Used 2006 Mercury Montego Sedan Consumer Reviews
Continental Replacement
A layperson's assessment of the 2006 Mercury Montego Premier AWD. I was looking for a replacement for a 1999 Continental; felt the Montego came the closest and I'm not disappointed. CVT transmission very smooth and satisfactory for passing. General driving --26.9 MPG after 2011 miles.
Huge trunk, seating high like SUV, Volvo safety!
This car has the biggest Trunk in the world for 2006 you can hold something 9 feet long because the front passenger seat folds flat rear seats fold flat it has a five star perfect rating for side impact and front offset crash it gets over 25 miles to the gallon on the highway it’s built like a Volvo on the same platform H ID lights this car is amazing we bought it with 187,000 miles transmission yes could you some work but up to now shifting pretty well.

Good Family Car
Just got my Montego a month ago. Nice family car, lots of room for the kids. While people have complained about the acceleration I think it is adequate however the CVT gives you the impression the car is not accelerating. Interior is very comfortable for a 6' driver. The perforated leather is a little cheesy. Drives and handles nicely and the Merlot color turns heads, nobody even knows what kind of car it is.

Have had no problems with this car, driver comfort is excellent, handles very well,gas consumption is as expected.CVT transmission very smooth. An overall pleasant automobile.
Worth Consideration
If you're not hung up on luxury car brand names then the Montego is a great alternative care choice. Roomy, solid feeling ride, good looking (although not in the class of some of the luxury brands), great cabin layout, pretty good stereo system, acceptable accelaration. Lots of bang for the buck! I get a lot of looks when I'm driving this car. I got it in the Merlot color. I switched from a 2003 Acura TL to the Montego. I considered the Avalon, the Azera, the ES330 and the TL, but decided to instead pocket the extra $3,000 to $6,000 those cars would have cost. I just rolled past 1,000 miles and I haven't regretted my choice.
