Revival!

At last, on eBay, I have found a gold trimmed G5 Monte Carlo LS. Its a little rough, and the pics are not the best...but it definitely shows the gold trim and emblems/bowties where they are normally chrome. It doesn't appear to have gold trim around the bottom is gold..but for sure the bowties (front, rear & wheels) and lettering is gold. Any of the other cars like this I have seen, the trim around the bottom was gold also.

I see it all the time with Camry's and everything.

I will assume it is just something that Dealer's tack on to try to make you think it is limited edition haha.
