    Not going to lie GM fell of when they decieded to
    Give us a Chevy SS instead of an Impala SS, GM would have had made a great car to compete against the Charger.
    But instead they decdied to become pussies and give us cars we don't want while also discounting the Camaro
    because there Design team can't somehow design a Camaro that does not have a blind spot issue.
    I like The 6th & 7th gen camaro

    Living in this era of GM was strange. Before the GTO and 5th gen camaro came out, you had Chevy throwing SS on everything. The Monte Carlo SS was a V6 that later got a supercharged option before the V8 model was released. Same as the impala, it was a FWD, 300hp car with a terrible transmission.
    The Impala SS, Bonneville GXP and Grand Prix GXP all shared the same platform for the most part. FWD V8s that could and should have been RWD. I felt that disappointment in this video. We were all feeling the same way around this time. Lol

    My 2014 Caprice 6.0 V8 is the closest thing to a RWD Impala we ever got. Most none car folks think it's an Impala already. My Caprice is a great ride and has a lot of potential. Essentially a slightly detuned and longer wheelbase version of the SS. The SS should've been the real resurrection of the Impala and or next gen Caprice, but even though I like Chevy they seem to have a long-standing rule in place to make 10 awful mistakes for every genius one.

      @@ItsDaJax They fell out of favor back in the day, but the demand for them has kinda come back. The closest thing we have to a Ute today is the Maverick, and Ford has sold, and recalled, unfortunately, tons of them. The Santa Cruz has also done reasonably well. The thing that's probably keeping GM and possibly Ram (a true Rampage can be made out of the old Challenger and put on a frame) from bringing that type of vehicle back is the EPA's stupid regulations on truck sizing and how it ties to emissions. It's the reason why trucks have become so much larger than they used to be and probably part of why Ram never gave us another Dakota or a 1200 despite having three trucks with Fiat that would fit the demand (Strada, Toro, and Titano).

    GM had a opportunity to build the Grand Prix G8 all wheel drive concept car from the 2000 auto show, but refused to build it, after positive feedback from Pontiac fans and enthusiast. It would have been the Widebody before Dodge Charger.

    This was that impala that we supposed to have gotten about 7 years ago, when they came out w/that aggressive Malibu w/the big hood ( the model AFTER the last SS Malibu ) before they made them damn near identical 0:14

    That’s what I’m saying. How many other people have realized that a Honda CR-Z would be the greatest hot hatch ever if it had a v6 with a turbo? They already look sporty and aggressive with a couple body kits.

    Truth is, they did build something like this for the Chinese market back in the mid 2000s.

    I owned a 2014 Impala ltz and I have to admit what a waste of marketing on a vehicle that should have had a V8 with limitless potencial
