1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo LS review from North America
"On top of its nie design this is a very relaible car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water pump at 140,000 died
Transmission at 170,000 died.
General comments?
This car is fantastic. Very reliable and a nice looking car as well. I have never had to worry about it ever having a mechanical problem at all. Even the computer systme works great after so many years. (knock on wood).
The car isn't flashy as an Acura Legend, but, it sells for about 2/3 the price. I don't need the status symbol. I just want a nice v6 car to cruise in on a sunny day. I plan on buying a new one once this one does eventually go, but for now there just isn't any need. As a result it saves me $450+ monthly car payments!
