Default Sonota Vs. Impala

Well like you guys suggested i test drove a Sonota (V6) and a Chevy Impala the same day.

Pros Sonota: Fast as ****! Nice ride, loved it overall, Shiftronic

Cons: A little Toucy for my taste (Gas Pedel) Interior looked Kinda cheap to me/Boring, Minimam security compared to Impala

Chevy Implala

Pros: Nice Interior, Smooth ride, Quiet, Quick as **** OnStar Remote Start/Engine imobalizer.

Cons: no Shiftronic um Chevy? LOL but many friends say Impala is pretty Reliable compared to other chevys

Parts will be cheaper (American) compared to Forign

Oh ya the 500-600 Dollar Spark Plug change on the Sonota really freaked me out (Can't get to back 2 spark plugs)


They are still both possible, but can someone tell me how reliable the 04-06 Impalas are? What are the repair costs you pay over a year?

Present Benz 380,000 miles so far 1,500.

Default RE: Sonota Vs. Impala

The Sonatas drop in Resale value like a rock, whereas the Chevy will hold value better.
