Like my s/n suggests, this is my first Monte... and probably my last. I've got a love-hate relationship with this car. When everything is working fine, I think it's probably the best looking car I've owned so far, and it can be fun to drive. But when there's a problem with it... and there have been quite a few (as a look through my service receipts reminds me), I think to myself, what the hell made me choose this car?

My parents also had a 1976 Monte Carlo that I called "mine". That one started my love affair...and, when I was just 3 years old, I was pointing to other Monte Carlos and saying "arlo". lol

Also- 'Space- It's awesome that your first Monte looks almost exactly like my first Monte. I don't have those wheels, the spoiler, and only have the 3.4, but it's still awesome!

3 montes
2002 Yellow Ls, When I was 17
2001 galaxy silver Limited edition, when I was 18
2003 white limited edition, and now I'm 19
Hopefully an 05 supercharged to come in my future and then an 07 SS and I'll be happy with that lol

The only two cars I have ever owned, fortunately both not lemons! I would keep buying them if GM brought these classic beauties back. Used '96 white Monte LS;
I do miss my old boy...
Sold to get my newer (used) 2005 black Monte LT - keeping this guy forever, hopefully.
Maybe one day I will get to own one from gen 1 or 2 and gen 3/4.
