That is pretty good for the monte. That is still one of my favorite cars. I love driving my dad’s SS. It is defintely an awesome cruiser though and a lot of fun to drive. It was mine until I sold it to my dad when I went to college. But still has it so I drive it whenever i get a chance. ---

i think the metro will already beat the monte… 3800lbs/180hp = 21.1111 lbs per hp 1600lbs/100hp = 16 lbs per hp 21.111 \> 16 The metro wins on paper. But the monte has the RWD and torque advantage in real life. Ill put $20 on the metro if Blanyer can launch it right. ---
