In 1965, if there had never been an Impala SS, Chevrolet would still probably have sold a million Impalas because boring grocery getters make way more sense to 99.9% of the population.
Its fine to think of old muscle cars as cool. But the real legacy lies with the regular versions. Because the overwhelming majority of people who have ever owned an Impala, from any generation, did not own a cool one.
