Looking to get a Monte Carlo

Well recently due to car issues I would need a new engine for my current car. So I got to looking, and got quite interested in Monte Carlos. I seen one at a local dealer which is a dale Earnhardt intimidator edition. My question is, what is the difference with an intimidator edition vs a dale Earnhardt edition? Or are these not even two separate types? I am mostly interesting in the Super Charges SS's. Any help distinguishing the differences in this car would be awesome

thank you

Im pretty sure the difference is just the paint haha. And the supercharged engine makes 240hp, where the non supercharged 3800 makes about 200hp. The supercharged also takes premium.

The Dale Earnhardt Series Monte Carlo is a 2002. It has the non-supercharged L36 engine, and it still has all of the Monte Carlo SS Badges. There are also custom headrests in that car.

The Intimidator Version is a 2004, they rebranded the car to say Intimidator instead of Monte Carlo, and it has the Supercharged L67 engine.

There are also some minor changes I believe. Like the instrument cluster.
