It took the Eighties to bring about possibly the best name for a car: the Aerocoupe. The Aerocoupe was built to compete with the revamped Ford Thunderbird. However, only 200 were made.
For the rest of us, there was the 1986 Chevrolet Monte Carlo in its full glory. The 305-ci, small-block V8 provided the power that consumers and NASCAR fans had come to expect from the Monte Carlo.
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 1986 Chevrolet Monte Carlo express strong appreciation for its power and performance. Many highlight the enjoyable driving experience and the iconic status of the model. However, the common complaint is concerning the poor gas mileage. Despite its performance capabilities, some owners find issues like hard starting in winter and the need for cosmetic upgrades."
I Love this Car, I hate i did an A/C delete. Ilove that its lowered. Enjoy the Engine Power. Descent Interior, Magnaflow exhaust, 4" Drop in the front 3.25" in the rear, 2 Kicker CVX 12" Subwoofers, !000 Memphis PR1000 Amp, 4gauge power and ground, 12 gauge Speaker wire, Pioneer 8400 Headunit
August 23, 2014I'm the original owner of this fine 1986 Monte Carlo LS. The best car I ever owned. It's totally stock with a 305 V8 4 bbl. Great performance, nice ride.
March 5, 2008Like: that its an SS. Posi rearend and turbo 400 trans, interior isnt bad. Dislike: Paint is rough, needs some bodywork(previous owner was clueless when it came to bodywork) needs some better wheels and a bigger rear tire, and needs an engine.

April 6, 2008we ran this car for 115000 miles or so and only spent a couple grand in repairs , so it was a pretty good unit ... 305 4bbl ran pretty good after some tweeking to the electronic Q-jet carb , true duals and a fresh air hood , 90 mph in the quarter mile was attainable ... wish it had a posi-trac , 3.73 gears lit up right rear tire for a hundred feet or more on concrete .... this car handled with the best of them and rode pretty good too .
September 30, 2013this thing is such a beast. said to be the best motor that general motors ever made. it was my grandpa's car and its' being passes through the family. the only downside is the gas mileage it gets but other than that its awesome. its got a small block 305 chevy original motor v8 engine. it'll get up and go but also real comfortable. i love this car.
August 6, 2009Owned it since I was 16. It is a white SS with a burgundy interior. It is set up as a Pro-Touring car with a 383 small block, Richmond 6spd, Ford 9"rear, and Wilwood disc brakes all around. I will never sell it!
October 14, 2009Small block chevy 305, rochester 6 barrel carb, turbo 350 4 speed automatic, hooker headers and custom magnaflow dual exhaust. overall its a great car and definatly represents the heartbeat of america very well. with about 350rwp its a car that goes
June 30, 2009LOUD. Great sound and power. 420hp is enough to have some fun on the road. Got it for 5 grand, got 12 thousand invested. Fun car to drive and a great way to burn gas fast. Just need better brakes with cammed engine.
