This is how they were officially classified. Despite being sister cars, they were marketed completely differently
Lumina: Mid-size Family Sedan
Monte Carlo: Mid-size Luxury Sports Coupe (I have the 1995 Chevy passenger cars brochure which I believe labels the BMW 3 series as one of the Monte's competitors. Though it was a much closer competitor to Ford's RWD Thunderbird.)
I think it's a good option. the flame decals are a no though. I mean for people who want something different but don't know much about cars themselves. That's why Scion took off like they did because no one takes the time any more to do any research themselves and believes just what the media tells them. Which is why most people still think American cars are inferior. Yes other makes like GM, and Audi have offered similar options for years on specific cars (mostly cobalts/Ions/G5's/Pursuits and V8 cars from GM) but they don't advertise individuality as Scion does on every model. I think it'd be nice to go to a Chevy dealer, point to an Aveo sedan or hatch and say I want this this and this done under the hood with this body kit/lip kit while not voiding the warranty.
