This thread and the other thread about the least liked generation are offputting to me. And ironically they're both started by a 5th gen. owner. (not picking on you guys, just think that you probably could have guessed the outcome)

Regardless, they're were still some pretty negative things said about 5th gens (and other generations as well). We had nothing to do with how GM badged their cars, so if Chevy calls my car a Monte Carlo, it is in fact a Monte Carlo (not a 2 door lumina). Many cars have gone through transitions where they look nothing like what they did previously, or would in the future. I happen to like my "90's" styled Monte Carlo. That isn't to say I haven't like older or newer models (even more!).

I've been to one Monte Carlo Meet in my life, and it was nothing like these threads. I arrived and being the only 5th gen there, I expected to be walking around the whole time, talking to owners of Monte Carlos I had only seen in pictures. While I did do that, I was asked probably 10 times to lead a person back to my car and tell them all about it. They showed the same passion and fascination that I had with theirs.

It is my 98 Monte Carlo that sparked my passion. If I hadn't bought this car, I may have never become so enthralled with Monte Carlos, nor met such excellent online communities. We all have our flaws, but we're all part of the same history.

 

Very well said!

 

well said cully

 

I vaguely remember a thread from last year that talked about a new pic/logo for the site.
Didn't seem to go anywhere. Not 100% sure what the results were since it was before I got here. Moderators Boost or Bigg J might remember this better.

Personally, I can't say as I pay a lot of attention to the pic/logo at the top of the screen. To me the threads are what's really important around here. While the Intimidator at the top of the screen is very nice, it doesn't help me or give me valuable information. The members posting here do.

By the way, nicely said Cully.

Nuff said.

 

if youre happy with your car, how it drives and how it looks then thats all that matters

i see a lot of 5th gens i like even though theyre not my favorite.. its just personal preference.. and when you post a thread thats asking a question... youre going to get honest answers

 

That's exactly what I was thinking. Ask a question then slam everyone for the answers given?

 

Great vid!!

 

Thanks guys, I try to keep a level head[sm=smiley16.gif]
