I was mistaken earlier. I have 31,000 kilometers on my 2004 Monte. Which converts to about 19,000 miles. On a 5 year old car. Nowwhen isBatman getting here? I'd like to make a deal with him for one of his Batmobiles. LOL.

Well I have a 2005 Monte Carlo LS. 3.4 engine with 46000 miles. It is bone stock with no mods. I am the second owner and purchased it on October 18th 2007. I have added a Galaxy Dx959 Cb with a Wilson 1000 antenna and that about it.

RE: Your Monte ?
i know that i cant afford to fork out the money for a brand new car, especially when in 2 years they're 1/4 of the price....so i'll buy mine 2 years down the road
