  Very nice car - 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
  By toegar - September 9 - 10:00 am

  My car has been a pleasure to drive. It has the pick up when you need it. It takes corners tight and with ease. The car gets a lot of compliments from stangers. Im 47 and never had this much fun with a car. The car has had no no major problems. I store it in the garage over the winter.

  By Obdulio Santory - May 13 - 1:36 pm

  I find it to have good handling and very comfortable to drive. It has a good pickup when I need it. The brakes are great for quick stops.

  No defects - 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
  By carolcarlo - August 10 - 1:10 pm

  This is the first car that I have ever owned that did not have to go back to the dealership for something to be fixed. I have not had any problems with my Monte in over 3 years. I love my dependable car. Its definitely the "Full Monty"!

  kelzar - 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
  By kelzar - July 14 - 2:00 am

  This is an excellent vehicle. The reason for the lower score in the comfort area? -- the seat belt is not a comfortable fit. I use a "seat belt adjuster" (2 dollars and change) to tolerate. Other than that: Perfect performance, very good mileage and a fun car to drive. It is a buyers market for cars these days with the rebates and low financing... If I did decide to trade, it would be for another Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS.

  Fun Car - 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
  By Michauds - December 2 - 2:00 am

  Love my Monte Carlo. This car looks great and is a joy to drive. I got my SS model with the sport package which added to the great appearance. Only draw back has been with the fuel injection system which Ive had to have serviced 3 times already.

  Must Have a MONTE! - 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
  By LOVE MONTE SS - September 18 - 7:06 pm

  Every Monte Carlo SS I own I get looks! I bought it used with about 62K and am now at about 114K. I have a lead foot! I havent yet had any problems with my brake system. I did have my 4th gear (overdrive) go out on me. Ive had to replace the Cat. Converter twice. Am being told by a family member that Chevy didnt build the exhaust system big enough for the bigger engines (and the way I drive). But if I blow one a year they are still covered under warranty! My fog lights dont work, never had a problem with seats, window motor was replaced, normal maintenance stuff done, oh leather pulled away from side air bag.

  This is nearly a perfect car!!!! - 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
  By DBrent - April 26 - 2:00 am

  This car has been outstanding! Ive owned way more cars than any one person should, and it is without doubt one of the best built cars Ive ever owned, second only to my K-Series Pickup. The only problem Ive encountered came at 60,000 miles, a $7 temp sensor went bad. Chevy needs to take a look at the drive train in the recently retired Camaro. This car with that drive train under it would without a doubt be the perfect family car, as it is a little on the heavy side for a V6. The interior is solid, roomy and comfy. When the options are maxed out (leather, sunroof, OnStar, etc.) this truly is a very luxurious car.

  LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!!! - 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
  By montegirl - February 15 - 10:00 am

  I love everything about this car, from the body style to the engine. After owning this car for 3 years I still enjoy driving it. I own the metallic jade green SS 2 dr model, and never want to part with it. This car is fun to drive and with the sunroof open and Michael Jackson on the radio, there is no greater joy!
