driving. I also think its the best looking car.

Good Value - 2005 Chevrolet Impala
By berne1 - May 4 - 11:20 pmThe Impala is a good value for the money. I got the SS model because of the supercharged engine and sportier exterior features. With the wheels and SS spoiler, the car really is an improvement over the base and LS models in the looks department. There is a lot of interior room for the size of the car. Fit and finish are great, this car is put together very nicely. I like the additional gauges you get with the SS vs. the other models (boost, etc.).

Impala LS - 2005 Chevrolet Impala
By ddumby - March 18 - 11:56 pmStill has new car feel 8 months later. Steering is sharp and ride is smooth. Extremely comfortable car to drive or ride in for long trips. Mid priced with a luxury feel.
