1999 Chevrolet Monte Carlo LS review from North America
"Comfortable, reliable everyday semi performance coupe"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing wrong has happened yet, except I've experienced a misfire, and there's more jolt than usual shifting into drive from neutral than normal.
General comments?
Handles nice for a semi performance coupe, though I'm disappointed with the styling, because it looks like the Lumina... overall better looking than Lumina with its alloy wheels, but still not all too attractive.
Very roomy and comfy on the inside with leather seats and moonroof, but an unattractive panel that's too... 'plasticky'
Performance sounds nice, but seems limited. It's quick enough up to 40-50, but won't dare go much faster in a hurry.
