Overview
The 1997 Monte Carlo is available in two trims: the LS and Z34. The LS comes standard with a 3.1-liter 160-horsepower V6, while the Z34 has considerably more power with a 3.4-liter 215-horsepower V6. Each car gets mileage commensurate with its power level: 20 city/29 highway for the LS and 17/26 for the Z34.
Drivers love the sleek styling for the mid-size car, as well as its dependability. A few complaints arose around the engine compartment, with a lack of working space being the main gripe.

Reviewed a 1997 Chevrolet LS FWD on Dec 10, 2008
acceleration when i need it (it still has a kick in it considering its an 11 year old car)... braking is good... and handling is great (considering it is a more sportier car) only 53K miles the one problem ive seen on this model and year is rust under the gas cap door where the bumper meets the rear quarter panel mine is a sweet red color (my red machine) black interior which is good. the cost of ownership is fairly good it has i think a 14 gallon tank and i get anywhere from 250 to 315 mpt (miles per tank) 400 if i take highway to school everyday. this car is fun to drive... b/c i know its limits i would definitely recommend this car to anyone that loves sportier cars.

The 200 hp DOHC engine has plenty of power. Handling was good. Comfortable inside. Very large trunk with fold down rear seats. CRAPPY brakes, 4 wheel discs I would have upgraded for sure if I were to have kept the car. I would say it was a fun car to drive.

Great car, very dependable. Best car I have ever owned. Good get up and go for having a smaller engine. Very low maintenance and great gas mileage. Good car to just go out and cruise the streets. Recommend for anyone.
