Default Just got an SS, figured I'd say Hi.

So I've been around Monte's for awhile now. My mom had an 85 LS when I was about 3 until 5. She sold that car to my sister when she bought herself an 86 SS with a 305 in it. We put over 300k original miles on that car. We recently swapped out the 305 for a race built 350. Bored .30 over, stage 2 NHRA drag kit, medium cam, mid rise intake...you know. Anyway, we wanted another Monte that got better gas mileage so she bought an 04 Canary Yellow SS, non-supercharged. Every option available too I think, minus the blower LOL. Fast forward to 2008 and mom now has grandkids, so she needs something more family friendly. Trades the SS in for an Impala LTZ, so I decide I have to take over the Monte Carlo legacy in our family...even though she still has the 86 SS monster.

I search Auto Trader for about a week, and I find the perfect Monte for me. I drive to the dealership, and tell them I want to trade this in:


We work the numbers and the details...yada yada...and I come home with this:


2006 Monte Carlo SS: NASCAR Pace Car edition. 54k on it, and I got it for $16,900.

Thanks. I'm glad I found it. It ends up being a lot cheaper than paying to add all that stuff on there myself.

Ask and ye shall receive.


No engine shots yet, but I'll take one as soon as my phone gets done updating.
