Since I've owned this car, nothing major has gone wrong.
The center console lid hinge has broken, but I have not fixed that. Frankly, it's much easier to find what I need in there with the lid out of the way.
I have noticed some hard shifts when shifting into drive from park or reverse, but it isn't all the time.
I love this car!
It looks great, runs great, and has awesome get up and go power. When getting on the interstate, I don't have to worry about having enough distance to get up to speed, I just give it a little punch and I'm there.
The handling is great, sometimes the ride is a bit rough, but only on really bumpy roads and such.
Parts and accessories are not too expensive and are easy to find.
I agree with you, I love my z34 V8 engine and I love the power it packs in it. My boyfriend loves it more than I do.
I can depend on my Monte Carlo to get me from point A to point B, and it never really gave me any problems. If I need parts, they are easy to find and to fix. My z34 is the bomb...
I have a dark bluez34 with leather interior and a sun roof. I love Chevy.. call me the chevy gal.
