The Chevrolet Monte Carlo LT And It's Features
The Chevrolet Monte Carlo Lt forms remind us of sedans, coupes and sports models. These sports forms went on to win a lot of races at the NASCAR events. Chevrolets offer to customers has been optimal fuel effectiveness and luxury.
From those early years -- which included big-block SS (Super Sport) editions -- the Monte Carlo evolved toward a more luxury-oriented persona, saw important downsizing (to optimize fuel efficiency) and soldiered on as a popular rear-drive sport car until 1988, when it was replaced by the Lumina car.
The current-generation Chevrolet Monte Carlo coupe debuted in 2000 with more distinctive styling and updated underpinnings from the Impala sedan to better meet the needs of today's customers. Important changes in 2006 helped the Monte Carlo come nearly full circle back to its original mission with sportier chassis tuning, improved driving dynamics and more power in SS models, while freshened interior and exterior styling present a sculpted and pleasing contemporary appearance. In spite of those updates, sales remained slow-moving and the Monte Carlo was gone after the 2007 model year.
In the 1980s, the Monte Carlo Lts body was restyled with a smoother profile based on GMs mid-size formal cars. A Super Sport model was introduced in 1984 which came first in several races.
Overall, this version of the Chevy Monte Carlo, which only lasted through '07, was a spacious sport car that offered buyers a reasonably good comfort/performance trade-off for a relatively low sticker price. Although fast in a straight line, the V8-equipped Monte Carlo SS suffers from a nose-heavy feel.
Used-car shoppers interested in a late-model Monte Carlo will probably encounter the previous-generation model, which was available from the 2000-'05 model years. Based on the then-new Impala platform and wearing new, distinctive (some said ugly) sheet metal with heritage styling cues, the Monte Carlo was at first offered as an LS with a 3.4-liter V6 engine making 180 hp, or an SS with a 200-hp 3.8-liter V6.
However, the Chevy Monte Carlos prospect remains a question after GMs formal announcement that production was ceased at the Oshawa Car Assembly Plant #1 in June 2007. Without any future plans of commencing production, Chevy Monte Carlos future is in doubt. - 2368
