Most sporty coupes are small, lightweight, two-door coupes or hatchbacks with a cramped rear seat.
And while sporty coupes often appeal to younger, single buyers who want something small, cheap and sporty, the mid-size Monte Carlo appeals to more mature buyers who want a roomy interior, a smooth ride, and a quiet cabin. Unfortunately for the Monte Carlo, most of these latter buyers also want four doors. The market for big two-door coupes has been declining for a number of years, and the Monte Carlo is one of the last big coupes on the market. The 2000 Monte Carlo LS has a 180 horsepower 3.4 litre OHV V6 engine, replacing the 160 horsepower 3.1 litre V6 of the previous Monte Carlo. The sportier Monte Carlo SS has a 200 horsepower 3.8 litre V6, the same engine in the 1999 Monte Carlo Z34.
