Why does this site hate 5th generations so bad? Because it looks like the lumina? What is it because they're not as fast, which some are as fast as 6th generations or faster.. I would like to know..

Umm... Where did that come from? I might have a blind eye to it as I own a 6th gen, but I don't recall offhand anyone going off that 5th Gens suck or anything.

I like them... I just like mine more.

Ahh!!! That explains it. Yeah, I have to agree with it though.

The 70's had the muscle car thing going on.
The 80's had a kickass body style and engine package.... Love the Black SS with red trim.
The 6th Gen had the Nascar look.
The 7th Gen... Well I'm not big on that, but they have the V8 and do havea solid look.

The 5th Gen just didn't seem to have the exterior look for me and the engines were Meh compared to earlier years and later years.

BUT!!!! I don't hate them.

Same thing could be said about the 80's Mustangs that looked like Escort GT's. That was one of the dumbest things Ford ever did. =P

i agree with you on some points but being a 5th gen owner i can say it with full knowledge. just like the 7th gens it had NO personality at all just a 2 door version of another model, the 3100 espically was a pathetic excuse for a engine, tho the DOHC 3.4 wasnt that bad but compared to b4 and after it sucks too. tho ive put untold thousands into my car it needs more, i swear chevy put the ls models together with bubblegum and shoestrings. even the simple things like the carpet that goes under the dash to hide stuff is pathetic cant keep it in place no matter what i try. so i rebuild and it works fine. tho my expirence is only with the ls models i can say by just what ive had to deal with with this car i have to agree chevy didnt even try

I always assoiciated the 90's model of the Monte Carlo to the Barretta I didn't like either body style and never looked twice at one.

Hello `Anthony,
"We do not `Hate in the Monte Carlo Family,
we DisLike"
We are a diverse group of humans from all ages/backgrounds/
races/religions/sex/nationalities/etc.
Like any family, we shall disagree on the pro's & con's of
each model, but in the end, we are loyal to our choices,
to our Monte Carlo : )
We each have a favorite Monte Carlo.
We just like some model's better then others : )
There are so many choices of transportation in our World,
and many of us prefer the Awesome Monte Carlo.
I am thankful that we have a choice, many do not.
I prefer Love, over `Hate
EnJoy your `Monte
Peace/Happiness/`Space

I don't believe we hate your car. I don't know where you get that... but this forum likes the 5th generations. We never hate on any Monte Carlo's here.
