2006 Chevrolet Impala 3LT

Pros

Reliable, Fast, Roomy, great MPG sedan at unbeatable price

Cons

Rear wheel drive would be nice.

I took delivery of my new 2006 LT3 Impala in late September as soon as it arrived at my local dealer and have put 26,000 miles on it. Yes I did say 26,000 miles. I travel a lot for my job and usually get a new car every other year(my job pays for it). The only problem I had with the car is one of the day time running lights burned out. Other than that small issue, nothing has gone wrong with it. All of my other cars have had problems but this one has never let me down. Rear wheel drive would be nice but the front wheel drive works fine. I do commute through New York and front wheel drive will probably work well in the snow. The ride is smooth and Chevrolet has built many convenience and saftey features in the car. During the break in period, my gas milage was not so great but after my first oil change I believe I started getting around 31 miles to the gallon (highway miles)even with the upgraded engine on regular fuel. I do have the mid size engine (3.9L)in the car which is quiet and powerful. I would not hessitate to buy another Impala in the future and have ordered a 06 Impala LTZ (luxury edition) for my mother. I have owned about 25 cars of various makes in my lifetime so far and this is my favorite one by far.
