 The 2006 2007 Mercury Monterey comes with ESP, Electronic Stability Program, which corrects slides and is invaluable; it works with Brake Assist, which activates the pedal with full force when sensors say it's needed. The Modular Control System consists of the sound and navigation systems, both displayed on a console screen. The on-off/volume button is so small it will be very difficult to grip with gloves, in winter. There's another small button for tuning both radio and navigation, which works like a teensy joystick. You can preset 10 radio channels from a keyboard, although if you have that many favorite radio stations you need a life. There are no less than four power ports in the cabin, front and rear. There are good storage compartments all over. It is a 2-door, 4-passenger convertible, or convertible sports car, available in 3 trims, ranging from the GS to the GTS.
The 2006 2007 Mercury Monterey closest competitors include the Chrysler Sebring Convertible, the Toyota Camry Solara, and the Volkswagen New Beetle Convertible. Upon introduction, the GS is equipped with a standard 2.4-liter, I4, 147-horsepower engine that achieves 23-mpg in the city and 31-mpg on the highway. The GTS is equipped with a standard 3.0-liter, V6, 210-horsepower engine that achieves 21-mpg in the city and 28-mpg on the highway. A 5-speed manual transmission with overdrive is standard on both trims, and a 4-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is optional. The car offers a power soft top with a glass rear window, something that few sport convertibles can boast. Other exterior features on the car include: alloy wheels, color-keyed rear spoiler, power sideview mirrors, and two-speed variable intermittent windshield wipers with mist control.
The 2006 2007 Mercury Monterey has a quite bit more headroom. The interior holds 4 passengers with bucket seats, rear heat ducts, height adjustable drivers seat with lumbar
support. Additional features include 1 touch power windows and remote power locks. The suspension is four-wheel independent suspension with a front and rear stabilizer bar.Options of convenience are cruse control and power steering. The tilde-adjustable steering wheel is great for driving
comfort. It delivers 147 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and produces 158 pounds-per-foot of torque at 4,000 rpm. In the GT and GTS models, the Spyder boasts a 3.0-liter, cast-iron, SOHC, 24-valve V-6 engine that delivers 210 horsepower at 5,750 rpm and produces 205 pounds-per-foot of torque at 3,750 rpm. Its total passenger space, at 102.5 cubic feet, is only 6 percent short of the interior space of the full-size. Sable's interior feels huge, even for a mid-size car. The sedan offers a generous cargo space of 16 cubic feet. The station wagon has 38.8 cubic feet of space with the rear seat up and a cavernous 81.3 cubic feet with the seats down.
