Nocturnx, I know you probably don't want to hear this, but the 6th Monte is a backwards engineered (or at least designed) Nascar. When Chevrolet designed it, they actually were building a car that would fit the template of what they wanted to race in Nascar. This gave them a huge performance edge until the other manufactures were allowed to build their cars to the MonteCarlo specs too. Eventually Nascar made the universal "Car of Tommorrow" which fit no street model template and Chevrolet discontinued the MonteCarlo.
Diehard Nascar fans know this and think everyone who bought a MonteCarlo does, but obviously from these boards we learn not too many of us are Nascar fans really. But MonteCarlo's really did exist for Chevrolet's Nascar marketing
MonteCarlo never were the fastest cars in the world. It never handled the best or out sold anything really. But there is one place in which it has no equal. The MonteCarlo is the winningest car in Nascar history!
Jeez... I must be a random stranger!

You know you drive a Monte Carlo when you spend a good portion of your day listening to exhaust clips on youtube trying to find one that makes it sound like a V8

We had a thread that was similar to this one time called "You might be a MCF member if..."
Cool thread!
When you can beat a V6 Mustang!
When you get used to ricer morons thinking they are faster than you.
You wish it was a rear wheel drive V8.

When you pull up to something with a reflection (A store window or a bus stop shelter) at a stop light, and you can't help but stare at your car in the reflection.
When there's a spot right in front of the store, yet you park in the back of the parking lot, and constantly look at your car as you walk across the parking lot.

Little kids ask, "Is that a REAL race car?" cause of your Nascar flags on the sides.
The guy next you to at the pump in the Furd Ranger tells you he thinks your car is beautiful.
You laugh when people can't figure out your debadged 4th gen is either a Pontiac, Olds, or Buick.
Your license plate begins with "EJR" and people tell you, you got the plate cause you're a Junior fan.
They ask how you like your J. Gordon edition Monte?
