My thoughts exactly. Nothing special at all about this car for how they are trying to promote it. No photo's of the engine bay, wonder how dirty it is?? I mean it's a nice Monte and all but no over the top performance mods done to it at all. Should have worked over the suspension,NASCAR wheels,special tires, put special badges on it and a few other tweaks. The dash looks all scratched up too, like they never even tried to armor-all it or nothing. The bidding should actually start at ?????

ehh I like it with the stripes:p, first thing i would do is toss them headrests and get some SS ones lol :cool::thumbsup:

Franks 03SS 03-07-2012 09:45 PM

oh and im not diggin the grilles either :p

red04montels 03-07-2012 09:59 PM

I don't like the grilles, I don't really like how rounded off the stripes are either

I know Earnhardt Chevrolet did do some customizations before. We've seen 5th gen Montes on here that were customized by Earnhardt Chevy. But I can't help but think that there's just not a whole lot of customizing in this 07. DEI stripes and headrests. Maybe it's a trick of the light, but the headrests look to be a darker shade than the seats. Like it came from another car maybe?

If it is legit, why no picture of the autographed visors? Why no picture of the certificate provided by the dealership? Seems to me if you're marketting this car based on it's rarity, you'd want to prove that what you have is the real deal.

If you're talking about the DEI stripes on the sides, the style of those stripes are correct. The only thing I notice about them is they're missing the white outline that you see on the real racecar. Seems to me Earnhardt Chevrolet would've known better than to screw up their own logo.

You may prefer the more squared stripes on the dale jr editions. But the ones on that 07 are more authentic.

It looks like a nice car. I like the headrest logo, I wouldn't really want them in may car but they are nice. I think Dale Earnhardt Chevrolet will do signature cars, trucks and whatever they can for ever.
