Found some pics of the new Impala 9C1 being tested by a police dept in Indiana... looks pretty good.

Holy crap, is that (faux) wood in a 9C1??

Yes but it's called "9 mm S&W Gun Stock Walnut" on police versions!

Um, Charger, please.

Holly Smokes, just got my 2006 tax assesment... ...foot-patrols only, please!

Um... I thought Glocks (which are plastic) are more popular.

My point was, why do they need it? Just to add cost?

Well, considering its PLASTIC wood and not real wood, I doubt it costs anymore to make than any other plastic part. In fact, it would probably cost more to manufacture an entire seperate dash trim for the 9C1s than it would to just use the fake wood that they are already making for the LTs.

Just because the dealer charges extra for fake wood on civvie cars doesn't mean it actually costs more to make :lol: .

If I remember correctly "wood" is a no-cost option, at least on my G6 it was. Thank goodness mine didn't come with it.

I don't even think it is an option on the civ Impalas... unless you get an SS, all of them have wood.

But that said its nice looking wood... the Impala, Lucerne, and Lacrosse are examples of fake wood done right, the G6 looks awful with it.
