Monte Carlo

The Chevrolet Monte Carlo is a two-door coupe that was manufactured and marketed by the Chevrolet division of General Motors. Deriving its name from the city in Monaco, the Monte Carlo was marketed as the first personal luxury car of the Chevrolet brand. Introduced for the 1970 model year, the model line was produced across six generations through the 2007 model year, with a hiatus from 1989 until 1994. The Monte Carlo was a variant of the Pontiac Grand Prix throughout its production.
From 1970 to 1972, the Monte Carlo rode on the unique "A-Special" platform with the Grand Prix, then switched to the standard A-body intermediate chassis from 1973 through 1977. For 1978, the Monte Carlo line underwent downsizing, but was still considered a midsized coupe. The rear-wheel-drive A-body platform of this generation of Monte Carlo was redesignated as the G-body when GM's front-wheel-drive A-body cars were introduced for the 1982 model year. After an abbreviated 1988 model year, the Monte Carlo was replaced by the two-door Chevrolet Lumina....
