Replying to: ryster (May 16, 2009 8:44 pm) Ryan,   I'm glad I traded to a 2009 when I did. I picked up a 2LT with 3.9, leather, and Red Jewel Tintcoat. Without you saying it, I'm assuming the Red Jewel Tintcoat was one of the colors dropped; that and the leather were the true selling features for my trading--although the 3.9 certainly was a contributing factor. I like the 17 inch wheels--sets it off nicely. My 2006 was great--I had no significant problems. ISS was only thing that required other-than-normal service. Fuel consumption was great--I could pull 32+ mpg without working at it. Fabric seats were beginning to show some polyester pilling, but I was very pleased with the car and its quality--obviously or I wouldn't be driving another.

Replying to: ryster (May 16, 2009 8:44 pm) Yeah I love my 2008 Silver LTZ.   I don't really miss the SS as I feel its the same car as I have all the same options on this car with the exception of 6 disc CD changer, but now I have zune player. I di dread however that they kill off the impala and come back with the Caprice. Not sure I like that idea as I love my Impalas but that is few yrs away. So well see what happens only time will tell.

Replying to: cnw (May 18, 2009 5:19 pm) Red Jewel Tintcoat stays for 2010 and is available on LT and LTZ models.   The colors dropped for 2010 are: White exterior color Dark Silver Metallic exterior color Mocha Bronze Metallic exterior color Slate Metallic exterior color   The colors added are: Summit White exterior color Cyber Gray Metallic exterior color Aqua Blue Metallic exterior color   The LT is still available with the Luxury Edition Package (leather, Bose with 8 speakers, rear spoiler, heated seats, etc.), however there are no more 3.9L LT models. The 17" wheels are gone, too.   My '06 2LT has been a fair car. It has 41,000 miles on it, and has needed the ISS replaced, water pump replaced, high pressure power steering hose replaced, and has several squeaks/rattles/groans.   I have thought about trying to find an '09 SS leftover, but not sure I want another Impala based on my experience with my '06.

Replying to: ryster (May 19, 2009 3:56 pm) Thanks for the feedback.I had few issues with my '06 2LT, but I only had 27000 miles on it. I haven't felt any of the ISS issues on my '09; I'm not confident that they re-engineered the shaft to eliminate the problem so it's probably just a matter of time. It was replaced on my'06 and on my wife's '07 Grand Prix. Other than that, both cars have been excellent.
#14 of 16 06 Impala, dead in its tracks! by hemac May 27, 2009 (6:05 pm)
Has anyone experienced this; Today went to start the 06, it cranked as usual, hit the brake and grabbed the shift lever.......nothing. The release button is solid, wont move, the shift stuck in park . This is a 3LT with 3.9 V6, Auto Trans. Mileage just out of warranty   Can't find anything in the guide about this. Any one have experience with this? Thanks

Replying to: rvoth (Feb 20, 2009 8:06 am) Its a shame that the effort that was put into projects like the 2010 camaro wasn't put into the impala. The impala has been mentioned more than any other vehicle in songs across many genres alone the impala could save gm from backruptcy. The brand new 2010 Buick LaCrosse is everything the impala should have been from the dynamic body styling to the superluxury interior. Normally I don't like rebadging but in this case the only thing needed is the impala symbol to complete the package.
