1996 Chevrolet Impala ss review from North America
"Outstanding classic-like automobile"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing so far, have only had the car for 3 months.
General comments?
This car is seriously quick and handles like it's on rails with police suspension.
Handles more like my Nissan Sentra SE-R than a large 3400 pound highway cruiser.
Very strong acceleration, it easily spins the tires at lights with 330 lb./ft. of torque.
World class braking with 12 inch disc brakes all around and ABS.
Looks mean, like The Devil's Parade Float, and rides like Black Magic.
