What the heck is the deal with roof rails? Why do people covet them so much?

They do add an extra touch to the roof line. They resemble the roof rails on Nascar racecars. But I also think there's a bit of the idea that people want something they don't have. Monte's never came with the roof rails. The Grand Prix's did. And only certain GP's got them, not all of them. Which makes them even more rare. People like having something that's rare and unique.

I have a set that I haven't installed yet. Still deciding what I want to do. Currently mine are painted purple. They came off of an anniversary edition GP. So I would have to paint mine if I install them.

Exactly it's just a used low mileage pace car but like most ppl think it signed so it's worth a ton
