Vehicle Description
This 1995 Chevrolet Impala SS is one car that I can guarantee will
be gone in very short order. If you're even remotely interested in
it, don't even finish reading, call now, because these cars never,
ever stick around for more than a few days. Even more than 20 years
after they were built, these are A-list commodities with a long
list of eager new owners. I guarantee this 11,611-mile car will not
last long.
There's no need to cover the legend of the Impala SS here, so I'm
just going to get right to it. This is a 1-owner car and is almost
completely stock. It also wears its factory black paint, which is
arguably the most desirable of all Impala SS colors and certainly
the one that everyone thinks of when they imagine an Impala SS.
It's just sinister. After 22 years this one is showing some very
minor signs of use, but thanks to careful ownership and some
long-term storage, it's quite presentable, especially for a car
designed to go this fast. The car has obviously never been hit or
rusty, and all the special Impala SS-only components are in place,
from the grille to the emblems on the C-pillars. The trick Impala
SS emblems on the quarters, which were color-matched to the body
for a cool effect, perfectly sum up the subtle look of this car.
Even the headlights are bright and clear and the taillights show no
signs of UV damage or fading, further indications that this car has
been treated right.
Chevy's gray leather interior was a bit more dressed up than the
usual Caprice fare and the stuff wears like iron. The driver's seat
shows almost no evidence of use and there's not even any wear on
the driver's armrest where someone's elbow might rest; the interior
is remarkably clean and unused. Every single option Chevy offered
was standard on the Impala, including A/C (ice cold, by the way),
power windows, locks, mirrors and seats, cruise control, and a tilt
column with a leather-wrapped wheel. There's room for five in there
and nobody will complain about the accommodations. A center console
houses the shifter for the 4-speed automatic overdrive
transmission, as well as a pair of cup holders big enough to handle
a pony keg. Heck, this car is so stock that even the original
factory radio still lives in the dash, and quite honestly, it
sounds great. The cavernous trunk looks like new and still carries
its original space-saver spare, tire cover, and cargo net.
GM's 350 cubic inch LT1 V8 powered the Impala SS, and while it
wasn't as strong as the Corvette version from which it was derived,
it gives this big 4-door the moves of a genuine muscle car. It's
also as reliable as a New York City taxi cab and as
modification-friendly as Joan Rivers. Fortunately, this one is
almost completely stock save for a K&N air cleaner and a
performance flash on the ECM, although it's still happy to run on
pump gas. Never abused or raced, it runs and drives beautifully and
still feels exciting after all these years. It starts easily, the
transmission shifts properly, and it hammers down the road with the
authority that only a big, bad sedan can deliver. The chassis is
super clean, the exhaust is stock, and factory alloys look
fantastic and wear correct 255/50/17 BFGoodrich T/A radials.
Late-model collectables are rare, but the fact that the Impala SS
is still trading hands aggressively means that there's a strong
following for these cars. Complete with the original window
sticker, manuals, build sheet, and delivery info, this is the one
to own. Call today!
