RE: MC LSX
ORIGINAL: rj What was the limited edition Monte that was available in '02 or '03? I know some of the members on 2kMC have talked about one. Where's Cort when you need him? Sorry, RJ, I wasn't feeling well last night so I went to bed early. Still am not feeling all that well tonight, but didn't want to get too far behind on all the forums ... lol. I recall several different limited editions in the 2000+ editions ... which one(s) are ya thinkin' of? ;) As for the 80s ... NO ... NO LSXs. 1981-1982: SCs (Sport Coupes) only 1983-1985: SCs SSs (Super Sports) 1986: SCs LSs (Luxury Sports) SSs 1987-1988 LSs SSs CL = Custom Luxury and was an INTERIOR OPTION ONLY. It was NOT a separate model. It was available on (iirc) 1982-1988 SCs and LSs.... I don't recall it being an option in 1981....I'll have to check my brochure to be sure, tho.... I have an '81 MC SC: http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort/mc19...07_13_JPG.html ...and an '87 MC LS (with CL package).... http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort/mc19...07_12_JPG.html Cort:34swm."Mr Monte Carlo.Mr Road Trip".pig valve&pacemaker WRMNshowcase.legos.HO.models.MCs.RTs.CHD = http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort "Can money pay for all the days I lived awake but half asleep?" ...

RE: MC LSX
Cort, why don't you ever bring the '81 SC to any of the Monte Nats?
Wish my g/f Deb's '81 SC was in as nice a shape as your car is. Mainly the landau roof, as in I wish it was gone. |

ORIGINAL: rj Cort, why don't you ever bring the '81 SC to any of the Monte Nats? It WAS at the MC Nationals at Indianapolis in 2000. That year, I had all of my MCs (that I owned at the time) there...all parked in the Wash/Show section.

RE: MC LSX
ORIGINAL: Taz Being a former member on a grand am forum, I think I may know what this is. The SLP explanation is on the right track. '99-'05 Grand Am's only came in LS and GT models from the factory. Alot of GrandAm owners on the GA site I was on would mod their grand am GT, just like any other car enthusiast would. Adding turbos, NOS, and all the other performance and appearance mods out there. These people wanted to distinguish their car as being more than a GT, so they would make-up their own model name. Made up model names included GTR, GTS, GTP, and GTX. GTX was the most popular. As we all know, if there's enough demand for something, the aftermarket will make it. I believe the 00-05 Monte LSX is an aftermarket company's (most likely SLP) creation for LS owners who want to improve the performance and looks of their Monte LS. It is most likely acollection of performance and appearance parts available for you to mod your LS Monte. Mostly a bunch of badges you can stick on your car to make people think your special. I must admit, the black LSX car mats looks nice. If I had an LS Monte, I'd probably buy 'em. |
