  Most fun to drive car ever - 2000 Mercury Cougar
  By asah - January 20 - 11:53 am

  This Car is a must buy for anyone looking for a car. I bought mine new in Feb of 2000. Ive only had the issue with the fuel pump recall. The cougar only came out with this bodystyle for 4 yrs which makes it not your everyday driver. Its a quick little car with tons of potential for the motor.

  So Unique! - 2000 Mercury Cougar
  By Diana Wilson - January 15 - 10:00 am

  This car handles better than any other car I have had so far, plus it is not slow whatsoever. I have had this car for over a year now and it still runs great! Not to mention this car is absolutely beautiful!

  Not for what you think your getting!! - 2000 Mercury Cougar
  By usarfilly - December 25 - 4:36 am

  I bought my car after my deployment to Iraq...and I wanted something sporty- Which I got, but not much else. Major issue is the engine build. Your engine light goes on for unknown reasons and after fixed comes right back on. Ive replaces the alternator once and now have had trouble with the starter and the fly-wheel. So my engine sometimes doesnt start. Labor on these cars is outragious due to the unaccessability to fix what should be simple things. No other major problems accept the trunk wont unlatch with just pushing the button in your car - you have to use the keyless entry and be sure you double click that button withing 6 inches.

  Beauty is only skin deep - 2000 Mercury Cougar
  By Shawn M - October 31 - 10:00 am

  This car looks great and handles great. It lacks power and acceleration especially with the auto trans. The gas mileage is horrible at about 14.2mpg in the city. Ive had various mechanical problems including fuel pump, brake pads wearing out every 12k miles, faulty tires and more. The service is terrible and takes FOREVER. I would not recommend the 2000 Cougar to anyone unless all you want is to look good.

  Oh my Kitty - 2000 Mercury Cougar
  By Cougar owner - September 18 - 10:00 am

  I purchased my Cougar in April 2000. Most problems related to service but I did take the car back about 4 times the first two weeks for radio problems. A few months afterward, I took it back because of bubbles that caused paint chips. The car has had several recalls that I knew nothing about until a year later. The most recent problem was the RPM revs in neutral. Passengers are not crazy about the back seat, so this car is for the selfish...few riders and no little kids! The car seat does not fit properly in the back. I like the looks, but I am not completely satisfied. I wont be buying another Cougar...neither will I buy another Mercury.

  I Love My Cougar!!!!! - 2000 Mercury Cougar
  By fsugirl - September 15 - 10:00 am

  I have owned my Cougar for nearly 4 years now and I have never had a problem. I brought it in for a couple of recalls and I just had my brakes done at 35000 miles, which is all fairly normal, other than that I have had no problems with it. She drives great, looks great, and Im sad that they discontinued it.

  Fun car - 2000 Mercury Cougar
  By tjl - September 6 - 12:36 am

  I just bought my 2000 Cougar V6 with every option it could possibly have. It had some of the problems I read about in these reviews like stalling and the electrical but I brought it to a Mercury dealership 7 times till they got it right. They replaced the fuel pump, egr valve several vaccum lines. Every once in a while the engine light comes back on and its just a vaccum line came off the egr valve. Just put it back on and the light turns off after a cycle or 2. Its been running great since I just put a Cougar banner across the windshield and an aem ram air intake. It gave the car a mean growl to it. Now Im just waiting for my new exhaust..

  Great all around - 2000 Mercury Cougar
  By OCEAN - August 29 - 3:56 am

  weelll i got the 2000 v6 mercury cougar, and i have to say. its very appeling to the eye, great handling and i love the exterior and interior. Ive added a few things to my cougar to make it a bit to, well how can i say this, so it could look more like a true sports car. ITS look beutiful. Ive added a kit, spoiler, rims, z3 fender, and a top of the line pantjob. with these improvement the mercury cougar beat the celica, eclipse,civc and probable any other mid-size sport car
