I have the day off today, so I was watching The Price is Right.
This Impala LS appeared at the end of a NASCAR-themed showcase presentation. Preceding the Impala were a Nintendo Wii racing game, a Craftsman tool chest and set, and a trip to the Brickyard 400 in Indianapolis.
Not that I wouldn’t have minded winning all of that. But an SS would have made more sense, IHMO.
MichaelMichael,
For reasons I can’t fully explain, I often think of the SS when I watch “The Price Is Right.”

P.S. I’m Jewish so I can say that.

You know, 4:3 format stretched to 16:9 actually makes that a sexy looking car.
Yeah it actually does kind of look more like you would expect an “Impala” to look like.
Holy Panel Gaps Batman!
2009 is the last year for the SS, and there are probably very few, if any, still on dealer lots. No point promoting a car you can’t get.
“You know, 4:3 format stretched to 16:9 actually makes that a sexy looking car.”
Yeah, but the girl looks fugly!
Maybe it’s all the funny looking dollar signs?
The SS badging on Chevies always makes me think of that too. I must watch the History Channel too much.

She’ll look better if she turns sideways.
The car – not so much.

That’s funny, I always think of TTs.

That’s why I want her to turn sideways!~
A base Impala, screw that. They should have given away a Charger RT or SRT. That is more fitting with the NASCARa theme.
I can see rhat this is a 2009 model Impala. And that we have never painted an Impala in that colour.
That poor bastard is going to have to pay income taxes on the MSRP!
The price after how many rebates?

You mean there’s actual history on HC in between ice road trucking, lumbering, testing old military gear, and 23 minutes of commercials every hour? No-friggin’-way!

And the “Learning” Channel – tales of woe about 800-pound people getting bariatric surgery…That’ll LEARN ya.
God what a rental fleet queen…
I have noticed.. the vehicles that any TV show (The Price Is Right) gets.. is any base / basic model, large / 5 pass domestic automaker’s garbage. A lineup of vehicles so poor / generic / genetics that people really don’t follow.
And..
The SS Impala that got canned, really isn’t much different from this queen, at all in its last model year. I think the tires were a bit bigger.. but that was it. I’ve seen silver / primer color versions of these things.. with their demographic driver.. and its hideous.
There really isn’t any LOVE for a SS Impala.
SO basically..
The car, its color, its trim, the TV show that its on, really caters to its buyer.
Which… is actually pretty sad.
Then again.. is the whole discussion about Malibu v Impala.
That poor bastard is going to have to pay income taxes on the MSRP!
Which is probably more than if he just went and bought one!!
