  • why limit to 107 and have a 140 mph speedo?

  • damn 60mph in 1st gear, wow

  • hey.. just as long as the ride is smooth

  • never does it shift into second gear at 60 mph

  • i got a 2011 impala ls....it tops out at 112

  • I miss my 97 Lumina....it topped at 114 but only (not sure if only but...) because I ran out of (safe) Interstate...no stupid limited to xxxx

  • Comment removed

  • these gears are way to big, if they dropped the 6 speed like the aura xr it would be much better

  • please tell us when you put your foot on the floor that thing is slow as fuck XD

  • Look how it says limited to 107 mph on the dash. F##^@ chevy!

  • @1990subie If 107 mph is not fast enought for you, that's what the Impala SS is for. I think the top speed is 150 mph.

  • @Joseph9536 SS has no limiter.

  • @1990subie dumbass u sayin fuck chevy.....its not chevy.....its tha government

  • Comment removed

  • @FutureMarine246 wat does ford not takin a bailout have to do with the govenor chip?

  • @BigBossaNova im lookin at my comment and I have to idea what i said that lol.

  • This is a top speed run, not a 0-60.

  • @G3TLOOSHemi Btw the manual can do even faster low 7sec but it can probally do it in like 6.9 sec cause its a 6mt and lighter

  • @G3TLOOSHemi aND THE 2.5 CAN DO UNDER 8 SEC

  • @G3TLOOSHemi Not to say the altima weighs less and doesnt have 170hp it has 175hp not to mention the altima can over 107mph this is a video of my proof look on occckid123 page this 2.5 altima is doing 120mph stock. KILLED!!

  • nice i got a undercover cop in my town that has a 3.5L im pretty sure and if it is limited to 107mph... lets just say easy to outrun the mothafucka :)

  • Delimeter stops it at 115mph.

  • the fastest i ever hit was 105mph or 170km in my 06 ls but it never showed any limited to that speed i just let off the gas after 170km cause the highway was ending to stop lights and plus the tires i have are balled on the sides low psi but now im at 36psi, 44psi max on the tires

  • the second gear hits 100 miles wtf this transmision is to big or itneeds a six speed this makes the car feels like lazy

  • @kompleti my mom has one it is kind of lazy lol u could be going 45 mph and its basicly idling

  • my impala lt 3.5 does 0 to 60 in 7.2 sec also on a flat surface

  • @90Mrknowitall bull shit

  • @judbb89 7.2 on a good day(@ 30 degrees F) but to be honest with my AC off which i hardly run anyway i get from 0 to 60 in 7.4-7.6 sec BTW the reason because is were i live its BELOW SEA LEVEL and all runs i made are NOT (DOWNHILL)

  • @90Mrknowitall I look at your video the fastest time I have for your 0-60 is 7.9 sec. Not fast for a v6. Even the altima,sonata can do that and they are i-4's.

  • @TheNissanbest yeah but those are all cheap shitty cars. this is an american tank dude. it wont be fast but you can wipe out in this thing and walk away. not the same case in a sonata.

  • @adammdamann cheap shitty? Altima last long than American shit dude get real or find yourself. This thing is shit has a prehistoric transmission,3.5 only has 211hp and nissan's has 250-306hp. Only can go 107 which a small versa with a 1.6 can do 118mph with only 107hp. I have seen more chevys pulled over than Nissan or toyota. I think the 2.7 engine thats in charger a lil bit faster than this with 178hp. I dont think that chevy can compare with Nissan.

  • @adammdamann Chevys 5.3liters thats in the impala makes 303hp but Nissans 3.7 makes 350hp. Its the fact Chevy has to use alot of liters to make more hp. Yes they have some good cars but still. If you have car with less liter that N/A and stillmakes 30hp or more on you thats a shame. Impalas 3.9 vs 2011 maxima 3.5. 3.9 liter has 240hp nissan 3.5 has 290hp. 50hp more with .4liters less. Even the quest makes more now with a de-tuned VQ35DE engine. NO COMPETITION!!

  • @TheNissanbest for 2011 america has leveled the playing field though. 

