no, the Monte's are done come June... May 4th is the last day they can be ordered, and production stops in June. Then they begin to retro-fit the Oshawa plant to build the new camaro and rwd Impala...

My guess is they won't be worth much, so go out and enjoy them!

GM seems to kill cars when they get them right ... as the other thread said, took them 19 or so years this time.

No RWD!! They never got it right ... but the LS4 is bad ***.

The Late 80's Monte's where the best IMO.

You never never know. GM probably won't make any FWD V8's after the Impala goes RWD. I wonder how many Montes they sold cause I know I don't see many.

I read that the LS4 cars are some of the most powerful production FWD cars in the world, so maybe they will be worth something someday.......

who know whats going to happen since GM put a hold on developing the v8 rear drive cars other than camaro due to the increasing government demand on better fuel mileage. i read somewhere gm knows that their current designs for the v8 rear drive cars wont meet the new regulations unless they put the gas guzzler take on all of them like the vette.
Me on the other hand have been a fan of the 3rd gen montes, lightest weight montes ever made, even my 496 big block my 78 monte weighs in at 3400lbs with full carpet, stereo, AC and every option chevy put on them, now you try that with the 4th gen monte and your pushing nearly 4000lbs.
