Who do you think would win? An 05 TL vs. an older Impala SS and my friend said it had a 351.

Sounds like he is referring to the LT1 powered 94-96 Impala SS (260hp) as opposed to the SC 3800 Series II V6 powered 04-05 Impala SS (240hp).

If he is modified then, it would be a tall task for the 3G TL. But in stock trim, it would be a close contest. Take it to the track and let us know how it goes.

yeah, the caprice-body impalas are pretty nice. although they are heavy as well. as mentioned, a competent driver may do allright against a stock one but you would have an edge if you had a 6MT i think.

I love the old 94~96 Impala SS. They look like a cop car (Chevy Caprice) but nicer design. They're pretty quick but heavy at the same time. I think TL will have the edge, give it a shot. Race carefully, at the track

So honestly with the car stat reports looks like the TL has the edge...Go race at the track and find out

I smoked one easy 2 cars up to 80. But then again I am i/h/e/p, 2G TL-S vs 3G TL makes no difference though.

You would beat a 3G TL Auto with what you have. If anything you'd be even w/ the 6MT. Stock for stock, 2G TL-S and the 3G TL AT are the equal.

You will have no prob beating a Impala SS. I use to race them all the time when I just had a CAI and you should easily pull them.

if its an older one there should be no problem.. but i think the new SS is pushin about 305? somewhere in that neighborhood... my gf's 06 ltz pushes in the 240's i think... she always wants to race and talks shit abt my tl cuz she knows NOTHING about cars.. but id never race my gf... thats just stupidity lol... anyway take him to the track and let us know what happens

new Impala SS's have 5.3L V8 with 303HP and well over 300tq. They are fast, 0-60 in 5.6 sec. Not bad for a family sedan. New rims are nice looking too.

2003TL-S

Highway Patrol/Police in the area a little west of me are starting to use the new Impala SS as their cars, have seen about 3 unmarked now. I recently also saw a Dodge Charger w/ hemi engine unmarked as well.

Good grief I feel bad for you.... Down in VA they still use the old slow impalas, some intrepids, and occasionally an old caprice classic. Getting away from cops is about as easy as cooking a microwave dinner. Not that i'd try to run away from them or anything, i'm just saying, its pretty easy.

i ran a big body impala ss down the highway a few weeks ago from a 50mph roll, i pulled like 4 cars on him then he started gaining, at about 110 he pulled by me and just kept going haha...must have been modded, atleast i hope so.
