Even with the rounded horseshoe design of the new taillights, consumers continued purchasing the Impala, making it Chevy's No. 1 model. Like Spitta remembered in Scarface, "it's the car they used in the initial drug deal gone bad that put Tony in Position."

Oh, we're sorry, you thought he wouldn't put a car on the list from one of his own videos? Psh, it's in his video for a reason, don't you think? The '63 was big, low-slung, and long, but the only other person Curren$y needed in the car was a bikini babe drivin' him around town.

This model year smoothed out the Impala exterior even more. Chevy clipped off the pointy edges and dented in the upper portion of the grille. The tail lights were no longer surrounded by an aluminum strip, but rather trapped in a body color, while the aluminum was bumped above the lights in an upside-down "U" shape spanning the entire rear.

As Curren$y said, "never in a movie, but they kill." The "fastback" models had a distinct look exclusive to the '67-'68 year thanks to a sloping, streamlined C-pillar.

Ahh, the year of the Super Sport. God love Chevrolet for implementing such a brilliant package into their cars, which essentially birthed the American muscle car. Giddy up 409!

This is one of the most sought-after models of the Impala, with its pointed front and rear edges, aluminum striped rear, and a sunken instrument panel. When it first came out, the low and spacious '63 was available in six different models, including the wagons. Cube was ridin' solo in this case, though.

This might have been the year that the Chevelle was introduced to the world, but Dr. Dre knew to keep it with the classics. Chevelles couldn't cruise around the road on three wheels like the Impala.

This Impala stands out from the pack on this list for two reasons: it wasn't technically involved in a pop culture film or video and it's got the chameleon paint job. The colors almost changed as well as Master P's transitions from rapping to acting!

Chevy stepped up to luxury in the '63 in order to match it's already extremely comfortable exterior by adding "hot or cold" engine lights in the dash,"air-washed" rocker panels, stainless steal mufflers, "self-adjusting safety-master" brakes to help reduce wear, and all-season air conditioning.

Originally priced at $24,405, the SS lived out its final year in glory before it was chopped. The instrument panel was completely redone to include a tachometer and they moved the shifter to the floor, making it a more distinct sports car and separating it further from the Caprice.
