I can't say I'm a fan either, too many little details that are messed up that just become blatantly obvious, the grille is messed up, the headrests are a different color, could go on..but I couldn't handle this car being somewhat of a perfectionist myself, not sure how a dealer could make these changes and think it looked even okay.

I asked the dealer why I should pay a grand more with more miles, and he told me 'this is a special edition dale jr. Monte carlo!' I looked and it had a STICKER on the back window said dale jr. And a MAGNET on the back saying dale jr. With a signature.
I told him I wanted the sticker scraped off and the magnet removed if I buy it, but he wouldn't budge on the price, so
Black Licorice won!
wow thats rediculous, anything to make an exta dollar i suppose

I mean, they are in one picture, not as the focus, way off to the side. Their racing stripes are way too rounded off on the corners for my liking. The black version say "Dale Sr." WAY more than the red.

You mean a picture like this?

Yes, thanks Taz.

I've looked at pictures of this car multiple times now, and each time I like it less. For one, like I said earlier, the racing stripes are WAY too rounded off on the corners. The side graphic and billet grilles just don't look right on the car. Overall just not doing it for me. Just looks like they ruined ten good SS's in my opinion.
