551-Mile 2004 Chevrolet Impala SS

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Offered with 551 miles shown on the odometer; this custom 2004 Chevrolet Impala SS features a supercharged V6, a tightened suspension package with MacPherson struts and fully independent rear suspension, and a sport appearance package that is complete with SS embroidery on the interior. The return of the SS badge to the Chevrolet was praised for its wide array of features including six-way adjustable power seats, dual-zone air conditioning, and a dazzling amount of gauges. This 2004 Impala SS is a time capsule of mid-2000s custom enhancements, bearing all of the hallmarks of an early 2000’s show car. The custom build comes draped in black and red two-tone metallic paint, this one-off creation by Carlini Design for George Foreman captures the boundless imagination popularized by the televised automotive customization series , bringing the appeal of metallic paints, and specialized bodywork to modern vehicles. Powered by a 3.8-liter “L67” V6 engine with an Eaton generation III M90 supercharger, it was rated at 240 horsepower and gave the Impala SS a 0 to 60 time of 6.4 seconds. An interesting time capsule that embodies the essence of early 2000s automotive culture, this supercharged Impala SS, with a low mileage of 551 and a distinctive appearance, figures to be a head-turner for many years to come.

This car is part of the George Foreman Collection, which comprises over 50 cars from the 1930s through today, with a focus on American classics and late-model sports cars.

Known Imperfections

• Please note that the vehicles in The George Foreman Collection have been in long-term static storage and will benefit from additional mechanical attention prior to being driven. Bidders are encouraged to review the Additional Documents section of each lot for any recent mechanical service rendered to help return certain vehicles to running condition. Additionally, bidders should carefully review the photos of each lot in the collection, which may highlight the oxidation of metal components certain vehicles sustained as the result of a garage fire caused by a golf cart battery in March 2019. Although none of the vehicles sustained fire damage from the fire itself, the negative cosmetic effects of the corrosive soot vary greatly from vehicle to vehicle and can be observed in the photo galleries of each lot. All lots are sold as is, where is, and bidders are responsible for any desired diligence before placing a bid.
