Just the lowly 3.1, but I average 24 - 26 mpg in combined city/highway driving, mostly city.

I had the 3.1 in the 1991 Cavalier Z24 I used to own years ago. I had that puppy putting out close to 200 hp with some performance mods. That was during the era when GM was famous for watering down the performance of their engines. I kept it looking completely stock with the hood down. I had lots of fun with that car. Mu-wa-ha-ha-ha-ha.

Thanks again for all the nice comments.

OK, Taz, fill us in on what mods you did to get 200 horses out of the 3.1. Thanks in advance!

I humbly think you are wrong.

One or two or three people not being fans of 5th gen doesn't meanthere "aren't many fans."

I think most people here enjoy "ALL" generations of Monte Carlos.

Sorry about the hijack.
