    o rly? Toyota 2000GTs go for at least $100K.
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    The fact of the matter is, you will never come to senses with the car market. Toyota is a threat to GM and your scared by it. You know it is. Its not the 70's anymore man.

    Oh and just for the record i believe base models for the camry and impala are quite different in price. The camry is about 3000 less than the impala. With the same features.

    EDIT:
    2007 Impala LS: 21,630

    2007 Toyota Camry CE: 18,470

    Oh the camry gets better MPG too, about 3 more.

    So all the bulls@$% aside, you know nothing about cars. As your post above clearly states.

    A threat to GM ???...no, just a challenge, and one that is being met head to head ;

    The expansion of GM’s four global brands – Chevrolet, HUMMER, Saab and Cadillac – is showing concrete signs of success.

    Global sales of GM’s value brand, Chevrolet, were 4.3 million vehicles compared with 2005 sales of 4.37 million. Chevrolet showed growth in all three regions outside North America, with the strongest performance in the Latin America, Africa and the Middle East region, with an additional 19 percent (144,000 vehicles) delivered over the 2005 level. Chevrolet also performed well in the Asia/Pacific region, which also was up 19 percent. There was a 15 percent increase in Chevrolet sales in Europe, compared with 2005. The Chevrolet Aveo helped Chevrolet field a strong competitor in the very competitive global small car market.

    GM also retains its strong truck portfolio, evidenced by HUMMER sales that grew nearly 34 percent globally in 2006, with 82,000 vehicles delivered, compared with 61,000 in 2005. This performance was paced by the continued strength of the midsize H3. While much of this growth was in the United States (up 26 percent), HUMMER also saw significant expansion in Mexico and Canada.

    Saab’s 2006 global sales set a record at more than 133,000 vehicles. Saab had its highest sales volume ever in Europe, exceeding 90,000 vehicles and record sales in Spain, Belgium and Canada.

    Cadillac posted a sales increase outside of North America last year, thanks to 22 percent sales growth in Europe.


    List price for a Impala LS is $ 20,945....
    The Toyota Camry is $ 23, 540
    Both are 3.5 6 cyl engines....heres the comparison data :

    Lets use your own source against you:

    Looks like the Camry has the Impala beat in most areas...well except for an optional engine block heater

    Uh...isn't 4.3 million less than 4.37 million?

    LOL..those are production stats ....selling in the USA Impala has Camry beat, AND add in the Malibu to the mix then you have Camry way behind Chevy !!! ...and this is the OLD Mali in comparative !!!

    http://www.edmunds.com/apps/nvc/chev...leid=100699458

    Plus go compare the top line camry with the Impala SS, even with a V-8 delivering 27 mpg, it is a better value for the money and a real automobile too...;

    http://www.edmunds.com/apps/nvc/chev...leid=100531256

    Get Real World.

    OPPS !....Camry is Not even in the same leauge as the Impala SS !!!

    I realise that, even before I posted my reply before. However, stating you hate avalons then stating your favourites being the American HiPo models does make one chuckle when there is such a difference between the two. Its quite obvious a Corvette would be superior to an Avalon, regardless if you made a comparison or not.

    i'd hate to be driving a camry as my sole vehicle, but i sure as shit would not want to drive a FWD V8. At least the camry makes no pretensions about being what it is...

    We had started talking about how Japanese cars were better than American cars and such... And this was supposed to be about a chop of a Camry. I think that is off topic.

    yeah it was a "spyphoto" thing, but I saw the REAL Impala and just chopped in what I saw...the orig was a different grille treatment, perhaps accurate tho for a base model.

    Look, NOBODY wants to drive a Camry.(at least not any of US here, that much I think we all agree upon....) & clutch If you have Never driven one then I would suggest that you do...it is much more better than you can imagine, ya cant tell it is a FWD car at all !!!....its a riot to drive really....303 HP and 27 MPG...hard combo to beat there !!!

    BUT....alot of people WANT to drive IMPALAS !!...& Chevys in general because the have style, value and heritage.
    Thats a hard combination to beat, & I give Toyo-let credit for making a go at it, BUT it aint gonna fly in the end.

    That was my ENTIRE point here from the start. Thats whay I redid the new Camry to look more American in its design, because to ME, the design is its downfall...and has always been so, and I owned a 1996 Camry, and a 1994 Celica...both were decent cars until the Celica Blew A Engine...right after delaer maintenience had been done on it and the Camry threw a rod before 25000 miles hit !!!

    Now that may say something about my driving style, more so than the cars...LOL, BUT my CHEVYS have NEVER complained and NEVER had such serious problems that took them off the road and into the junkyard.

    ..and Drift I have posted several more pictures and chops here to keep the FOCUS on the Images, but this is a compelling topic....and I see no conflict in posting disscussion comments as a result of a PS picture...matter of fact I encourage ANYONE to post THIER version of a new Camry or Impala or whatever that would sell in the standard 4-door sedan market here now !

    I personally would LOVE to see what you all consider to be an acceptable STOCK PRODUCTION sedan !!!...

    I really would like to SEE that !!!

    Personally this has become one of the most interesting threads on the site IMO....& I thank ALL of you for your contributions, it is a GAS to read your comments !

    .......???...anyone wanna SHOW me what ya got ?

    but this i don't get. the impala looks every bit the shopping trolley as the camry does. It has no style, they're as generic as each other, and at least the camry isn't a disgrace to an older model. plus, it has that stupid fwd V8 layout.

    I guess you missed my edit directed at you...GO DRIVE that "stupid" FWD V-8 setup, same as on the Grand Prix and Bonneville and Monte Carlo....I guarantee AFTER you do that you will NOT think it is stupid at all !!!...and this IS what American cars are all about too....because,
    You'll be amazed at how smooth and powerful it is, & still pass by the gas pumps at full throttle !!!!
