Overview & Reviews

New for 2003, the SEL trim level offers a unique instrument cluster with a satin-finish background, as well as Imola leather trimmed seats and dark wood trim. You can now get a real wood- and leather-trimmed steering wheel, and you'll want to note that power windows and locks, as well as tilt steering and floor mats, are standard on all models.

• Excellent value for the money, high level of safety equipment and crash protection, available as a sedan or a wagon.

• Rental car stigma, poor expected resale value, not as refined as most other midsize sedans.

  2003 Taurus SES Sedan - 2003 Ford Taurus
  By mwp201 - December 29 - 12:45 am

  I own a 2003 Taurus SES sedan. It is a great car..for two reasons..roomy and the price. I also LOVE the power for a 200 hp engine. I recommend this car for people who are on a budget and want the power.

  Ford SES - 2003 Ford Taurus
  By xpcdr4d - November 12 - 6:49 pm

  I bought this 03 Taurus SES about a month ago. So far I am very pleased. It cost me KBB wholesale from a rental car co and had 28K on it. Very comfortable driving and it got 31.5mpg on a recent trip to my amazement. Id buy another one in a heartbeat.

  My review - 2003 Ford Taurus
  By twintx - October 20 - 10:00 am

  This is my second Taurus. It is very dependable and reliable. I have never had major problem with either car. They also have 5 star safety rating which is important to me. Lots of room for a mid size car.

  I LOVE this car! - 2003 Ford Taurus
  By delsinger - June 1 - 2:00 am

  Ive only had this car for about 1/2-year but it has totally exceeded my expectations. I never expected to get a family car that was so comfortable, dependable and still visually appealing with a lot of features for such a small price. ($10,995 for an SES with 14,000 miles) We recently started looking at other cars in the same class for my husband but nothing has come even close to the value of the Taurus. A dealer offered us a 2003 Sebring which was a tight squeeze, not as visually nice and with less features with 14,000 miles on it for $17,000. We bust out laughing. Wed buy another Taurus instead and use the money we saved to pay off the first one!

  not so satiafied - 2003 Ford Taurus
  By RMOsborne - March 31 - 2:00 am

  The Taurus is lacking in head room, visability to the right of center suffers because the rear view mirror is too low. The rear suspension is very weak. The rearend squats with only mild acceleration. The rear sags when the trunk has anything in it or when adults sit in the back seat. The brakes arent very good, we had to have the rotors turned 3 days after we bought the car because of a pulsating brake pedal. The car is nice looking and it is fun to drive partly because it has a sunroof and I like to drive with it open. The stereo is awesome (Mach audio w/cd changer).

  Perfect Family Sedan - 2003 Ford Taurus
  By 8AMAKTA - March 25 - 2:00 am

  I traded in my 2001 mustang for this car, its been a blessing. My family needed the extra room for my newborn son and 4year old. My taurus has room for six which helps when you carry your friends or family. As a previous owner of a 96 taurus I love the way they drive and the space they have inside. Fuel economy is great and the A/C system is better than my 98 Honda Civic.

  This is my 2nd Taurus and I love the way it handles. The price was right for the features and the quality is there.
