I own a 2001 Monte Carlo SS. Best car ever! Very fun to drive and relatively low maintenance

[@Mike-cm8vz]

Found one with 62k miles, what makes them fun to drive?

[@pestisdeathbird5058]

@@Mike-cm8vz They get attention, the cops tend to leave you alone, and every time you make a turn no matter what speed you're going it feels like you're in a race car

[@mopargm9329]

​@@pestisdeathbird5058amen bro. I'm on my 5th Monte Carlo SS now. I currently have an 04 Dale Jr supercharged SS and it is a blast to drive and definitely does get attention

Always loved that Chevy cloth from the early 2000s

[@mr.boutte2307]

I have friends that have never been in mine and they go crazy once they see the trac control button.

[@camiwerrell5098]

Is it a reliable car? I’m about to get on with only about 120k miles for super cheap from a friend

A super charger only gives you a bump of 40hp?

[@mrdrakkar38]

And like 40 more in The tork along with the 40 hp...have a 2004 intimanador...and there trans is a little more stronger...you will notice the diffrence big time if you drove both styles ....

[@madeulook5872]

It doesn't only give 40. They only did that cuz the blower is small and making a car that cheap have big numbers wouldn't have been smart.

[@AustinsGarage]

Seams to be in good condition. I wouldnt buy one. You can get a nice two door car with more power for around the same cost. Although early 2000's chevys don't fail. Thats why my silverado has 315k on it.

Your car radio and dash is on drugs

[@suprastevio2264]

It's just the way the camera picks it up. The same sort of thing that you see when people try and take videos of an old crt television.

[@victoriao.5993]

The just camera is just showing the refresh rate on the radio and dash
