Were talking about the 02-04's I believe thats the years they were made. I havent driven a new one yet and I dont know of anyone who has one, but I heard they were pretty quick.

 

the 4th gen (83-88) SS's were better than the last gens made

1985 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS 7.8 15.9

2002 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS 8.6 16.6

keep in mind monte's only come in auto's.. i used to own an 88 and it moved fast for its weight (~4000lbs)

they would have been real competitors in the 80's muslce car war if GM had put 350's in them

 

I know the mid 80's are faster than the newer SS' non S/C. I think the S/C ones would give the old SS' a good run. You know whats funny, is there was a guy I worked with at Walmart that owned a 98 Monte Carlo, and it was the Z34 edition or whatever is was called, and I was tellin him that my first car was gonna be a 5.0 fox body with 5spd, and he was swearin up and down that he would smoke me, it was some of the funniest **** I've ever heard.

 

yeah the SC'd versions make 60hp more than the old 80's 305 lol

either way it should have came with a 350 [:@] lol

Z34=slowest pos's ever made

 

Didnt they have the same engine as the 02-04's, just the different body style?

 

i want to see the times on the new monte carlo ss's, seem pretty quick (well hopefully with 4000 lbs)

 

Even better...give them the same setup as a Grand National !!!!
