I had a 08 with a salvage title best car I ever had... Same issues with suspension in front tho

Those transmissions had heavy duty coolers. As did the engine oil and power steering fluid. No issues with reliability.

That's odd. I must have the only good one then. I'm literally just about to send my 07 9C1 to the scrap yard tomorrow. 520k on it. original engine and transmission. The reason why I'm sending it off? Not because of the still fully functional engine and transmission... the rear driver's side fender rotted through to the trunk and my rear strut tower as a result blew out sideways as a result. She had a good run and owes me nothing. I'm not even mad.

Lmfao bro you’ve clearly never driven an agile sports car, something that’s light as a feather or something that’s very fast because late 2000’s impala’s(police editions or civilian versions)are definitely not any of those things 😂

We have 5 of these Impala interceptors in our taxi fleet. They range from 2009-2014. The 2009 one has well over 450k miles, and it's still in service. We haven't had any major issues with them. The oil is changed at every 5,000 miles, and the transmission fluid at every 25,000 miles. They are strong and reliable if you maintain them. Civilian cars will not compete with the durability of police interceptors. You can go ditch hopping in one of these, and it still be fine. Just a $50 junkyard bumper, and you're good to go.

I have a 2013 chevy impala with everything stock with 387089 thousand miles on it never even changed the spark plugs just oil changes and fluid changes and I haven't had any issues knock on wood

Although, you forgot to mention that in 2012 the Whimpalas got the 305hp 3.6L V6 and the six speed auto trans. From what I hear, those were much better drivetrains. I’d still prefer a RWD car, but I wouldn’t mind a snotty 300 hp V6 tho.

I've had one of these before I got the car I have now. I had everything on it the push bar and everything. I like this car because it was a good gas saver

What about the impala with the Ls engine ?

The 3900 put out 240... 233 in later years until 2012 work the release of the 3600DI with 300hp

Crown vics you have to put 4.10 gears in them along with cold air kit and underdrive pulleys and headers. You can a programmer or a tune and it will wake up pretty good you can put 350,000 miles easily on those 4.6 v8

@Ali Depends on how cheap you get it. The horsepower is fun. And it was a damn good upgrade over my old car. I got mine super cheap because it needed work. But they are a fun car. I'd recommend the police Impala over the standard one because it has better horsepower and quite possibly a better transmission. I've heard complaints about the transmissions in the 06 to 11 Impalas. But I never had a problem with the police model. The car also gets decent mileage for a V6.
