I forgot about the Monte! And it looks like the Impala in '06 will offer a v8.

I would just like to see GM step up and do something special with it. Look what our options are from them for a V8, rear wheel car - a truck (have a '04 Tahoe), Corvette (a lot of money), GTO, and a Cadillac CTS-V (I drove a friend's CTS-V and it rocked, but again a lot of money). My family will be in the market for a new ride sometime soon ('bout time to get rid of the DeVille - the "old man car") and I'm just not seeing anything on the GM side that fits the bill. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Clint Hooper Sent: Tuesday, August 30, 2005 9:08 PM To: The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] Re: Chevelle-list Digest, Vol 25, Issue 73 I don't think any offense was taken,Ron. The 04 GTO was kinda bland. Don't the 05 models have the new scooped hood? The new 400hp LS2 engine doesn't hurt anything,either.
