What is a Monte Carlo?
for awhile, browsing this forum for the last 5 months, I have wondered what is a Monte Carlo.
one can argue older montes are muscle. but I never see 6th gen montes referred to as muscle, even if they are an SS/supercharged. I know it's a bit of a silly question, but what would be your best explanation as to what a (new) MC is?
I saw in another thread someone (can't remember) said it wasn't a muscle car, but it isn't a general purpose grocery getter.
again, I don't know a whole lot about new cars in general so I'm probably missing something real obvious. just a question I had in the back of my mind.

Without being RWD and v8 powered, I have trouble saying the 5th-7th gens are true "muscle cars". Powerful, fun to drive, absolutely! Muscle, not so much.
Kinda like Amy said, a sporty full size two door....

I call the Chevrolet Monte Carlo a way of Life...
It's a choice It's an addiction & to me it's a personal `Touring coupe & some models are "Performance Touring Coupes" 4-Sure
*Friends or Family can even be comfortable in the rear seats ....Monte's aren't for everyone, but the one's that choose them are wise investor's in their automotive investment & choice 4-Sure
