That looks really nice!
My only complaint about the exterior is why didn't they change the door handles like on the Impala? Anyways, I hope you enjoy your new ride!

Looks nice. And yeah that really disappointed me about the door handles. I don't like the wheels on the Monte And Impala SS's. Look too much like a Lexus SC's wheels. But nothing could be worse than those.

What, no NASCAR decals?

It should be a good car, they tend to last forever. Although the exterior is still homely.

I *think* they did something with the tail lights so that they don't look like a set of submersible trailer lights off a shelf at the Farm and Fleet.. there is a slight change to them. And I loved the previous Monte's interior -- I love this one even better!

Nice looking. I wonder how it goes compared to the Grand Grix GXP considering the weight difference of a coupe.

i agree entirely. Your ride is nice, but the exterior of the new monte looks too much like the 05, which was already kind of dated. I actually think the new front end makes the car look less sporty.

an 06 impala coupe ss would be much more modern looking in my opinion.

of course, it could just be the dirt on it thats making me think this way

That is a sharp looking car. Makes you wonder why anyone would get a Solara.
