So I’ve decided what I am going to go for. A fully loaded Chevy Impala Premiere. What do you guys think of the car? I’ll be negotiating today and asking what you think of the deal before I sign.
I just rented an Impala on a business trip. Can’t remember the trim level but it had leatherette.
Didn’t like it. Bad visibility out the back and sides. didn’t like the engine (don’t know which model, but it got really tinney when revving up and would shut down at stop lights… with a shudder). and the radio display screen seemed poorly layed out.
I test drove 2017 Malibu at my work and found it really good. I think the reason was it was fully upgraded with 2.0t engine so drove pretty nice. Was really tempted to get one!!
Bad residuals have an upside, for example, the Ford Fusion Hybrid, has a terrible residual and is expensive to lease. Said differently, there are a lot of inexpensive three year old ones available on cars.com loaded with the features.
