I like these and the interiors because it's so 80's, but you'd need to use it on special occasions like to and from car shows only with MPG like that.

Lovely looking example of the 80's Monte Carlo but the interior is just 70's & really 'uncool' (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/down.gif)

Yep, I still like them though. (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/chiny.gif)

Anyone know what engines they came with? Was it just the 5.7?
