Official Pics: 06 Monte Carlo


Unfortunately, they only changed the front end to match the new Impala. No interior pics, but it should be much better.

Not bad, it doesn't look as bad as the Impala.  But, as with the Impala, I always liked the Monte Carlo (except for interior) and this is definitely a downgrade, imo.

I still don't like it. The rear is still ugly, and the front doesn't blend. I haven't liked the Monte Carlo for a while though, so this doesn't change my feelings towards it.

GM needs new designers.

Interior looks similarly facefifted: some new materials and a new steering wheel, but the same basic design.

Whoop-de-do. At least if the materials are new (some of them you said) it will be a higher quality ugly interior.

Here's a better pic:



They also changed the instrument panel, but the basic dash design is unchanged.

Oh well. Maybe they'll pull a Nissan Altima on us and update it mid-cycle.

That IS what you're seeing.

Not going to happen. GM didn't touch the current Monte in its six years, I'd expect about the same from this one.
