This is the Impala SS that actually matters—the one with the LT1, not the 1994-95 pretenders. Black paint, 90k original miles, modified exhaust, and it's been in California since new. The 4L60E is the weak link everyone knows about, but the fundamentals are solid.

The Roadmaster Estate represents a specific moment when American luxury wagons still meant something—this first-owner example came loaded with factory options that most wagon buyers skipped. With the LT1 V8 and full Prestige Package, it's a seven-seater that didn't sacrifice comfort for practicality. Clean examples are getting harder to find, and values on well-optioned specimens are finally climbing.
