I bought mine new...but it wasnt ZERO miles. Mine had I think 69 or 76, something like that. Maybe it was 69, and 76 after my test drive. I don't exactly remember now. LOL So all 160K is mine though.

the monte's inching up on 170,000.... slowly, now that it's not a DD.

my truck, however, already has 83,000 miles on it. got it last september with 67,000 miles. i'm fairly sure i drove it more in the last year than it's been driven in the last 5 years, lol.

I own a 1999 MonteCarlo Z-34 that i ordered factory direct in 1998...paid cash for it.
It was built in Canada and was the first 99 montecarlo Z-34 in the states...

Its triple black, fully loaded, with all the bells and whistles! I added a full body kit to it. front rear sides and rear spoiler. Then limo tinted out all the windows, even the front window is tinted 35% ! with the typical eye brow on the front windsheild....

Added custom wheels, Changed out the dualexhaust with magnaflow duels and bowtie Chrome tips...

Then had Custom Hand painted graphix added down the sides.....includeing personal initials aded....Removed front grill and bowtie, replaced it with a billet grill. what a difference! Have had it in several carshows, won many 1st place trophys with it. even had it in the international hotrod show here in detroit!
Its now a daily driver with over 154,000 miles on it! replaced trans about 10,000 miles ago...It gets oil changed every 3000 miles or 3 months religiously since it was new. every year fluid filter changes on trans. Regular maintenance on brakes tires etc....and replaced the upper intake at about 110,000...the car runs flawless! starts every frickn time !!! replaced battery at 80,000 miles (no biggie)....I love my MonteCarlo !!!! so, if u want something dependable, classy, gutsy, and excellent fuel mileage..then the 99 monte Carlo 34 is for you !!! will add a pic soon....This one is a real head turner withall the things i have added to it....Some people dont even know its a Monte Carlo let alone a Z34 ! all the emblems are blacked out !! from the factory (the way i ordered it)....Oh 1 other thing I had custom hand painted on the rear bumper.... The Full Monte !!!! and believe u me it is !!!!!

Currently has 168,000 Miles on it...

My car is an 81 that was a factory 3.8 turbocharged. When I got it the motor was apart, the intake and some of the parts were in the trunk. The turbo parts were missing as well as the heads. I went to the local junk yard and bought a pair of heads and a few other parts that were missing. The true mileage is unknown because the speedometer was broken most of the time I drove it. It showed 90,000 miles on it. For over a year it was our only running car and we are doing over 50,000miles a year. Once I got her running she ran very well other than being a gas hog, she only gets 13 mpg. I replaced the brakes, and belts. The t-tops leak whenever it rains so the A pillars and cowl are rusted out. I am still collecting parts for a full restoration. I parked her about six months ago. She is developing too many electrical issues. I don't want her to burn up.

All the cars we have except my horizon and my monte we've owned since they left the dealer the first time. Next highest mileage car would be my dads GMC Envoy at around 70k or so. Nothing too major done, usual stuff, a vacum pump was replaced. Something to do with the catalytic converter.... And we've replaced the blower motor resistor pack twice. Otherwise its a great suv.
