  • I love this car! - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    This is the first new car I have ever bought and I absolutely love it. I considered the Camry or the Altima, but the styling of the Milan really caught me. Plus I really wanted to buy American... so I did. I have been very pleased with the car so far.

  • Best car Ive owned to date - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    Was planning on an 07, but the 0% financing was too good to resist. Milan Premier has good acceleration (not best in class, but good)Color is Satellite Silver & 2 Tone Charcoal & Tan interior. Test drove(over night) Lincoln Zephyr. Slightly better Leather/Stereo system and THX Navigation system(very nice)just dont add up to a nearly $10K increase in price. Lincoln was quieter and had a "softer" suspension. The Milan is definately the "sportier" of the 2 cars. I looked at the Ford Fusion. It was nice, but I liked the nicer touches (2 tone leather etc.)that the Milan has. I feel I made a good choice. If the Montego had the 3.5 liter engine (due in 08)Then things might have been different.

  • Excellent alternative to Japanese models - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    This car is just a fantastic choice. I love this car. Ive had nothing but a very excellent experience owning this car since March. Absolutely zero quality issues. It rides like silk. It handles and looks like a more expensive European sports sedan. The combonation of the 6-speed automatic and the 3.0 liter 221HP V6 provides excellent acceleration. Especially anything over 35 MPH. The interior with the comfortable two-tone leather seating and the wood-grained dash gives it a look of a higher end European model. And for a similarly equipped Camry, Altima, or Accord, youll pay more, lots more in some cases. There is no better midsize car for the money than the V6 Mercury Milan Premier.

  • Great car for the money! - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    I considered a 2007 Camry XLE but one with the options I wanted was not available anywhere so I looked at the Milan. It doesnt have as many bells and whistles as the Camry (Bluetooth- enabled JBL stereo, dual-zone climate control, power passenger seat, etc.), but I like the interior styling better and have gotten many comments on the cars good looks. It looks like a more expensive car than it is and has a great ride to it while being fun to drive.

  • My Milan after 9 months - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    Ive had my Milan for 9 months now. I still am in love with it. My husband begs to drive it. I think he loves it more than I do! This is a large car (to me at least) but it still handles well and brakes wonderfully. Two problems Ive had are the lumbar support blew out and had to be replaced, and both visors pop out of joint when you fold them down. Other things Ive noticed are a very wide turn, loses a bit of road control if you accellerate out of a turn too quickly.

  • Looks so Luxury! - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    I was reviewing many cars in this class (accord, fusion, g6, etc.) and this by far was the best in design, style and performance. Im so impressed at the style of the interior. Its very classic and upscale and reminds me of the old Mercedes appeal. I purchased this car after Id had a lexus for 3 years and I can honestly say the drive and style was no more impressive than my Milan!: )

  • Green beauty - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    Fun to drive, fantastic handling. Bought the 4 cylinder for fuel economy. It has adequate zip. I got 34 mpg on a long highway trip through PA. Quieter than my 2003 Sable, handles like a smaller car, very maneuverable and yet with a very comfortable ride and more than adequate interior space. I am 6 foot 4 and I love the telescoping steering wheel.

  • best mercury yet - 2006 Mercury Milan

    I picked up my Milan this week with all the options. Its a great sedan -- very comfortable, sound system rocks, seems very well built with a great solid design.

  • Most bang for the buck - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    I went to the Detroit Auto Show to pick up a discount coupon for Mercury Montego but fell for the Milan instead, and bought one identical to the one on display at the auto show. In terms of value for dollars spent this is the best car Ive ever owned. For the last 10 years Ive felt that Ford (and GM) have tried to sell the least car for the most money. With the Milan I feel Ford has turned a corner. The Milan is loaded with standard features and useful optional features, very solidly built, classy inside and out. The six-speed transmission is smooth and acceleration is powerful when I need it to be. More than that the car is well thought out in virtually every way.

  • 06 Milan a hit with me! - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    Just picked up my new Milan and what a pleasure. The car feels rock solid on the road and is wisper quiet on the inside. You can actulally have a conversation at speed and not have to talk louder than usual.
