Mercury Monterey
Overview
The 2006 Mercury Monterey is Mercury’s long-wheelbase luxury minivan
that joined the Mercury lineup for 2005 as the first of four new vehicles.
The Monterey takes styling cues from the Mountaineer SUV and combines luxury,
modern design and utility.
New for 2006
The 2006 Mercury Monterey features a standard wood-and-leather-wrapped
steering wheel and offers 17-inch 9-spoke bright machined aluminum wheels as
an option. Two new exterior paint colors are added: Dark Toreador Red
Clearcoat Metallic and Smokestone Clearcoat Metallic.
