5. Chevy Impala

Debuting in 1958, the Chevy Impala was Chevy’s most expensive passenger model and was one of the best selling cars in the United States. The chief engineer for Chevy at the time of the Impalas release defined it as a “prestige car within the reach of the average American citizen.” The Impala remained one of Chevy’s most popular cars throughout the 60s, 70s and mid 80s. In 1961 Chevy introduced the Impala SS (Super Sport). The SS badge became Chevy’s signature of performance on many models. Between 1994 and 96, Chevy revived the Impala as a muscle car with a 5.7 liter V8 motor. Used for taxis and police interceptors, the Impala remains a popular car to this day, selling over 15 million units.
