Please select one above
Hi Members,
What is the Number #1 Priority on your Monte Carlo ?
The Performance
The Look.
Your Sound System
Your MPG.
Please post your First Choice Priority for your Monte Carlo,
and Why it's #1 to you ?
Look forward to your answers.
Mine are in the order of the post options.
Performance is #1to me
Then looks, then sounds, then MPG's
Thanks

i don't want to be all show/no go.... i'd rather be all go and stock looks i've never been a loud musci kind of guy... i've never had my radio over about the second little bar on the dial (one teim.... bad cd, i had to turn it up pretty loud to hear it... or was that even in the monte?), but anyways. i'd invest in performance over anything.

For me it's:
1. Looks
2. Sound System
3. Performance

I've done a few things to my car to make it look a little better than stock (SLP grill, Exhaust tips, etc). My sound system is all complete, and now I'm working on the performance part.

looks will be my project this year, something to turn heads in will be fun. The stock monte SS is already quick. Next summer will be the performance upgrades.
