Seller Remarks The first time I drove this car, I fell in love with it. As a result, I have always taken particular care of it and it has always been kept in the garage. On the road it handles like a dream. If you’ve never driven one of these, you’re in for a treat. Around town, it will take most of the new sporty import cars at a light. I joke that it’s a hybrid, it burns gas and rubber. (But I never do that.) And unlike many Impalas, this one has not been modified in any way, except for the Impala logo valve stem caps I added. Black was always the most popular choice for this car, and it looks spectacular. My grandson hit a deer with it a couple of year ago and I had it repaired with GM parts and repainted to factory specs. (I still love him but he’s out of the will). It would take an expert to notice any difference. The only interior available with the Impala was gray leather with front bucket seats. In 1996, they moved the shifter to the console and added a tachometer and the 160 mph speedometer. The interior shows only minor signs of use, certainly in line with the mileage. The steering wheel has normal wear on the top. I put a matching cover on it but I hear they can be refinished. The front seats are in good condition with minimal wear or discoloration, and the cushion still has good support for long road trips. The back seat still looks brand new and there have been no more than a handful of passengers back there over the past 20 years. The gauges are 100% functional. I repaired the odometer resistor which goes out on these cars and the rear door window rollers which break. It retains the original Delco AM/FMCD stereo, which sounds decent even compared to some of today’s audio tech. Of course, everything was included with the SS such as A/C, power windows and locks, and cruise control, coin holder in the console and it all works like it should. In back, there’s a giant trunk carrying the original full-size spare, which I don’t think has ever been on the ground. The engine is GM’s indestructible 5.7 liter LT1 V8, which makes 260 horsepower in the Impala. I had the transmission replaced in Dec 09 at about 100,000 miles. It’s the 4L60E 4-speed automatic. It’s the same power train that was used in the police Caprice interceptors. The Impala SS is a rare machine, not just terms of production, but in that it is a car that simultaneously created and ended a niche market, yet it remains popular years later. As the last rear-wheel-drive, body on frame sedan built by GM, it does hold a place of distinction. But add in a Corvette-sourced LT1 under the hood, an athletic suspension, and that distinctive monochromatic paint job and you have a slam-dunk of a collector car that will always sell for a premium price for years after it went out of production. Seems like when they got everything right, they quit making them. The car is located just south of Wichita, KS. I have it listed locally and reserve the right to end the auction early. Payment must be COD and any shipping will be up to you. |

Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
Chevy reveals new IndyCar aero package
Tue, Feb 17 2015The IndyCar Series is not one that demands its participating teams and automakers to design their own chassis as they do in Formula One, but for this season, the organizers have opened it up to allow for custom aero packages. What you're looking at here is the new look of the chassis to be fielded by teams running under Chevy power. Based on the Dallara DW12 chassis – introduced three years ago and named after the late Dan Wheldon – Chevy's new package is designed for road courses and short ovals, with the speedway configuration to be revealed later. The kit features new wings front and rear and more sculpted side pods. It's also got new wedges at the back to envelop the otherwise open wheels that are a hallmark of Indy racing, a more streamlined engine cover and bigger rear bumper pods. The new package will debut at the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg that will kick off this year's championship in Florida on March 29, followed by the road-course grands prix in Louisiana, Long Beach, Alabama and Indianapolis before the new package needs to be ready for the Indy 500 late in May. Half of the teams on the starting grid this season will be running under Chevy power and are expected to use this new aero kit, with the remaining Honda teams slated to run a different package of their own. Chevrolet Debuts All-New 2015 IndyCar Aero Package Chevy-developed bodywork delivers improved aerodynamics 2015-02-17 INDIANAPOLIS – Chevrolet-powered racecars in the 2015 Verizon IndyCar Series will feature Chevrolet-developed aero packages. Chevrolet introduced the road course/short oval body design today at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It is distinguished from the previous racecar with new front wing elements, sculpted side pods and a new rear wing. A speedway configuration for the aero kit, designed for high-speed ovals, will be introduced ahead of its competitive debut at Indianapolis in May. "This is an important milestone in Chevrolet's involvement in IndyCar racing," said Jim Campbell, General Motors U.S. vice president of Performance Vehicles and Motorsports. "We focused on developing an aerodynamic package that delivers an balanced combination of downforce and drag, along with integrated engine performance. It's a total performance package." The new Chevy road course aero configuration delivers greater aerodynamic performance than the previous design.
