1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Z34 review from North America
"Great performance, and looks good too"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Only a vacuum leak, which was easily repaired with the use of a Hayes Auto Repair manual (the upper intake manifold gasket needed to be replaced). EASY, EASY, EASY!!!
Misfiring due too bad plugs, EASY, EASY, EASY!!!
General comments?
I love this car!!! I've had it over 6.5 years now and it's been a blast. I do wish that I could get more power from the engine seeing that they don't make a supercharger for this engine. It's too bad too because for what I am getting out of is actually really good, I just want MORE POWER!!!
Handling is great and that may be due to the fact that I installed a set of Khumo Ecsta ASX ultra high performance all season tires on it too. Get up and go is on par with many of the new so-called performance cars with superchargers and turbos on them.
Interior is very inviting and comfortable. That is until you have to sit an adult in the back seat behind you! I mean, it is a coupe for crying out loud.
