What Is That Color? 1973 Chevrolet Impala
Does GM still make the Impala? Quickly heading to duckduckgo to answer that question...no, the last Impala limped off the assembly line in 2020 and it hasn’t yet been reborn as an electric crossoverpod. But, with over 60 years of production and 10 generations there are plenty of Impalas roaming around the streets and you wouldn’t have wanted to buy a new one anyway. What you want is an Impala from the 5th generation (1971-1976) when it was the top selling Chevrolet and performance came via big block V8s and gas was $0.17 per gallon. Find this 1973 Chevrolet Impala bidding for $13,500 reserve-not-met with 2 days to go located in Boise, ID via ebay.

Knew a girl in college that had an Impala convertible. She named Vlad. She would always introduce it to people as though it were a person “This is Vlad, the Impala”
This Impala looks like a. Vlad.
Your college friend came up with the best car name i can ever remember hearing. way more than _+1_ for Vlad the impala
Google reveals a number of Impalas with VLAD THE plates.
I regret never getting the plate I wanted for the Light Adriatic Metallic Roadmaster Estate: GOT KRIL — and I would have painted a ? next to that on the bumper.
A couple of plastic shrimp attached to the Buick’s baleen-like grill would further the theme.
As someone who drove a 78 Malibu in the same color, I can say with some authority that the official name of that color is “baby shit brown”.
The color? Taco Bell Canon
