Perfect colors on both of these; they look great beside one another.

Magnificent great big ocean liners! These Imperials were about as large and impressive as owner-driven cars could be. I wonder what it feels like to parallel park one of these. One thing I'm sure of, though. There wouldn't have been any effort in moving that steering wheel. Power everything! Thanks for the fine post, John.

Cracking models in nicer colors than mine. I did not buy yet the 58 as I'm not convinced about the colors offered here in Europe...

When I take my 55 Imperial out for a drive, I'm frequently asked by non car people what year is your Impala.

That's sad. Most people just see an "Old Car"
