test drove the new Impala SS.......WOW
Decided to test drive the new impala SS just to see how it compares. Well all I can say is wow. The power is available everywhere and dod i dare say it has too much power for that car.
The car would kill my GXP and destroy any SSEi I have ever seen or heard of. Move over N* and 3800s you have been owned
Before you guys start combating me drive a 06 SS and find out.
You know what I am just on a speed high right now so please bear with me...

The new Impy is .1 seconds faster then the GP GXP. Its a serious car, while looking...not so serious.
Chevy done it right. Personally I like it more then the 96 SS, the 96 reminds me of the Buick Roadmaster. This new SS is refined, more compact and really fast.
Its a true sleeper. Put the Impala LTZ next to an SS and its hard to tell which one is which, but once you light it up, the questions end.

Not to mention the aftermarket for the LT1 is pretty large and since it is already a V8, going with an LS1 would probably not be hard.
LS1'* get great mpg too
