Default Beat up NASCAR MC

Saw this on ebay. By the pictures it looks like it really wasn't cared for. Has a $15,000 bid on it.

They could have atleast cleaned the engine off.

I like wheels and the seats but there is not a side air bag, or sunroof... Looks like a big fat person was driving it....

I remember when I was looking at these cars I was considering a white and orange creamsickle one. It had 200 miles on it and they wanted only $25,000. They come with flowmasters and no resonator...but the pipe they welded in is aluminized steel....It seems these cars were made differently from car to car. Some had "MONTE CARLO" printed on the front fascia, sometimes in different print. Different wheels, different grilles...And I think that company is out of business.

I hate that fake carbon fire they have on the dash. Our Saturn is littered with it and it looks so ricey.

Yeah that interior is filthy, you would think the seller would want to put clean pics up. And it's already had 4 owners

I've seen a few other MC's like this like Count was saying with different wheels and grilles. 1000 were modded like this which is a 1000 too many .

They are pretty cheesy though just a fake hood scoop, different wheels, flowmaster mufflers and some badges. Found this one at cardomain
