286 HP1996 Impala SS

I saw a black Impala SS back in 1996 and since that time I could not stop thinking about it. I knew that one day I would have to own an Impala. My dream came true about a few weeks ago.

After a few months I finally managed to scrape enough money together to get my own sporty Impala SS. The color is Dark Green with Gray Metallica all over it and it only has about 69k miles on it. The dealership I bought it from was about 80 miles away but boy was the trip worth it.

The Impala SS has over 200 HP, so I didn’t really need to modify it. The only changes I made to it was a cold air induction upgrade. This allows me to easily over take cars on the free way. One time I ended up overtaking a third generation vette which tried to pull away.

The car is amazing to have, every time I open the door and step in for a drive I get this awesome feeling. The auto body of the Impala is also no joke, it really gets my adrenaline pumping because it packs some serious horsepower.

I can talk endlessly about the amount of pull the Impala SS has. This is a sports car, so it does feature a powerful engine. I can also talk endlessly about the design of the car, the auto body work is amazing. Lastly I can talk endlessly about the ride.

Personally I won’t be investing any time or money fixing this annoying problem for the next few months. The reason why the car squeaks is because it is restricted. This can be solved by getting a different air intake and filter.

You can get a performance increase by K and N for about 150 dollars and this will boost your Impala’s horsepower by 26. Another thing is this is a car, and as all cars do it has it’s own problems. These problems are different for each cars.

Some cars are bad at cooling their engines, while other’s water pumps are bad. A few cars even have defects from the factories. Considering all these and the fact that Automakers try hard to fix these problems, the Impala SS is a great vehicle to own.
