Notice the back door on the stretch Monte.... It looks to me like a '00-'05 Impala rear door....

I've been a LIMO and bus Driver. I've driven a 35' Excursion many 24 and 28' Townsend and a 45' Bus. I Love my 6Th Gen! But I can Honestly tell you that as Nice as this car may Look, it would Suck To drive with just a 3.4 or 3.8Lt engine. And the engine would not last Very long pulling the extra weight of 12 more ft of car, the bar, 2 extra doors and the long bench seat and extra glass. It would have to have the 5.3Lt that wasn't available for that year. And trust me when I say, they do nothing to enhance the suspension or steering. All in all the only thing this car/Limo does is Look good! No performance what so ever. And as a limo driver, when you are in Midtown Manhattan, you want some performance in your Limo cause taxi drivers give you absolutely No Respect. When you are on the highway or climbing a hill you want to be able to maintain your speed. This wouldn't. Especially with 8 to 10 passengers. This would be a Nice Show car or Mantle piece I rate it

Yeah it looks like the same one that space posted. I agree with jc colon that would be very sluggish when fully loaded with people. Looks real nice tho