  • @adammdamann Yeah with a new 3.6 engine. Nissans 3.5 still has the same horsepower with Dodges 3.6liter. Can americans make a 3.7 with 350hp,thats N/A? Hmmmm those 3.6's cant even get in the low 14s in the 1/4 like the altima coupe 3.5sr can do like 13.8. The sedan does like 14.2 ive seen 14.0s in a stock 3.5. Btw the chysler 200 is no faster than an 2011 Altima 3.5sr. 200 does 14.8@97mph Altima 14.7@100mph with cvt with less horepower. Dude a 2011 sentra se-r spec-v can do 14.9 stock!!!

  • @adammdamann Btw The 2.5 v6 thats in the G25 has more hp than the 2011 impala with a whole liter less. Toyota smashes chevy,Nissan does,and Honda. The engine that those 3 manufactures are making are killing these cars today.. hondas are getting better,Nissan is,and toyota is trying to fight off all those recalls. Btw the engine thats in the G25 is made by Nissan..

  • @TheNissanbest okay but even so, the americans are still getting the same gas mileage, which seems to be the concern in todays society in cars. not horsepower.

  • @adammdamann Hmm ok. But uhh The altima 3.5 gets like 27-28mpg and it performs great. And the reason yall getting good mpgs cause of thee long gears in the videoand 6sp autos. But hey My moms altima get 32mpg and it has 175hp and it goes 125mph,has leather seats,navi,sunroof,bose system,spoiler,signal lights on mirror. Good package huh? But yeah Nissans get good mpg to.

  • @TheNissanbest ya but nissan motors are cammed, high revving engines. most domestic engines red line at, 7? while nissans are cammed as hell and rev really high. most people buy those datsuns so they can get an semi luxury car for a good price. while us poor folk buy our chevys are fords and get the same stuff, for a relatively lower price. but still though no chevy or ford compares to a infinit. period.

  • @adammdamann Ford and chevy cant make engine like Nissans. Fords v6s are revving higher than ever but there 3.7 cant compete with nissan tunning but if the 370z came in v8 no car in its class would keep up. But then again you said nissan is cheap and shitty but you said they ford nd chevy cant compete. hmmmm...... Ford is getting better (cars)...

  • @TheNissanbest whats nissans 3.8? rev to in the g37? like 7700? the 3.7 redlines at 7. if you cam the 3.7 ford the way the nissans are, youll get the same performance out of them. all have variable valve timing. idk if the nissans have vct though. correct me if im wrong.

  • @adammdamann Nissans 3.8 turbo revs to 7krpm the 3.7 revs to 7.5krpm. The 3.7 nissan has vvel.

  • @TheNissanbest and besides that america isnt designing their engines to be the most powerful thing out there. so far all youve pointed out is that nissan uses highly cammed engines to put out alot of power. nissan has more power, but for a whole lot more money.

  • @adammdamann Actually I engine doesnt give a price for a car. So if a car has more options its going to be more money.

  • @TheNissanbest oh well im done arguing about it

  • @adammdamann I wasnt arguing im jus telling you but whatever

  • @TheNissanbest its all good dude. its nice to see somebody on here that doesnt come back with a simple fuck you or a stupid statement with no evidence.

  • @adammdamann Yeah.. I really dont like to argue on Youtube but its nice to meet nice people on youtube.

  • @adammdamann I really dont like to argue on Youtube but its nice to meet nice people on youtube.

  • @adammdamann I really dont like to argue on Youtube but its nice to meet nice people. I was really expecting you to just start cussing but you stayed cool..

  • I try the same car ,at enterprise car locations ,and it was barely 9sec 0-60 mph ,loll this car was not stock or go downhill ,its easy to get to 60 in 5 sec if i go downhill with my 1999 maxima ,stop dreaming please

  • I have a 2008 Impala 3.5L V6 and it switches to 2nd gear at 50mph and 3rd gear at 90mph.

  • i stopwatched that at 7.12 seconds not bad for a big car and not a big motor....idk exactly wat the gearing in ours is ....its a 2006 ls but i know it shifts into 4th...then hits the top speed thing right after u do ...so 100+ i think i may have gotten 55 out of first gear...tapping like 6100

  • That's exactly how my aunts shifted.

  • Awada85, I have a 2004 3.4 impala and if I floor it at D it will shift to 2nd gear at 45mph but, if I put it in 1st gear and floor it, it will shift to 2nd gear at 50mph. The 2nd gear could reach about 90mph floored before it shifts to 3rd gear. With the overdrive, at 78mph I get 30 miles per gallon. It is not impossible for 3.5 because they have higher rev limit than the older 3.4.

