Default Making fun of a Monte SS

I ususally don't post easy kills, but this one was amusing. I was heading home from my girlfriends house last night around 1230PM. I was doing 80 or so with the Passport 8500 giving me the 'all clear'. I pass a new Monte SS in the fast lane and just mind my own business. Suddenly I see him gaining on me, then passes. He slows down and does it again, and again. 4th time he pull this **** I hit it when he was about 5 cars ahead. I pass him at warp speed and put 1/8 of a mile between him and me, at which point I was doing 135. Then he catches up after I slow down, and starts the **** again, but this time I just start to **** with him. I put the car in D and just start to floor it and let off.....just enough so he could not pass me. He gets to a slower car and gets behind me. I jump into the fast lane with him 2 cars back and just start to slam on the breaks and gas, making my car bob......and he still did not have the juice to pass. He starts to flash his brights at me and honk. I just laugh and tear off, take my off ramp and never see him again. Loser

What a tool. Must think since he has a SS and your in a Z28 he is superior.... Even though he is in a V6 economy car...Good job showing him his place.

no one could be stupid enough to think that a stock SS monte carlo could beat an SS, it's obvious that he's done a little to the car at least with the hood, grill and exhaust...morons

I killed one too! It was funny because he ran up beside me looked at me, punched it. I downshifted to 3rd and took off.

Ricers think they can beat anything with four wheels . The more cylinders, the easier it is for them to beat. I have seen 2 "Riced" out Montes.

Those things are pitiful excuses for the name Monte Carlo. I'd love to have an older '70 monte. My dad had one when he was young, they're nice.

Man, I can't stand the new Monte's either... Not only do they look bad, but they are 6 cylinders and front wheel drive, WTF is up with that? Oh yeah, and if it was at night, it was 12:30 AM, not PM(assuming you live in the northern hemisphere)

Before I bought my Z28 I had a '96 Z34.....nice car, but a boat....and definately not fast. I certainly was smart enough not to try and race any LS1s/LT1s. I don't see anything wrong with the new Supercharged Montes......at least nothing wrong with them that's not wrong with a GTP. And face it....I'd rather have a 2004 supercharged Monte than a 1985 Monte SS with that turd of a 305 in it.

I like the new MCSSs. I think the 04 Supercharged SS would make a pretty nice daily driver.

Hell yea they are ugly as hell. They look like a turd going down the road. Ive had a few newer Monte Carlos rev at me at stop lights. Its always funny when I let them take off about 3 car lengths than mash the "GO" pedal and blow right past them laughing.

ummmm I don't quite agree with you here. The old Montes can be made to look quite menacing. Take out the 305, drop in a healthy 383 with a Weiand 144 blower on it with full exhaust and drag suspension, and I gurantee it will make most LS1 owners think twice before taking it on.

Just about anything with those above modifications would be quite menacing......I was talking about more of a stock vs. stock comparison

I'd probably bet an 04 Supercharged SS will whip up on an 80's MC SS. I mean, the L69 in those wasn't a bad engine compared to the rest of the carb'd 305's, it's not like it's going to be the best performer, especially with that 200r4. I do have a soft spot for the Aerocoupes for some reason.

Oh yeah, Stock for stock the 305 Monte would have its *** handed to it. **** a VTEC Civic can propbably give it a good run. As far as menacing goes, I saw one at a car show all blacked out with a blower sticking though the hood. Looked like the Intercepter from Mad Max. No new Monte can look like that.
