Japan Used Chevrolet Impala for Sale

The Chevrolet Impala is a mini Convertible made by the Chevrolet Division of General Motors Company. The Chevrolet Impala is a full-size car built by Chevrolet for model years 1958 to 1985, 1994 to 1996, and since 2000 onwards. The Impala is not only one of Chevrolet's most historic vehicles, but one of America's, as well. For decades, it set the standard in comfort and value, and was even considered to stem the American muscle car. The Impala name was first used for the full-sized 1956 General Motors Motorama show car that bore Corvette-like design cues, especially the grille. Painted emerald green metallic, with a white interior, the Impala concept car featured hardtop styling.

First Generation (1958): Chevrolet had been in existence 46 years when the legendary Impala was majestically assembled for the first time back in 1957 for the 1958 model year. The 1958 Chevrolet models were longer, lower, and wider than its predecessors. The 1958 model year was the first with dual headlamps. The tailfins of the 1957 were replaced by deeply sculptured rear fenders. 

Second Generation (1959–1960): In 1959, the Impala broke away from the Bel Air and became it's own standing model with a redesign so radical, it's still one of the most distinct-looking vehicles in American vehicle history. The Impala became a separate series, adding a four-door hardtop and four-door sedan, to the two-door Sport Coupe and convertible. Sport Coupes featured a shortened roof line and wrap-over back window

Third Generation (1961–1964): The 1961 model year is one of the most important and brand-defining years for Chevrolet, and for the auto industry as a whole. It was the year that Chevy introduced the Super Sport, or SS, the 409 engine, and consequently the first true American muscle car. The Impala also gained the top trim station wagon body design, in place of the Chevrolet Nomad model. 

Fourth Generation (1965–1970): Redesigned in 1965, the Impala set an all-time industry annual sales record of more than 1 million units in the United States. The Impala designers had ants in their pants, 1965 was another year for a full revamp. The divot in the front grille was stretched to the headlights, the actual lights have a more dominant enclosure, the rear once again has a quarter panel bubble, the hood has a pop-up latch and a windsplit, and it has a tempered rear plate glass window.

Fifth Generation (1971–1976): The fifth-gen began in 1971 and didn't change again until 1976. Already a car known for its massive room and comfort, the 1971 Impala was the biggest Chevy ever made at that point and continued to be the best-selling car in the chamber. Chevrolets featured a larger, shock-absorbing front bumper due to new federal mandates which required 5-mile-per-hour (8.0 km/h) impact protection. 

Sixth Generation (1977–1985): The long and low characteristics that the Impala had become known no longer held true once the sixth generation rolled around. The body was shorter, narrower, and taller, still allowing for a decent amount of interior space. Even with its trimmer exterior dimensions, the new Impala featured increased headroom, rear-seat legroom and trunk space.

Seventh Generation (1994–1996): The 1994 model debuted with a 260-horsepower 5.7-liter V8 LT1 engine, but the public let out a collective moan when it found out it was only coupled with a four-speed automatic trans with the gear shifter on the steering column. The Impala SS received body-colored trim, a unique single-bar grille with no hood ornament, and a rear deck spoiler.

Eighth Generation (2000–2005): The Impala name was revived for the 2000 model year as the Hi-Mid program to rename the Lumina as the Chevy Impala. The LS came factory-equipped with cloth bucket seats upgradeable to leather with center console and floor shift, color-keyed "Impala" door scripts and trunk badge, anti-lock brakes, traction control system, keyless remote entry, integrated foglamps, aluminum wheels upgradeable to alloy wheels.

Ninth Generation (2006–2016): The ninth generation Impala was 200.4 in (5,090 mm) long, 58.7 in (1,491 mm) high, and 72.9 in (1,852 mm) wide with a drag coefficient of 0.33.  The interior came equipped with a 4.2-inch color display featuring Chevrolet MyLink (LT and LTZ trims), HD Radio (all trims) and Pandora Radio (LT and LTZ trims), Active noise cancellation for all 4-cylinder options, while new safety features included 10 Standard Airbags combined.
