A Little Bit of Advice needed
Alright everyone. As of lately, I've been looking for something to not so much "replace" Vonny, but more "step in" her place. She'* getting up there in the years and she'* showing it a bit. I've only had her for a year and I love her to pieces. I've been looking at SVT Lightnings, Impala'* and GTO'*. I know, very very different vehicles. I've always loved Impala'*, Lightnings and GTO'*. I'm leaning more towards the cars now after looking at a bunch of different goats. So now it'* really just between the goat and the Impala. I know it all boils down to preference but I can't make up my mind. The Impala is a sedan while the GTO is a coupe. This really isn't a problem since I never really have anybody in my back seat. But still. I think the GTO is just gorgeous and I could get one with about 40,000 on the clock for about $13,000-$14,000. That'* pretty much the same price point for an 08 Impala LS. Are there any pros or cons to the GTO. Are they prone to anything negative. Any issues with them? I really am interested in one and I have my eye on a real beauty. Please help. Anything would be great. Thanks guys.

i have an 08 Impala LT that i got to replace the Binnie with. and i love it almost as much power as the bonnie but better fuel economy. mine also has almost every option and i got it fo a steal so maybe i'm biased but it all comes down to what you really need. 2 or 4 doors? good gas mileage? sporty?

if you want a coupe version of an impala, check out the 06-07 Monte Carlo.
generally, they were more optioned per trim level than the impalas anyway.
the 3900 and 5.3 versions are fun as hell too! the 3500 is a little less so.
