The Impala is getting powertrain upgrades.  Otherwise nothing until the new model.

It's getting the 3.6L and 6spd auto.  Should make for a decently quick rental warrior

i like the 2012 r/t as shown (back to the avenger)... it still baffles me that chrysler's putting so much money into a car nearing the end of its life. i do applaud dodge for doing this, as chrysler did with the "200" sedan and convertible line-up. i am a big fan of frequent updates and have always liked the r/t offerings from dodge. bravo!
