Chevrolet Corvette Stingray C7 Forum - View Single Post - Question about reliability of other Chevys

The V6 engine in the Impala is the same basic LFX V6 in the Camaro with a little variation in tune, redline and horsepower. The Impala is a really nice car - a home run from GM in my opinion. It is a large sedan class vehicle.

The Acura TLX and the Lexus IS (the 250 is discontinued in 2017 but there are other IS models) are really in a different class of vehicle. More of a competitor to the Audi A4 or BMW 3 series. Mid size luxury vehicles - ATS or CTS would be closer competitors.

So it's going to come down to what she really wants. In terms of value, agree that the Impala would be the biggest bang for the buck and I think reliability is good. Malibu is another option and of course there's always Camry or Accord.
