I personally hate 2 tone paint jobs so Limited it was. Limited models with no options are right at 50K MSRP.
As far as power this isn't the toy, just a good people hauler. But that fact that super chargers, exhaust, headers, tunes, etc is already available is a plus.
Also I don't really consider the Impala a big loss. It started to have so many electrical gremlins. .. annoying.
