I have a 2006 Super Sport I purchased new in March of 2006.
I named her Lil Deuce Coupe cause I like the Beach Boys and this song reminds me so much of this car. My "Big Slip daddy" is the Diablo Lew tune I have. The Magna flow although not really lake pipes are loud. Most people don't know what she has because non chevy drivers think she is a six cylinder.
What she has:
MPD Ram air hood
K&N cold air induction
Chip tune by Lew
XXR gold wheels
Anzio Projection Halos
Custom red leather trim by me.
LedGlow undercarrage glow lights
Intergrated Phone
Leather heated seats and mirrors
multi disk CD with MP3
What I want to add:
I'd like to shave the chrome GM logo squares and add old school knight crest emblems.
Lower it by at least 1.5 inches.
Some nice door sills
One of these years I'd like to paint her candy apple red and add gold ghost flames behind the white side panel SS logos with maybe a monte knight crest painted on the hood scoop. This last one is just a dream right now

I have a 2000 LS
I purchased this car used in late September of '10 w/ about 53,5xx miles. I've since rolled it to 62,2xx. The car cosmetically was pretty good on the inside, although it had some problems on the outside. A lot of knicks and chips in the paint. The rusty wheel wells were poorly repaired (some Ohio winter salt undid that). So mainly I've just been painting and repairing.
Current Mods:
- Swapped trunk lid w/ an '05 w/ a NASCAR spoiler
- Wheel wells fixed and painted
- Problem spots painted
- Ground effects painted body color
- Dual Magnaflow exhaust
- "Monte Carlo" windshield banner
- Added fog lights
Future Mods (in order):
- L67 w/ HD trans swap (48k miles)
- PCM tune (Overkill tune)
- Wizaired CAI
- Either headers or a downpipe (Magnaflow or ZZP w/ H/F Cat)
- HIDs
- Change all interior lights to LED (they're starting to burn out, especially on the radio)
- Dale Jr Rims w/ 17" tires (for fair weather rims)

My '02 Monty was bought new from the lot, we loved the pace car look so we found the only "real" pace car in town and my sticker guy measured everything and made a near perfect copy She mostly takes 3rd in shows. but the last two years she had a hard life not knowing if she was going to have a home. she was traded in 3 times. for a '10 Camaro, '10 Avalanche, and then a '09 Avalanche(the first blow its engine) bought back each time and 3rd time i told them I'm buying her and gave them my two cars and a little cash. but today shes sitting in the shop getting her cooling system worked on. As for the future, a new paint job in the works, replace the decals and I think she'll stay the way she is. Sorry, I like to ramble about her

"LuSe4" (pronounced Lucifer), is a 2006 Monte SS. I bought him March of 2009. He was a lease turn in with 26,000 miles on (currently has 42,000ish miles). The previous owner took excellent care of him. He has been a great car that I really enjoy owning. Here are a list of the mods I have done so far:
Tinted windows
Front and rear STB's
painted calipers
Stainless exhaust tips
tinted third brake light
Depo headlights
SS overlays
Bowtie wheel overlays
"SS" on grille
blacked out chrome on grille
"SS'" on headrests
The only mods I may still do is a tuner to get rid of the DOD, maybe a Magnaflow catback (if I can find a deal), and a resonator delete. I try to keep him spotless and polished which sometimes can be a losing battle with a black car.

Well mine is an 06 SS i picked up two March's ago...March 17th was the exact date if I remember correctly..My first "new to me" car purchased from a dealer...Prior to that I had an 01 SS which was Blue..I inherited from my GPA and letting it go was pretty hard to do because of the sentimental value but it was it's time.. ANYWAYS! Got it with about 42xxx on it now it was 54xxx...I have a bit done to it...The K-N intake I installed myself, very easy to do..The Hogan DP and SLP Catback were installed by my grandpa and stepdad while i was in my pre deployment workup... And yeah thats pretty much it I got back last march and have been driving it crazy since...And it currently has transmission problems, pretty sure its the Torque Converter...
