It's not a bad looking car, but I think it's under powered for a signuture addition. Slap a V8 in there and make it rearwheell drive and you might have a nice car.

It's the last American coupe with good interior room like the Cougars and Thunderbirds used to be, but it needs to be RWD. I wouldn't sell it if someone gave it to me though.

Yuck, the new Monte Carlos are so flimsy-looking. The sheet metal looks so thin and NASCAR-like, it appears the whole thing is plastic. When the new MC first came out back in '94-'95, they looked pretty good.

if you look at the insides of a monte carlo, you'll realize it is all plastic. :notnice: btw, what kinda engines do they have. i wouldn't know. the one at the garage i work at is engineless.

IF Dale Jr himself gave me one I would not trade it in.
I think they are pretty to look at, I just won't buy one. I gotta break out of the GM cycle and get a ford next.

Heres ths Super Super sport:
Supercharged 3800 V6 engine with 240 hp and 280 lb.-ft. of torque
P235/55R-17 W-speed-rated Goodyear Eagle RS-A Performance tires
17" diamond-cut cast-aluminum wheels
Performance-tuned four-wheel independent suspension
Four-speed electronically controlled heavy-duty automatic transmission with overdrive
2.93 axle ratio
Bright, stainless-steel dual exhaust tips
"Supercharged SS" interior and exterior badging and full-perimeter "ground effects"
Race-inspired rear spoiler
Special full-width door-opening kick plates
Race-inspired six-gauge instrument cluster with boost gauge

ITS AN AUTOMATIC!
For the Vanilla SS: they took my olds and put a monte skin on it:
200-hp 3800 V6 engine with Sequential Fuel Injection
Tuned Sport suspension
16-inch Sport cast-aluminum wheels
P225/60R-16 Performance tires
Antilock brakes
Cruise control
Electronic Traction Control
Foglamps
Illuninated visor vanity mirrors
Leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio system controls and cruise control
Overhead console
Race-inspired rear spoiler
Sport Cloth front bucket seats
Tire Inflation Monitor

I DID!
And I never even knew the house across from DEI was Junyas until I moved away.Thats back when Nascar was still something worth watching. Sadly he has since moved- but I could tell you where the old one is- or Theresas house. Blast.


And I REALLY liked the old 80s Monte SS..
