2008 Chevrolet Impala

Solid sedan with tight fit and very nice power....

By Danny9 (GA) on Friday, May 17, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 11,500

Pros: "Great power, best cu. ft. cargo cap in class...."

Cons: "No complaints"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"....this vehicle has proven to be well made, with no squeeks, rattles, or extra noises. The power of the 3.6 engine, at 302hp is sweet. The comfort of the smooth ride, heated front seats, dual climate zone air is more than adequate. ....I can find nothing to complain about with this vehicle."

"The chevy impala does everything well from going around curves on a country road to driving down long stretches of highway at high speeds to driving in the city all the while getting great gas mileage I love this car the only thing that has went wrong with it was the transmission at 170,000 The repair was not cheap at $2000.00 but was well worth it I think this car can go to over 300,000 miles if it is properly maintained through oil changes transmission flushes fuel filter and air filter replacement etc."

Better then expected!

By Steph (KY) on Wednesday, April 24, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 34,000

Cons: "Small cup-holders; slightly-plain design."

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 9

"I was looking for a reliable vehicle for my family after having dealt with a ten-year old SUV. The impala was suggested to me, and even though I had a bad impression due to older impala reviews, I decided to test drive; and after test driving, I found I really liked it. That hasn't changed! It is a lot smoother then I expected (and I love the 6-speed auto-shift!). Very comfortable, everything is simple and convenient, but with all the amenities other cars have (power everything, including moonroof; easy-access buttons on steering-wheel; xm radio (although I don't use it much); OnStar; bluetooth; etc. I really do love my car, and I can't wait to trade it in in a couple years for the new-edition Impala! (Also, this car really has some pick-up-and-go, alot more then I expected!)"

"Owned 2011 for 15 months, no issues at all. Very, very comfortable ride, plenty of power, good gas mileage on highway. One of the better cars I've owned in the past 30 years of driving and owning many different vehicles. Much smoother, predictable ride than wifes 2011 Accord."
