The SS runs like high 15's its a freakin joke calling it a SS. The '95? not really sure..

the 95 will probably click off a low 17 and SS will likely stop the clocks at about a 16.5.

stick with what you got

PUT THE MONEY YOU'D SPEND ON THE MONTE INTO A 350 FOR YOUR CAMARO OR TO BUY A COMPLETE FORGED ROLLING ASSEMBLY FOR THE 305 AND SOME SPRAY:lala:

hey dont dog mcss's tony, they are awesome cars , with a stock l69 you will see anywhere from a 15.8-16.xx out of these cars , but watch out , you can pretty much squeeze anything into a gbody so a 383/406/502 is not uncommon on the street with these cars . but yeah your 1le will have no trouble with either

Great, now I feel nice and slow...

Well, I hope my G-body is a little more impressive. I actually like Montes but they are more what I consider "competition". Them and...f-bodies. To name a few. Anything that is a cool vehicle that is not a top priority of mine to own. Except for fart can users.

Well your Camaro would definitely waste the Monte SS, as the others have noted, but I love the look of those things. That would be a cool pair to have, the Monte and the Camaro.

Go here:

www.montecarloss.com

"Everything you wanted to know about a 4th gen Monte, but were afraid to ask".

I am a Monte owner and an IROC owner. I visit both sites daily...
