Montego VINs decoded with it

The price reference is the median of configuration medians, not the median of all active cars. Each configuration has equal weight. Configurations with at least 3 priced listings are used when available; otherwise the reference uses the configurations with a recorded price. Model years, mileage and condition vary. Open a model-year report below for its asking prices across all engines.

The 3.0L 6-cyl Montego: common questions

Which Montego years have the 3.0L 6-cyl?

2005–2007, without a break — 3 model years in our VIN decode, across 20 factory configurations and 5,730 VINs.

What does a 3.0L 6-cyl Montego cost?

$4,995 is a configuration price reference: the median of configuration medians, with each priced configuration weighted equally. It is not a listing-level median or a valuation of an individual car. The year-by-year ladder shows VIN and inventory counts; its links open model-year price reports covering all engines.