  • That thing has some long gears. Must have a broad torque curve to make use of it. Not bad.

  • he has it in kilometers theres no way it could hit 60 in first gear, ESPACIALLY IS A 4 SPEED!!!

  • @awada85 Read the dash, it says MPH. Since when did a M look like a K? Revving a bit past 6000 RPM with a 2.92 first gear and 2.86 final drive; do the math... Of course it can, and it obviously did.

  • well ya u got that rite

  • If that's the case, then apparently it takes 22 seconds for this car to get to 60 MPH (100kph). Plus, a 4-speed would have longer gears. more gears (usually) means lower speed differences between gears.

  • @awada85 unless he hack the car to make himself look cool on youtube I call bull, the dash read's MPH , and Mi on the odometer and you can clearly see he's in D for overdrive

  • @iGaRaai90 Automatics read that they are in overdrive when that is the highest gear selected. why would someone fake a 6-7 sec 0-60?

  • @awada85

    It's because it's a 4 speed that it reaches 60 in first gear.

    Less gears = taller gears

    Have a Buick Century, it shifts into 2nd at about 80-85 km/h

    They do taller gears for better mileage (much lower cruising RPM on highway), but sacrifice acceleration. If this was say a 6 speed, you'd be shifting at a much lower speed (different gear ratio). People really know about cars these days...

  • Dude you r in overdrive no wonder it was so slow shift in to 3 thats regular drive u only use overdrive if your traveling on the highway man.

  • @dtrip09 Overdrive has nothing to do with 1-3 gear shifts. Overdrive (torque converter lockup) won't engage at WOT in 1-3 gear. It has NO effect on performance or speed. The torque converter still locks up in 3 under normal driving conditions having it in 3 instead of D only keeps it from 4th gear. This is not 1985 buick where there is Drive and Overdrive.

  • I think it will stay out of 4th gear if you accelerate from 0. But if you don't want overdrive when your passing on the highway you can put it 3rd to save downshift time.

  • @BimmerM5e39 Putting it in 3rd doesn't prevent overdrive. 4th gear is not overdrive. Torque converter lock up is overdrive (which isn't a gear). It still locks up in 3rd gear as well. There is no timed saved whether you shift into 3rd then floor it or just floor it from D....the torque converter will still have to unlock.

  • ..and this is why the 3.5 Impala isn't worth $25.000 more like $12.500 I too, was disapointed when i reached the vehicle top speed. Should have been at least 120mph for the base model :)

  • 6.5 seconds. Not bad for a little car using only one gear.

  • wow its a 3 speed auto your gonna hit 60 in first gear with it on the floor

  • @copedipinredneck 4 speed.  It just has really tall gears.

  • fast for a 3.5 but not impossible MotorWeek ran 8.3 0-60 in a 3.5. the 2.86 gears explain the high shift points. Great cars!!

  • Yep thats a stock 3.5 219 hp. wow 100 in 2nd gear. I mean, who needs the 3.9?

  • they should have started with thisn not the horrible 3.4 that its baiced from

  • @yellowcow13 the 9th gen impala's never had the first 3.5 that was based on the 3400. That 3.5 ended production in 2005 and never made it to the new impala's. The 3.5 in this impala is based on the 3.9 both having variable cam timing where the first gen 3.5 does not.

  • 7.6 to 60 and 20.4 to 100, yea 60 in first gear thats good for one gear. Must have some mods?

  • no, actually, he was just going down hill. On a flat surface, he would have shifted at 55mph. I have one with a resonator delete and a flowmaster super 44 and it only shifts at 60 if ur going downhill...mine actually at 65mph, and shifts to 3rd at 105mph

  • I have a 3.4 2004 impala and I've done some simple mods to it and it could do 0-60 in 7.5 sec. It shifts to 2nd gear at 47mph.

  • wow 60 mph in 1st gear, You've done some work, good job

  • What my will go that fast!

  • wow... ive got the exact same car and my 0-60 is like, over 9 sec. what did u do to it?

  • WTF? My 3,5 doesnt go nearly as fast.. Downhill? Mods?

  • I would punch the dash...

    lol
