T H E I M P A L A S S only from genuine chevrolet
Headlines declared it would carry you "From 0 to 60 in 7.4 seconds. With four sets of clubs in the trunk." Chevrolet literature noted that you could have it "In any color, as long as it is black." Ads proclaimed "Lord Vader, your car is ready." Never has truth in advertising been more true than these clips from media involving the 1994-1996 Impala SS.

Featuring a 260 HP Corvette-derived LT1 V8, this bohemoth was capable of top speeds second only to the Corvette and Viper, among domestic models. It outpaced the Ford Mustang and Probe, the Pontiac Firebird, and even its own brother, the fabled Camaro.
But Chevy wasn't content to settle for just a 140+ MPH top speed. They added police package suspension, brakes, anti-roll bars, and a set of four huge BF Goodrich Comp T/A's for added grip. They stripped it of nearly all badging, added a few 5-spoke aluminium wheels and spoiler and called it good. For the exterior.
Inside the black, Vader-esque skin, Chevrolet installed premium leather seats with embroidered logos on the headrests. They used a Bose stereo and the best darn equipment they could muster.
Not only is the finished project a sleek, stealthy cruiser that begs for a race, but it is the fastest car on the planet with four doors and room for four sets of clubs in the trunk. Boy will it get you to your tee time.... View the Impala Montage video. It is a QT .MOV flick that is less than 10 seconds long. It is a 446K download, available here.
