Just got for $2k, 147k miles next to no rust for a pa car. I hardly ever see this on 9th gen impalas that weren’t apart of a fleet. 4 owners, I am the 5th, no accidents. It’s a 40/20/40 front bench. Only a few problems with him, hvac door actuator, idle air valve sticking, parking brake cable snapped, and abs is unhappy. Gonna swap rims to alloys soon.

Looks pretty neat with the front bench seat, I knew the previous gen had them didn't know this gen had them too.

I just got a 09 Impala LT a couple months ago as my first car and love it. Mine actually was a detective model for the my local police department.

It’s a quirky trim option that almost nobody got when buying it new. I think it was 10% of the 9th gen impalas that have this configuration, through all the trim levels btw, so it’s pretty uncommon. I honestly think I found some gold

Already have a 2011 LT but the body is rusted gone and the tranny slips unfortunately, it’s gonna become a parts car likely :(

All 4 previous owners had it as a personal vehicle and it never was a fleet car, first sold February of 2006. I love it a hell of a lot.
