  • Solid Performer - 2007 Chevrolet Impala
    By -

    This was the third Chevy I bought in succession. The prior two were a 1998 Monte Carlo and a 2003 Impala LE. I chose the SS for the added torque and performance that are missing in the V6 Impala models. The car handles well and the performance is there when needed. Gas economy is fair. I have had no mechanical issues with this car. I have all regularly scheduled maintenance done either at the dealers or at the local Jiffy Lube. I tore the fiberglass front running it up on some snow in a parking lot last winter. I am sure that this will be an issue at lease end. I was surprised at the amount of damage for such minor impact. The front design of the car is unforgiving for minor impact

  • THOUSANDS less than a Camry - 2007 Chevrolet Impala
    By -

    Having looked at hundreds of reviews and test driven at least a dozen different used sedans,I settled on the Impala. Why? Power. The Impala LT has 211 horsepower, the equivalent Camry only 155. The difference on the road is not slight. Nor is the price. The 2007 Camry I was looking at was going for 19,000, The Impala for 14. It was no contest. I tried a Honda Accord and the seats nearly destroyed my back just in a test drive. Way too hard as was the price. The Impala is a light, very quick sedan with bucketloads of power. The transmission wants to clunk out of first gear unless you hit the gas. This is a car that WANTS to be driven quick. A light, excellent handling, powerful sedan.

    Dont know why anyone would want more car except for luxury. Not as comfortable as my Town Cars...more fun and economical, however.

  • Not too bad, not too great - 2007 Chevrolet Impala
    By -

    I like the car overall. My car is fire engine red, but not gaudy looking. Its very classy, comfortable and I get lots of compliments. As I read the reviews, I noticed several others with the same problems Ive had. Drivers door leaks in the rain (very minor), door moldings have peeled up twice, and the tire sensors had to be replaced. Overall, it has been a good car, but there are just a few fairly simple design features that could use some improvements. It is a pretty classy car though!

    Bought used. Already have had new tires, alignment, brakes, steering shaft, battery, and now the alternator is squealing, just past the warranty expiration date. The rear end bushings squeak, and the seat heaters refuse to work when you sit down in them.

  • I Love it & Hate it! - 2007 Chevrolet Impala
    By -

    I really love my 07 Impala SS. Im debating if I should get rid of it or should I play with it by adding a high performance exhaust, performance chip, cold air intake, the works! But this car constantly is in the shop for transmission problems. Something with the torque converter. The same problem every time. Okay, I drove the heck out of her when I first bought it. The car has become unreliable. Oh well. Ill just drive my 86 Cutlass Supreme. That car never breaks down.

  • Disappointed - 2007 Chevrolet Impala
    By -

    Very disappointed, bad paint quality and interior pieces, especially the drivers seat, continue to fall apart. Now just lost both by transmission and torque converter at 74000 miles. Guess that is why GM only stands behind their transmissions for 36000 miles. It is a very fun car to drive, no questions, and I routinely get 26-28 MPG on highway. Tire air pressure monitors are useless and I also have a short in the car no one can find and I keep having dead batteries. They cost around $200 if you buy them and install them yourself and you can plan on adding another $50 to have it installed.

  • Impala SS: Update to my 01/21/08 Review - 2007 Chevrolet Impala
    By -

    I thought I would update my 01/21/08 review to help fellow readers my ratings have been adjusted a little bit. Since Jan 08 I have added a complete Magnaflow exhaust system, K&N intake, and had the car extensively dynotuned. I realize these are steps most owners will not take to fully explore the SSs capabilities, but if you do-- wow! Highway MPG is up slightly, 0-60 times are down to the low 5s, HP is now around 335. Friends and clients often ask to drive the car they love the room, the power, and how tight the car feels. My SS is Silverstone Metallic & garners many "Thats so classy!" comments. The only downside is that Ive had the steering shaft replaced under warranty.

  • I got a bad one! - 2007 Chevrolet Impala
    By -

    I bought this car last summer and have had several problems ever since. The tires and its sensors have been going bad since day one. Had all sensors and tires replaced. At 16K miles, the AC compressor went out and busted the drive belt. Transmission leaks in the upper seal and gasket, which I took care of in my mechanic shop. Suspension was replaced on the left side due to a minor accident, but its still not the same. Im really disappointed with this vehicle. Ive wasted a lot of time getting this car in and out of the shop. Both my parents have new Chevys and thats all weve owned. I guess I just got the bad one in the bunch.

  • Better than the Impala SS - 2007 Chevrolet Impala
    By -

    I had purchased on 06 Impala SS. What a dud, handled poorly, terrible torque steer. Got rid of it and bought 07 Impala 3.5 FFV which handled much better than the SS! Very functional, geographically challenged wife loves turn by turn navigation and XM radio. Gets good mileage and is well equiped for safety. Glad I got the FFV which is about 4 mpg less than regular but at over a buck difference it is worth it.
