1988 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS review from North America
"Another great example of beautiful AMERICAN MADE muscle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My speedometer cable broke after 1 yr.
General comments?
This is 1 mean machine.
Great performance overall, OK mileage.
Great handling, good suspension.
Lots of room under hood for modifications & bigger engines.
Small power ups go a long way on this car.
Rear end and undercarriage prone to rust if not kept up with.
