RE: Cully Bought Another Monte
Found the original sticker for mine: $31,140
I normally don't go for red, i normally like silver/gunmetal. But gm got it right with "Precision Red" (I also love Torch Red from 5th gens, and older luminas though) I liked what the salesman said to me when I was about to leave with it:he says "look, theres 12 cars in this garage right now and theres only 1 that stands out". I know that's partially just being a good salesman, but when all the other cars in there were dark/bland colors, the MC just stands out.
She's cozy in the garage right now, drove the 98 to work in the snow.

Looks great Scott.
I've never seen the 'Precision Red'. Is it really that orange or is that just the camera/computer screwing with my eyes?
Man, I can't wait until I get the new car feeling again.

Congrats on the new ride! What dealership did you buy it from? I am still trying to sell my Mini so I can buy an 04 Intimidator Monte at Wickstrom Ford in Barrington.

RE: Cully Bought Another Monte
again very nice. if you want any links to parts i have done enough shopping around and have just about found the lowest prices for alot of parts.
i was lookin at it and i dunno if you are one for visual mods but it would look BA with some tints, lowering kit, and the lower black inserts by the exhaust and front lip to go red or make the entire lower trim black.
i like looking at cars and thinking of stuff to paint. lets do the hood.
