Tell whoever you know on the inside that the designer of the new impala deserves a nice bonus.

I can honestly say that a car hasn't made me this excited since the Camaro.

Easily best in class. Inside and out.

409...my dad didn't have a 409, but one of the cars he talks fondly about is a 1970 Impala in dark blue that he ordered new. It had a 300hp 350.

It's less than a year away. Early Q1 2013 SORP, in dealerships by late Q1.

So they're sticking with the 3.6L V6 in it? No 6.7L V8s?

Also, will that be on a stretched Epsilon platform, or something new? I'm assuming the W-platform is finally being taken out to the woods and shot.

No V8.

It's on the XTS's variant of the EpII platform. W-body is dead and buried once the current Impala (which will transition to a fleet-only model) runs its course.

Got it. Any word on approximate pricing, or any preliminary specs?

I have dimensions and powertrains. No word on pricing, although I definitely expect it to be much more than the current model.
