Dean/Impala is the pairing featuring Dean Winchester and his car, a black, 1967 Chevrolet Impala (nicknamed "Metallicar" by the fans and "Baby" by Dean). The pairing appears in everything from crack and comedy, to more serious and seriously told anthropomorfic stories. The many, many scenes of Dean and the car are often included in vids.

In the episode, "Changing Channels", which places Sam and Dean inside alternate realities based on TV shows, Sam temporarily becomes the Impala in a take-off on Knight Rider. Using that version of the Impala turns Dean/Impala into a version of the Sam/Dean incest pairing.

Popular Tropes

  • Human Impala: The car is often anthropomorphized as a woman, creating a kind of het pairing, or as a man, for those who prefer slash.

Vids

  • Happy Together is a Dean/Impala vid by Andrea.[1]
  • Hey Pretty by astartexx. A vid told from the Impala's POV: ‘Hey pretty, don't you wanna take a ride with me? Through my world.’ The Impala is more pissed at Sam’s bitchy attitude, dad’s grumpiness and generally less forgiving than Dean.
