I'd say the Monte Carlo for the V-8. Although it saddens me that it's still FWD. It'll be cool when it gets RWD.

That's kind of an odd comparison. Wouldn't the Monty Carlo and the Grand Prix be a little bit more fair? I would think the G6 would be compared more to the Malibu

G6, I like shifting my own gears. Come 2007 and a RWD platform for the MC, this answer might change.

heh, kinda strange place to post, but ok hi.

Dont put a body kit on your car! I know, its your car, your money, but you can spend it on something so much better!
The kit will just be a hastle, you will probably bottom out, and it will get all scratched up. Its probably going to create drag too, slowing you down and decreasing your gas milage.

Thats your opinion and I respect that, but I personally (and almost every performance car enthusiest that I know, yes that does include everyone on this board) are mostly againts "show" mods, especially body kits. Try to think function before form.
