92LX302 Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) Looks like a nice vehicle. Love the interior.http://www.autoblog.com/2013/03/15/2014-chevrolet-impala-first-drive-review-video/But it's a little detail, but being a mid-level trim this hit everytime I look at it:Can you say..

Hugh Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 If you refer to the box straps for the gas tank, yeah. I do like the interior, yet, of course the Taurus wins for me because I had a current generation model for a bit. I do think this is a reasonably good effort from GM.

92LX302 Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 I was referring to the 80's style exhaust tips haha! Guess I'm too used to see nearly every car with some sort of fancy cut-out in the bumper for them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta get the Impala LTZ for those. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8-X Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Good attempt for a GM product. Personally from a stylistic point of view, it's a drastic improvement compared to the outgoing model. Can't say I'd want one in my driveway, still much prefer the design of the Taurus. But can't say I'd be embarrassed to be seen in one. As for the interior, it too looks drastically improved. Items on the interior that must go though are that dang ugly steering wheel (who the hell okay'd that design) and the dashboard top hat thingy (whatever it's called), that wraps from the doors over the center stack. Otherwise, the front legroom does appear a little cramped with that thick center console and doors, similar to that of the Taurus. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appears that is a custom exhaust setup, and it appear the pipes may have some tips on them unlike the Impala.

RichardJensen Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 OMG GM interior again. GM, the company that is deathly afraid of straight lines and right angles in ALL aspects of interior design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PREMiERdrum Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) The grille insert for the radar-cruise equipped models is goofy, at best. It's like a bowtie wearing a bowtie. Edited March 15, 2013 by PREMiERdrum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papilgee4evaeva Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Wait... THAT'S what that is? Well, it doesn't look like a huge zit. Kudos, I suppose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After months of speculation that this grille was for some sort of advanced, alternative fuel, electric, or hybrid version, it turns out it's the freakin' cruise control.

mustang let back Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 looks like the rest of the junk from chevy.Garbage Motors at its best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmacd27 Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I like the exterior, a big improvement from the last efforts. The interior ruins it for me however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appears that is a custom exhaust setup, and it appear the pipes may have some tips on them unlike the Impala. Look at my Username, I'm more of a... Straight polished tips guy Yeah that set-up is probably Flowmaster's 3'' cat-back. They route the tails under the tank allowing clearance for wider tires. VRS makes a similar set-up but in full stainless, allowing to polish them to get a 03/04 Cobra look! I'll have a set this summer I swear!! The grille insert for the radar-cruise equipped models is goofy, at best. It's like a bowtie wearing a bowtie. Looks like they stole a grille from a Bat-something.
