Monte Carlo all the way ...
I don't think I would have it any other way honestly.
It took me almost a year to decide on what car I wanted to buy because I'm just too picky.
I hate Mustang, I hate Honda, Nissan (except the 350Z and Skyline R34) and Toyota (except the Supra) ..
I would have it no other way..
I get so many stares when I drive down the street I feel like anyday now a carjacking is about to happen.
Monte till the end ...

Even at 14.3 in the quarter that is friggin sweet!!!
Our Monte 3.8's only get about 16.3 so it is a full 2 seconds quicker. Alot will be body weight, but I think it is more how they designed the engine.

WOW!!! Those suckers are heavy!! I expected them to shed about 400 lbs minimum on the Monte. Their transmission must really help them out too.

a 2004 Monte Carlo SS 3.8L SuperCharged.
