Default New member, 2004 Monte Carlo SS

So just the other day my parents surprised me by getting me a 2004 Monte Carlo SS. This has been the car I have wanted since I was about 9 or so when my dad used to have one. He had promised me when I was old enough to drive he would give it to me, but it started to break down and he didn't want to keep having to fix it up just to have it parked in a storage shed and drag it around to different states we moved to(he had a new car by then).

For a while I had been driving our old 2005 Nissan Murano, but I am much happier with this Monte!



I hope the pictures go through I had to resize them like 3 times.

I can't see the pictures because I'm at work, but glad to see you're with the Monte family now!

Welcome to the site and congrats on the new car!

Welcome Sean!! Where in Ohio are you? I'm located in Mentor-on-the-Lake (20 miles East of downtown Cleveland).

I love the color scheme of your Monte!! Probably my 2nd favorite color scheme to the blue and silver I have. Congrats!!

I'm in Northern Columbus, near worthington at the moment. Although I will be driving this thing to Oregon in a couple weeks hopefully.

I am also surprised at how I like the color. I always dislike the burgundy color but I am starting to like it a lot more now Haha. Every time I park I keep looking back at it while walking in the parking lot.
