I was at a dealership looking at a 2000 camaro z28, ls1, t tops. My parents say the monte, saw it was slower, cheaper insurance, and forbade me from getting the Camaro.

 

Been in love with the Monte Carlo ever since my father brought home his new 79 I was like 5 or so. Almost had my hands on a few over the yrs but final Nov 2010 I ran across a white one ran over and traded the 99 Suburban in for it !

 

Wow, well at least they let you get that. my first car ended up being a silverado. i loved the truck, but when i bought it they wouldnt let me get one with a 5.3L v8.....

 

Went looking for a new car because my cavalier was getting up there in miles (112k).
I am VERY picky about my cars. and i came across a monte carlo online and, YES! HAD to have one. so, looked and looked and found a beautiful red 02SS, test drove it, and bought it!
So for me it was the Looks that caught my eye. i love how nothing else looks like them. They are unique! awesome lines on them. And now i have my 06SS. I will always love the monte carlo, its one amazing car.

 

I don't actually remember them..But, I heard stories of the 3 or 4 different Monte's that my mother and father owned throughout the years. They were always my mom's favorite, and therefore, I developed a love for them.
In 2003 We moved to WV and the room I stayed in was directly across the street from a brand new white 6th gen. I would dream about that thing all day long.
My mom bought a white 02 ls a few years back, and I drove it for a bit. I didn't actually like it much. It really kinda turned me off on the Monte's. She ended up selling that to my brother-in-law.
Then, last year, I bought a 2002 Honda Civic. I HATED IT! There was no power. No room, despite being a 4-door. The only good thing was my mpg. I was on my way to work one morning, and spotted that Knight's Crest peeking out at me from a local dealership...So, I swung in, and fell in love.
The SS had everything I wanted. The looks! The curves! The power! The ride was AMAZING compared to the civic. So, I quickly took a $2000 loss on the civic, and put a down payment on the monte!

In conclusion, I would have to say that my heart is why I chose the Monte. She seduced me..And, I couldn't be happier!

 

Cuz it looks like a NASCAR! I made it even more so...

 

Because climbing in and out of the Firebird was getting tough.

 

Long-story short a friend of mine a long time monte lover, gave me a ride in his 2000 SS and I fell in love with it again after wanting one when they first came out.

 

I was just looking for a cheaper older car at the time.Found her out in San Deigo for $800.The ride from San Deigo back to 29 Palms was comfy an smooth for being 23 years old at the time.Just fell in love with the ride an curves.
Now she's got a little more grunt under the hood an still rides great

 

When nascar came out with the new monte carlo ss in 1983 i said to myself, i have to have car. So in 84 i pick up a use 83 ss. After getting a new job in 85 i traded in the 83 for a new 1986 ss with t-tops. I this love the lines on the monte, when i would go for a drive people would tell me what a nice car. And there"s no other car on the road that looks like it. When my wife and i had our first child i sold the monte in 97 for a dam van. 9 long years later i traded in the van for a new 2006 black fully loaded monte carlo 3lt. Again there is no other car on the road like it.
