My only suggestion that it bears resemblance to the Cutlass is that it's an evolution to the Sabre, which was based off the Cutlass.  The Cutlass and Monte Carlo shared very similar rooflines at that period in time.  I personally think it looks a bit more Cutlass like, as the 3/4 windows are narrower, like the Cutlass.  But there is a lot of Monte Carlo in the design, specifically the monochromatic treatment and the longer trunk.  But the overall design seems to have a Buick/Olds look to it, IMO, and I don't think the Century taillights are completely random (there was a Century notchback coupe of that period, but the it's flat sided without the kick-up around the rear wheels).  Plus there's the Buick Century Turbo Coupe, which (although a fastback) shares a lot of similar design features, such as the lack of chrome, air dam and decklid spoiler.  Besides - what's wrong with saying it isn't 100% Monte Carlo?

Plus I think it's pretty obvious that GTA brands don't exactly follow their real life counterparts.  Just look at the Vapid brand.  Or how the minivan is one brand, but the identical cab is in another.
