New features for 2006:

A $12,000 rebate :p

On a serious note, as difficult it is to believe, Chevrolet has actually IMPROVED the looks of one of their models.

EDIT:

Didnt notice thats the the 5.3 motor, I guess they are going to start dumping that motor in everything, its going to be in the Monte Carlo as well. Not a bad choice, they have had good luck with that motor in the pick-ups.

303 HP is sweet. I don't like those wheels but I like the rest of the car just fine. :thumbsup:

RWD before 2009.

I imagine this Impala wont have a problem lighting them up when mashing it from like 35mph :)

Looks nice. I could be wrong but 27 mpg highway out a 300+hp V8 seems pretty good.

It is indeed. The pushrod GM V-8s have shown the ability to produce great highway mileage over the years.

I agree. I like the old one better, exept for the piss-poor interior quality.
That 3.9l V6 they offer for it, is that a bored out 3800 Series II V6 or something new?
