Just bought it - 2000 Mercury Cougar
By 2ltPaetz - September 11 - 10:00 amI just got this vehicle yesterday. I bought a 1999 honda passport 2 months ago and hated it. So far I really like the cougar. The acceleration is great, better then my 2000 VW GLX with the VR6. The VW has a hesitation when you give it gas before the power kicks in. The cougar responds quicker. I was supprised to see all the poor reviews,as I really like this car, so far. The only problem Ive noticed so far is when the ac is on the engine cuts out on power when driving at a constant speed. Like a power surge, but in reverse. This is a little annoying. I only wish it had a moon roof like the passport and jetta.

Love My Cougar - 2000 Mercury Cougar
By Deb - September 25 - 6:53 pmI loved my 2000 Cougar from the minute I slipped into the bucket seat. Its high performance and handling made this V-6 five speed a blast to drive. Its been five years and 100K miles and I hate to think about having to trade it in.

So-so car - 2000 Mercury Cougar
By Zach - July 11 - 9:30 pmThis was a very nice car. The first day we bought it off the lot we got ours brand new and havent had too many problems with it. Only a few things here and there. Car has a sleek design and it is fun to show off and just go for a cruise. The gas mileage is a little low but better than some of the new cars today. It was a great buy and soon it will be my sons car!

Love my Cougar! - 2000 Mercury Cougar
By Wandawoman99 - May 4 - 10:00 amIn fact I love it so much, I am about to trade it in on a brand new one! I have never had any problems out of my 2000 cougar. It has been a fun reliable car for me. I am looking to buy the 2002 Anniv. Special real soon! So you can go look up my little Blue trade in and get you a really good car!

Decent Car - 2000 Mercury Cougar
By Dustin - March 16 - 9:20 pmThe Cougar is a fun, sporty car, so it turns tightly, rides stiffly, and the 5 speed manual shifts smoothly. But I have been unimpressed with the build quality. I changed my grille, put a new driver side mirror on, and ran subwoofer cables, so I have taken apart a lot of the car. Almost everything snaps together! You know what holds the bumper on? Plastic pins. Most everything is plastic, especially the dash. And oh, what a noisy, squeaky dash it is, too. Drives me crazy. All in all, Id say the Cougar is a decent car, but the build quality worries me, and I am going to soon upgrade to something more reliable and better quality.

I Love My Cougar! - 2000 Mercury Cougar
By Lizzy - February 28 - 10:00 amI love this car! I was a little disappointed with the engine, I figured a car that sporty looking would have an equally sporty engine. Ive heard that the Cougar has acceleration problems. I guarantee you that everyone who says that drives an automatic. I have the I4 engine and I have never had problem accelerating. Get the manual! But this car is unique, and you dont see too many of them out there, making me just that much prouder of my car!
