The insurance people are idiots if thats what they think...
In 2006 there WAS an LS, LT (1,2 and 3), LTZ, and SS. The LS came with Steels and wheel covers. 1LT's came stock with 16inch aluminum painted wheels, and 2LT's came stock with the 16" aluminum wheel with optional 17" aluminums, 3LT's and LTZ's came stock with 17" aluminum wheels, and SS's came stock with 18" aluminum wheels.
If you have an LT, its not a package for the LS, the LT is an actual trim level, and all LT's came with aluminum alloy wheels wether it be 16" or 17".
Now, I THOUGHT that ONLY LS models had the turn *** for the climate control, and ALL other models, starting at the 1LT had the dual zone climate controls. I have a 1LT, and I HAVE the dual zone climate controls. Unless its an option that I just happen to have???
I'm pretty sure that ALL of the 3.5L V6's offered in the Monte Carlo were Flex-Fuel. I know mine is a LT, and I have the Flex-Fuel 3.5L.

Only the upgraded 3LT was the only trim level I have seen outside the LTZ and SS to get the duel climate controls.
I'm certain Space's former 3LT had 17" wheels and duel climate controls.
In 2007 with the Monte trim levels being reduced I think some of the LSs did get 17" wheels on them.
when i baught it new and when they were cleening it the messed up my original spoiler wich i didnt like for some reson i like the surfboard look to be honest with you. i had problems with the dual climat controlls they took it off and put this one on wich i didnt like but it works i think it droped the value of my monte badly when i seen my monte i loved it. i am glag that i dont have the stereo controlls on the seering wheel do to what i heared from what happened to the two others i spoke to about it on how they liked the option. they told me it works intermedeatly i dont know if you have that have you had problems with yours. besides i baught it new with 17 inch withdual climat but when the dealer fixed my ac they said it was the climat controll switch that was making it not work. i want the dual climat controlls and the 17 inch rims back badly.i dont want the insurance companys think it is a ls even though it is a lt. i know i have beater seats then a ls of my year and i do know the ls felt like it was flimsy to me the lt wich i have i like i just miss those two options that were on the car. dual climat controlls and the 17 inch rims not a steel type wich it has on it
Dear`John,
Do you still have your window sticker (since you bought it new >?)
It should state all your options & what model it is on the sticker.
I'm confused...~>
What was your MSRP
* Your Insurance Company should be able to do a vin check
to determine your model...,or check with your selling dealer ?
Let us know `ok
Good Luck

i still have the window sticker it is supose to have the better of the two cloth intereor 17 inch aloys dual climat controlls. traction controll is a option i didnt have them put it on the car it would have made it from 21,375 to 22,486k but the way it is i can get the traction controll switch with the fog light switch. i would need the dealer to update my pcm and the tcm for the traction controll to have it work with the switch. the only things that were an option that i didnt have them put on the car was the traction controll and the stereo volume controlls on the car those two were optional and i didnt get them wish i did.

They must have changed a lot of minor options and stuff for 2007. In 2006, my 1LT (which is 1 model up from base LS) came standard with traction control and ABS as part of the 1LT package.
Plus, I am pretty sure there was only 1 type of cloth interior which came standard in all LS and LT models. Leather was an option in LT models, and standard in the LTZ, and SS. (I think) But I am almost positive that all models with cloth seats had the same cloth seats.
And the base sticker price on my 1LT, including the optional side airbags ($660 option) was ~ $24,500

My car was $28,000 something new. That's why I accepted the car with 10,000 miles and jumped on the $17,000 the dealer wanted for it. It saved me $10,000.
There was one type of cloth, but two colors available in the 2006 Monte. Ebony and grey.
Titanium was the only leather color available.

`John, you have a rare/unique Monte Carlo LT
4-SureBelow is the standard equipment on a LT
Traction Control & Steering Wheel Audio Control
were standard equipment. Chevrolet stated that they didnot
have the option to delete these items.
Would you please post a picture of your Factory
MSRP Window sticker to resolve a dispute I have
with others on your Monte.
Thanks

I am positive that Ebony (almost black) or Titanim (the light grey color) were both options for the leather in 2006. I've seen 2006 Monte's with ebony leather...both were SS's.
