I would think the reason why the LTZ is more costly is because there was not that many made.
I dont think anyone has the totally figure between the models.....

 

ITs hard to find info bout it on the net tho.


Have you tried:

Edmunds
Consumer Guide
The Car Connection
Wikipedia

 

I found this about why Chevy stopped making the LTZ

For 2007 the LTZ model was dropped along with the 3.9L engine being dropped in favor of utilizing the Flex Fuel 3.5L as the exclusive engine for non-SS models.

 

No i mean just the SAE Certification stuff. any info let me know. I found the SAE certified info on cars.com

 

Hey Space
I know you are good at finding info about how many Montes were sold to date
Do you think you can dig this back up and can you find out about the numbers of each model sold

 

06LT3 is right about the LT3 being a great package...the 3.9 is worth it. They, Chevy, stopped making the LTZ because it was 'streamlining' production. I.E. it cost too much to have multiple models.

 

Cain
This is the reason why GM stopped making the LT3/LTZ with the 3.9L
This info came from GM

For 2007 the LTZ model was dropped along with the 3.9L engine being dropped in favor of utilizing the Flex Fuel 3.5L as the exclusive engine for non-SS models.

 

Well that's great for PR purposes but the 3.9 V6 is still being made they just don't use it in Montes.

 

And your point is??????

 

COST!!! Dropped because it was cost effective to have less models especially since 07 was last year production.
