Click to enlarge. 2006 Chevrolet Impala SS With some all-new opponents on the field, the 2006 Chevrolet Impala is going to have a hard go of it, despite an updated design and new engines. The 2006 model may be fresh compared to the 2005 Impala, but it's a little stale when matched up to the competition. The uninspired, vague styling will likely maintain the V6-powered Impala's position as a rental fleet favorite, but the muscular Impala SS might find an audience in those few who dislike the Chrysler 300C and would prefer their V8 to spin the front wheels.

About Thom Blackett
Thom Blackett joined Autobytel in 2000 as a Research Analyst with the company's data division, Automotive Information Center (AIC). After four years of pouring through press kits searching for minute details, Thom jumped to Autobytel's editorial team. Born and raised in the state of Maine (no, it's not part of Canada and yes, the proper pronunciation of lobster is "lobstah"), Thom has always been a car nut, using his grandmother's potholders as steering wheels to "drive" around the house as a youngster. His biggest sorrow is never getting to know his grandfather's 1959 Caddy, or the '62 Impala Convertible and '69 Chevy Malibu that his parents once owned. As Autobytel's Road Test Editor, Thom strives to write articles that serve to inform as well as entertain. A proud member of the Motor Press Guild, Thom holds a bachelor's degree from the University of Maine. Comments may be emailed to thomb@autobytel.com.
