2006 Monte Carlo with 5.3L V8
 

This is a picture of the all new Monte Carlo. It looks even better in person. Saw it at the LA auto show (it was in black).http://www.autoweek.com/files/specia...lo/pages/1.htm
Dont like the impala too much though.http://www.autoweek.com/files/specia...la/pages/1.htm :confused:

Sorry dude, but your a little late to the party...:p

Re: 2006 Monte Carlo with 5.3L V8
 

seen them already..butthe Monte I think will turn a few heads..

one thing is the reaend redesigned looks the same to me??

Re: 2006 Monte Carlo with 5.3L V8
 

something about the new rear end has transparent red circles or something
very very subtle change, unless it's night i suppose

Re: 2006 Monte Carlo with 5.3L V8
 

Ok, so it's got a new front bumper. The 5.3 is nice though.


Edit: It looks kinda like an overgrown Cobalt. The new Malibu/Vette/Cobalt/Monte/Imp... I don't like where Chevy is going as far as headlight design. It's ugly IMO.

Re: 2006 Monte Carlo with 5.3L V8
 

yea its a freshening of the car..just like the 98's front bumper of the Camaro..alnd then to the RWD platform

Re: 2006 Monte Carlo with 5.3L V8
 

They should not have made the frontends that similar. :(

Re: 2006 Monte Carlo with 5.3L V8
 

Since the Monte will only be around about 2 years it was a cost saving decision. I would imagine this will someday be a collectors item.

Re: 2006 Monte Carlo with 5.3L V8
 

Maybe for Monte Carlo collectors :D Maybe in 30 years,Barrett Jackson will give you a free '06 Monte for any purchase over 10K.
Seriously,it is a nice looking car,and the Impala is a major improvement.

Re: 2006 Monte Carlo with 5.3L V8
 

I think alot of people are under the mistaken impression that a Monte Carlo replacement is poised for release.

It's not. The current MC may be around longer than you think.

Re: 2006 Monte Carlo with 5.3L V8
 

I think you and Guy need to compare notes he has said many times the current(06) monte will live a very short life.

BTW can I get a CC on your conversation with him? :D

Re: 2006 Monte Carlo with 5.3L V8
 

looks like a bloated cobalt, i think it is ugly but about as exciting as chevy gets nowadays unless you have 40-60 thousand

Re: 2006 Monte Carlo with 5.3L V8
 

Who says we haven't? ;)

Re: 2006 Monte Carlo with 5.3L V8
 

So where we at on that Carbon Copy? :D
