Overview & Reviews

GM has resurrected the Impala nameplate (a staple in Chevy's lineup from 1959 to the early '80s and then briefly from 1994 to '96 ) and put it on an all-new full-size sedan body that rides on the Lumina front-drive platform. Although the Lumina itself is back for the 2000 model year, Impala will eventually replace it as Chevy's large-car entry to battle the likes of Ford's Crown Victoria, Buick's LeSabre and Chrysler's LH cars.

• Six-passenger seating availability, big brakes, torquey V6 engines.

• So-so styling, no V8, big front-drive cars rarely sell as well as big rear-drivers.

  Awesome Impala LS - 2000 Chevrolet Impala
  By Kubes - June 1 - 2:00 am

  I bought my Impala used with 35k. Its been awesome since I owned it, no problems whatsoever. It currently has 51k and feels brand new. Great power, handling, comfort. Much higher quality and comfort than previous foreign vehicles. I cant recommend this vehicle enough!

  By Cheap Lux Freek - May 26 - 2:00 am

  the back end is very high makes it hard to back up and park (Sporty look) so thats a good thing and a bad thing. The steering is too heavy, keeps my wife off the driver seat )thats also good and bad! glove box made for a pack of gum. Come-On Chevy its a full size car.!!

  hate to love it - 2000 Chevrolet Impala
  By lbfletch73 - May 25 - 2:00 am

  I loved the Impala. Fell in love with the new model when it was released in October of 1999. I was so excited when I purchased my used 2000 model. I have not had anything but problems with it since. If the message center doesnt drive you crazy (which it will) the un- ending repairs will. I have talked with other dealership service areas and they have said theyve seen Impalas with consistent problems. I loved my car, right into bankruptcy. Buyer beware.

  Good car - but do I want another? - 2000 Chevrolet Impala
  By Daddyio - May 4 - 2:00 am

  Bought the 2000 in June 1999. Weve put 77,000 miles on with just the minimum normal upkeep. 1 annoying thing - the front window would "ping" like a pebble hit it when the tempurature inside was cooler than out. Weird and annoying!! I just totalled it and my husband wants to replace with new one - same color, etc. They dont seem to have changed in 4 years, except for being $4,000 more. I want to change, but maybe just for change sake. Any comments??

  I love my car. It is fun to drive and I feel very safe behind the wheel. It handles well in all types of weather. The gas mileage is decent in the city. The trunk room is incredible.

  Engine Cradle/Transmission Problems - 2000 Chevrolet Impala
  By Mike Austin - April 23 - 2:00 am

  This car ran well at first. However,creaking and rattling noises started in the front of the car, noted in steering wheel. Dealer installed cradle shims (replaced twice). Transmission went at 100,000 miles (torque converter and 4th gear). Was told by servicing company the transmisison was new for 2000, and has reliability problems. Other 2000 Impalas were taken to the same service shop due to transmission. Also, rotors warp and need to be replaced often. I also had a problem with charcoal canister and emission system. I also had a problem with headliner sagging near sunroof. It is a shame that GM produced a car with this many mechanical problems.

  Excellent Value - 2000 Chevrolet Impala
  By friendofricks - April 21 - 2:00 am

  Just over 3 yrs, 24k+ miles. Agree with all the positives from the other reviewers share only a few of the negatives: slight vibration in steering column, dealer repaired under warranty, needing only lubricant. Notice slight shake in wheel when braking lightly at higher speed (rotor issue noted by others?) hesitation once in a blue moon when lightly accelerating. Tranny went on a friends Impala at 32k, but replaced under warranty. Mine is flawless so far. This is a good, comfortable, attractive, fun car, and perhaps the best overall value for $. Domestic nay- sayers should give it a good honest look.

  going back 2 foreign - 2000 Chevrolet Impala
  By mr. marbles - April 8 - 2:00 am

  Ive been driving my 2000 Impala for 3 years now and Im less than satisfied. Ive had continuous problems with the Coolant-leaks and sensor related. In cold weather it often barely starts & sounds like its 10 yrs old instead of 3. Interior is cheap looking. It seems there is always a warning light coming on. Paid 7K less for my wifes Civic which ran for 8 years without any problems. GM has lost me. Im going back to Honda with my next car.
