I'll step up to the plate and be the first to say, it doesn't look half bad actually. The Impala was a VERY boring car not to mention the interior seating was lousy because they absolutely no support. Granted it's very unusual but it doesn't look bad. Would I drive it? Yeah I would. Would I own it? No not at all.
Overall it's definitely unique and creative, I say well done for being different.

I totally agree except about the Impala ride and seating. I've never been in one so I can't comment there.

I'll put it this way when your taking turns the seats have absolutely no bolstering to hold you in so you literally roll around in the seat.
Heres a picture of their seats..

Exactly what I was thinking.

I think it's definitely something an older person would want on their car. Although there are some younger people who do that to their car also. Along with 28" rims and such. The kind of thing you see on pimp my ride.

I've never sat inside an 06 and up Impala.

I know many older people like oversize, cushioned seats. Like having a sofa/couch in your car. Those seats are comfortable, but offer no support. Not exactly what you want if you're more preformance minded. But if your car is a boulevard cruiser, then by all means put a La-Z-Boy chair in your car.

The Monte with the vinyl top made me vomit in my mouth a little.
