Default MC LSX

So I've seen a few of these in my area, they are the Monte Carlo LSX. I am wondering if it is just a dealer-installed cosmetic package or if they are more. Can anyone enlighten me please? lol

what year models do they look like they are? I do'nt think there were any like that in the 5-7th generations (1996-2007). It seems like I've heard of the 80's having an LSX though... a 4th generation expert would have to answer that question though.

Hmm I have never heard of an LSX trim.
But could it be refering to the LSX family of motors. That would make it an 06-07 SS with an LS4.

No LT for gen bud. Just LS and Z34. Unless GM does things differently in Canada...Like the Chevy Optra...I had never seen/heard of one of those until I went on a bicycle tour of NS, PEI, and NB...lol. So I laughed at your story, couch, the reason being is because I had to google a conversion chart from Km to miles...and then a currency chart from $8,000 to whatever it is in U.S. dollars...oh the joys of working 3rd shift at a place that is dead at night. )

No LSX in the 4th gens that I know of? Only the LS and that didn't appear till 1986.

The C.L. trim 88ss408 mentioned included different seat covers. If you've ever seen an '80s Olds or Buick with the pillow looking things attached to the seats that's what the C.L. Montesgot.
