I am looking to buy a 2002 Monte Carlo, where the seller says the only issue is that it won't go past 40mph. I have read that is usually a bad catalytic converter (part cost as low as $100). What do you think I would expect to pay for labor to put a new one in, and at 150k miles, do you think I would still have a good car, especially with that 3800 series V-6 in there?
