IIRC - I don't think ANY Monte Carlo came factory with a 5 speed. The only options were 2, 3 and 4 speeds.

Overdrive is 4th gear. TCC is sometimes confused for a 5th gear.

These cars would be extremely fun as a 5 speed RWD, with the wheelbase and weight they have. It's fun to dream about..

well, you all confirmed my suspicions. I can't for the life of me figure out why someone would lie about something that is so easy to check out. It's like saying you were the stating quarterback for the Bears last year... makes no sense to lie about stuff like that.

It happens a lot man, i posted not to long ago about a guy at work, he had a v6 ltz 06 monte, and claimed it was "special edition" because it has flags on the side of it.
People BS you when they know you have the better ride
