2005 Chevrolet Impala - Frustrating & non-dependable
The only things I like about this vehicle is that there is plenty of space in the car & trunk. I also think the seats are very comfortable. What I don't like about this car is the Security issue that my car, and many others, have. For some reason, the car won't start for 10 minute increments. You have to turn your ignition to the Start position and wait for the Security light to stop flashing. This is always 10 minutes. When it does, most of the time you can then start your car. However, I have had it on many occasions still not start & I have to go through a 2nd or 3rd round. This is extremely ridiculous to me and very, very frustrating. I have been late to important things, work, etc. quite often. I never know when or how often this will happen. I've gone months of it not ever happen... (more)

I've gone months of it not ever happening and I've gone through months of it happening as often as every other time that I start my vehicle. Besides this, my car has ran very well & smoothly with no other problems.
I really honestly don't have any good memories so far of this car. There was a time, recently, when I was stuck waiting on my car to start and I saw this bird attacking a cat over and over. It was the most funny thing! So, that incident made the time I spent waiting on my car to start more enjoyable.

The top positive things about this vehicle is the space, that it is very comfortable and that it hasn't had any other problems besides one huge one (see below). My favorite feature of the car I think is how comfortable the seats are & how spacious it is.

The top, and pretty much only, negative thing about this car is the Security issue that my car, and many Impala's, have. For some reason, the car won't start for 10 minute increments. You have to turn your ignition to the Start position and wait for the Security light to stop flashing. 10 Minutes later when it does, most of the time you can then start your car.

I've gone months of it not ever happening and I've gone through months of it happening as often as every other time that I start my vehicle. Whenever I go somewhere, I mostly leave my car running, unless I'm going to be inside for an hour or more. This then is wasteful of gas. But, I'd rather waste gas then being stuck places. In the summer & winter, it can be extremely rough sitting there in the heat/cold. What is really bad is the dealership has not come up with a lasting solution for this problem. They have done things to fix it temporarily, but can't find a permanent solution. I will always search the internet for reviews before I buy a car from now on! I didn't know what was wrong with my car until I researched it and saw so many other people complaining of the same problem.
2013 Chevrolet Impala - A bold ride
The 2013 Chevrolet Impala is a great car. The car is wide and can hold up to 6 people, which is a must for my family. The leather seats are nice and stylish, which is hard to come by these days. The wood vinyl on the car dashboard adds a sense of elegance and glamour. The stereo is high quality and the sound system works excellently. The car drives so smoothly that it feels like you are floating on a cloud, and when I hit a bump in the road, I can barely feel it. I love the pull down seats in the back that leads to the trunk, because one time I locked my cars in the trunk, and had to crawl through the pull down seats to get to my car keys. This car is excellent and a bold ride.

A fun and memorable story is when we were driving the car home from the dealership. The car was obviously new and still had the new car smell. My kids sat in the back and we put on a CD to listen to on the way home. As, I have said before, the stereo system is amazing, and we blasted music all the way home. That was a lot of fun and very memorable.

The top positive things about this vehicle is the sound system, the stereo, the drive of the vehicle, the space and capacity, the air conditioning, the style of the car, such as the leather seats and wood vinyl dashboard, and the ample trunk space in the back. The car is easy to drive and fun to ride in.

The top negative things about the vehicle is the probably that the steering wheel is large and hard to see over for us girls, and the leather steering wheel heats up in the sun, making me buy steering wheel covers for my car, which are not cheap. The gas mileage sometimes is a little high.

2003 Chevrolet Impala - Big, Sturdy Reliable
This has been a wholly reliable car that has served me well over the years. It isn't stylish or especially fuel efficient but it's a beast I've driven all over the country and never let me down.

I took this car filled to the brim with furniture and moving supplies and drove it through the high mountains to a beach (actually driving on the sand) in a day and it never let me down.

This car is huge for a sedan, I've moved houses in this little boat and piled all assortments of family, friends, supplies, furniture etc. I love that the back seats fold down to allow access into the trunk, it's ideal for easily hauling things or finagling furniture. The seats are very comfortable and the most important thing is that it has been mechanically sound. I've driven this car through all kinds of crazy terrains and it just keeps going.

The worst thing about the car is that it is not at all fuel efficient, the gas mileage is terrible. The big size also makes it difficult to back up, park and navigate into tight spots and it's not the smoothest at navigating highly windy roads. It also sits pretty low so I wish I had a little more clearance. It's not particularly an attractive car either.
