looks like a decent car, but if i were in the market for a full size car, well equipped for about $40k, i think it would be tough to beat the Passat TDi...lots of space, much better fuel economy, similar in price and better resale...i'm not saying the Impala isn't good, but i don't really see why you would pick it over the Passat TDi (as an example)...this Impala is $40,745 and a fully loaded Passat TDi is $37,895...as good as the new Impala is, you'd have to be a pretty big fan of GM to shell out an EXTRA $2850 for it over the Passat TDi.
