2005 Chevrolet Impala LS review from North America
"This car is a superb value and extremely comfortable on daily commutes"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rubber trim around front and rear windows rolled up in the top corners (hot and humid Georgia summer). Took this in and it was repaired in two hours.
General comments?
This car has one of the top 2 or 3 V6 engines in the world.
The transmission is smooth and consistent.
The interior is much more simple and subdued than other cars of the same year and class, a style that I admire. Some people I have had in the car think the interior is dull or outdated. I, on the other hand, was drawn to the design. It is one of the biggest reasons I bought this car.
My one complaint with the interior is how the door handles are designed. They are too rounded and tend to slip out of your hand if you have any moisture on your skin.
