@daoldschoolraplova96 it wasn't built to be a 400+ Hp car. It for comfort and smoothness in how the car drives. I also think they should have kept the LTZ interior as to not have people like you think of it as a really fast sports car from the look. Don't be mistaken in thinking its not a fast car either, it will keep up with just about every car you see on a daily drive. This car is also used as a police car cuz of it good MPG for being a V8 and it's power
@jonjezzle88 Take some actual time reading my comments like the one above, it shouldve been obvious enough for you to realize that I'm aware of the 2012 Changes. Which had its share of mechanical recalls from launch, still riding on an antiquated platform from the early 90's, & still has a lousy interior. So what if it has better MPG's, has the newer DOHC engine & gearbox, nobody will know if you're driving a 2006 or a 2012. Better off getting a new Malibu which blows the current Impala away

Dude stop being a douche, this is a nice car and your treating it like shit slamming stuff around and holding WOT against the rev limiter. Then revving it and shutting it off right after. Dick.
I got a black 06 impala ss fully loaded and i love it. Kill mustangs all the time and look good doin it. Just could use bigger rotors and upgraded brake components cause its a big fast car.
who cares if its only got a four speed trans there strong, theres a bunch of gtps with the same trans on here with 400+ hp to them and modded trannies with 500-800hp , and as for the engine its all aluminum its probebly lighter than the 3800 thats all cast iron. In my eyes its a damn good platform to have some fun with and i want one : ]........
I'm sorry but this thing is ridiculous, sure its got a big V8 under the hood but its output is sad and Im sure it makes it very nose heavy with a lot of torque steer expected lol Give me a Taurus SHO anyday over this junk. I don't need no gas guzzling V8 especially with gas at $3.50 a gallon LOL
@moparmaniac21 As a 2006 model it came out in late 2005. 6 years since this car last received any exterior & interior tweaks. Aging platform that dates to the 90's, terrible interior, Antiquated V6 engines & transmission up until the last yr where GM gave it the DOHC 3.6L & 6 speed auto which is a huge welcome, but nothing else in terms of improving the interior & refreshing the exterior. Impala nameplate is deserves being placed onto something modern & worthwhile, not a face-lifted Lumina.
@Intechdude300 Ok I catch your drift, I was not aware about the platform. I do agree that the new Impala is slightly boring, but these SS's are pretty badass for what they are. A 4-speed isnt too bad, for being a "daily driver hot rod". Apologies for calling you an idiot on that one.
@moparmaniac21 Dont worry I'm used to it so it doesnt get to me lol. I just wish to see GM get off their ass & do something great for Impala nameplate as they are in shape of doing so.
@xoquixxoqafxo lol yea v8's suck gas but this also shuts down 4 out of 8 cylinders when in crusing speeds which cuts down on gas mileage i have a 01 monte carlo with 3.4 v6 and my impala ss gets getter gas millage so how is it ridiculous? jus a point to put out im not sayin ur wrong everyone has their right of opinion. lol i love it so far :)
@xoquixxoqafxo i have a couple of people with this car and they no problem with them at all,you got to remember its a family car with some power and the gas on this car isnt bad considering the size of the car,not to mention the trunk space this car has
I've done a few, just narrow it down by searching in my channel. I've got a Lamborghini startup coming, Ferrari F430 quick Tour, An Acura TL Type-S Quick Tour, & a Mini Cooper Countryman Quick Tour which I need to get cracking with editing them
I know who he is but I'm not trying to be like him. In my case, cars are at the auction & filming is prohibited. I'm watching after myself half the time so it is difficult to perfect things. Kyle is a bit more free when showcasing a car tho he is a bit tied by not expressing personal opinions or critiquing
I've been interested in this car for a while, but I wonder how it gets along with such a powerful V8 sending all of the power to the front. Seems ridiculous, but I still want one.
Of course they de-tuned it for this application. Just Like the 95-2002 Lincoln Continental with a Detuned Cobra V8 doing 275 HP FWD when it normally can do 320 HP. And 400++ with mods
