Default Fastest FWD Cars

I borrowed this information someone posted on another Monte site.

Read the provided link, they list the Monte as #1. [sm=smiley20.gif]

Why are the Impala and Malibut 3.5's on the list but not the Monte Carlo 3.5?

Did I miss it?

Space,

Other Monte owners made similar comments about the report and the Monte V8 being the very first car.

As for the Monte being named the fastest FWD car, hey I knew it.

I like the list, especially to see our beloved Monte at the top, but the writer refers to the fast FWD cars as dynamic disasters. He claims that these FWD vehicles are TOO fast to be FWD. I tend to agree, but still think the '07 Monte SS is the coolest thing this year. My most sincere hope is that the Monte Carlo will take a long-coming rest for a couple years, then decimate the coupe market with a true RWD, V8-powered, knight in shining armour!!
