No idea on who sells coilovers for the newer gen Montes, but there's always the DIY route if no one makes them off the shelf.

Yes, thanks to ZZPerformance, BC Racing makes a set of coilovers compatible with the 2000-2007 Monte Carlo > https://zzperformance.com/products/b...coilovers-3800

I was just in the phone with BC and they told me they didn’t have anything. Is there any others that compatible with my car?

Definitely not a 4th gen, that suspension is totally different. 5th gen fronts look similar in layout, but I'd be extremely shocked if they just bolted up. Rears are definitely different.

What I meant by DIY was actually piecing it together yourself. Buy threaded sleeves, cut off the stock spring perch, modify the upper mount, etc.
