Re: Impala to replace Monte Carlo in NASCAR

Agreed. The rumor was that the Monte Carlo was supposed to get the axe and that there might be a large mid-sized coupe ala Chevelle to make a come back and compliment the Camaro.

But who knows --- perhaps Chevy has something else up their sleeve. I can remember Lutz and others saying that GM should eliminate overlap between divisions and a new Chevelle to replace the Monte Carlo might be considered a kind of overlap with the expected GTO for Pontiac.

GM has been kind of vague about all of this anyway, so we'll have to see....
