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. |

Mary Barra reportedly confirms GM's electric pickup truck plans
Tue, Apr 30 2019According to Motor Authority, CEO Mary Barra confirmed General Motors' intentions to build an electric pickup truck this week. Whether or not it would be an all-new vehicle is unknown. The news comes not even a week after Ford announced a $500 million investment in electric-vehicle startup Rivian. First, electric powertrains were integrated into cars. Then came the crossovers and the SUVs. Naturally, then, the next wave will be pickup trucks. Ford is set to produce an electric F-150, Rivian has the R1T, and now General Motors has reportedly confirmed its plans to introduce a competitor into the field. The article says the topic was brought up in a recent investor call as part of a brief overview of the automaker's electrification strategy. That's where the details end, however, as there is no indication of a timeline, what GM brand would carry the truck, or whether it would be an entirely new product or an adaptation of a current model. The latter seems most likely, which points to the Chevrolet Silverado or the GMC Sierra as possibilities. Chevrolet has been GM's electrification leader this decade with the Bolt and Volt, so an electric Silverado would align well with that messaging and branding. However, an electric pickup would likely be a pricier premium product, which could align it better with GMC. Autoblog has reached out to GM for comment and will update this space when we get a response.

Chevy to resume engine-building program for 2015 Corvette Z06
Thu, Jan 8 2015One of Chevrolet's most popular and unique customer features is set to return for 2015, as the company has announced that the Engine Build Experience is back. Interested owners will be able to screw together their engines beginning in March. The $5,000 option (which does not include the cost of travel) will give future owners of the 2015 Corvette Z06 the chance to screw together their car's actual 6.2-liter, supercharged V8. Available on each of the Z06's three trims, the Engine Build Experience includes a day at the Performance Build Center, instruction from an engine assembly tech, photographs of the experience and a personalized engine plaque. Once the build process is completed, the engine will (eventually) be fitted under the hood of the customer's personal Z06. "Chevrolet recognizes the passion customers have for Corvette and the Engine Build Experience offers them a truly unique opportunity for hands-on involvement in the creation of the heart of their new car," Corvette product manager Harlan Charles. "It's important for customers to understand their engine won't be installed the day after they built it. It will flow into the scheduling process for vehicle assembly, which depends on a number of logistical variables." Scroll down for the official announcement of the Z06's Engine Build Experience, available below. Exclusive Corvette Engine Build Experience Returns Program renewed for supercharged LT4 engine at new Bowling Green build center 2015-01-07 BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – Chevrolet announced today it is resuming the exclusive Engine Build Experience for Corvette Z06 customers – the only program of its kind for supercar customers. Starting in March 2015, Corvette Z06 customers will be able to assemble the 650-hp supercharged LT4 engine for their cars at the new Performance Build Center inside the Bowling Green Assembly Plant. "Chevrolet recognizes the passion customers have for Corvette and the Engine Build Experience offers them a truly unique opportunity for hands-on involvement in the creation of the heart of their new car," said Harlan Charles, Corvette product manager. "It's a chance to bond with their new car." The Engine Build Experience is selected with order code PBC and is offered on all Z06 trim levels.
