[edit] Seventh Generation? - Agreed
GM has stated that the 06+ is simpily a refreshening and reviews from many automotive publications agree. If this was a new generation GM would explicity state it as such as it has in the past with all of its new generations.

[edit] Seventh Generation?
I find the claims that the '06-up Monte and Impala justify a new generation a bit dubious. What changes in generation for other GM models (or any car, for that matter) have actually shared any sheetmetal whatsoever? GM has freshened many vehicles in similar ways that were not a new generation; the fourth-generation F-Body comes to mind, with some remarkable changes between the 1993-1997 cars and the 1998-2002 cars (beyond simply the change from LT1 to LS1). GM's GMT400 trucks also went through revised front sheetmetal and a heavily redesigned interior through the '90s. Ayocee 14:09, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
