  Still The Best Deal on the Lot - 2007 Ford Taurus
  By flin1 - September 28 - 2:00 am

  Ive had my SE for a year or so now and its still the best value of any used car I found. Its funny that the editors or Edmunds rate this car low cause it doesnt handle like a BMW or Acura but it starts, gets pretty good mileage, has pretty good acceleration, has a lot of room, good safety rating, kinda cool looking, American made, cheap parts that are easy to find, good visibility and head room, comfortable on the road. Sure its not exciting or flashy but its very easy to live with and does its job very well. Remember your last high school reunion when you saw that girl you had a crush on and she was fat and divorced three times? SE is that smart plain girl you married.

  You Wont Be Disappointed. - 2007 Ford Taurus
  By WhiteTaurus - July 22 - 3:28 am

  Skeptical of this car at first, Ive come to love it. Nearly 70k miles, and this car has never been to a mechanic for any major repair. A very reliable vehicle, with only one strange moment when the engine stalled at a stoplight. Fords Vulcan V6 makes 155 hp, and has been surprisingly quick when I pushed it. Fuel economy can be as high as 32 mpg on the highway, with an average of 24 mpg in the city. Ride comfort is decent. Interior is comfortable, with well designed instrument panels and easy-to- clean upholstery. Stereo is good, but the ability to install an MP3 player connection would make it great. Exterior styling is a little bland, but its grown on me.

  First thoughts since buying a used SEL - 2007 Ford Taurus
  By Pete - July 16 - 11:33 am

  My 1998 Mercury Sable GS, which I bought 3rd owner, for $1000, and lasted 4 years, had to go bye-bye. It was BEAT! but the engine and tranny were excellent. So what do I get my wife now?? We happily found a 2007 Ford Taurus SEL, sure it has 73G miles, but it runs and looks excellent. 2nd owner, was an old fellas car, did a lot of trips. Black exterior, Tan leather interior, all options I can see, power everything, sunroof, 6CD changer. And after a couple of trips we are averaging 31 MPG out on the Highway! WOW! Doesnt matter if windows and sunroof open or AC is on, same mileage. Ride is terrific for us. Nice seating. Roomy (I am 6-2 260!). Smooth at a Cruise locked 55 MPH. Quiet.

  Good, Basic Vehicle - 2007 Ford Taurus
  By TaurusSaurus - July 6 - 12:38 pm

  Purchased in early 2007, with 20k miles. Have driven it heavily for 3+ yrs and have had one issue, clogged windshield wiper fluid pump (~$20 @ Auto Zone). Despite claiming to only have 153HP it performs much better, quick acceleration, good stopping power, smooth shifting, etc. A good, BASIC car for every day driving - ton of room for people/cargo, decent gas mileage, quick cooling ac, quick to heat in winter, cheap parts, and easy ability to perform your own maintenance. At 70k Ive put on new tires and brakes, a new serpentine belt (15 min job if you know what youre doing), & stay up to date with oil changes/other maintenance. Good car, and a lot cheaper than equivalent.

  My second Taurus - 2007 Ford Taurus
  By Taurus2 - May 25 - 7:42 pm

  Bought my 07 Taurus with 72,000 miles. I like my Taurus. Smooth comfortable ride. Roomy inside with high ceiling. Good gas mileage. Beautiful leather interior. Only problem is the radio. Lots of AM static. Dealership cannot figure out problem. My first Taurus had a better stereo system. My 1st Taurus, a 2000, had 209,000 miles when I sold it. Both of my Taurus are very reliable vehicles.

  A Very Good Car! - 2007 Ford Taurus
  By Ford Buyer - April 23 - 2:19 am

  I bought my Taurus on Oct of 08 with 31000 miles on it. Im very happy with it. Its been very reliable and never lets me down. Very comfortable to ride in lots of power to out drive others if you use premium gas and keep the fuel system clean. I Average 22 on highways and 18 in City. Maintenance is very important for this car so keep everything updated. Tons of cargo space love the color of the exterior its gold ass metallic with Medium Pebble interior . I will recommend this car to friends and family.

  Cant beat the price - 2007 Ford Taurus
  By seanPA - April 16 - 10:53 am

  Bought used with factory warranty at 27k. Only issue was at belt replacement the dealer couldnt get it on right and it kept squeaking ok now though. I drive about 1k a week and it hasnt let me down. Now at just over 100k I have to say for 11 grand its the best value i have ever seen.

  Wont Start Sometimes - Why??? - 2007 Ford Taurus
  By MichiganDriver - February 1 - 4:11 pm

  I really liked my 07 Taurus for the first 9 months I owned it. I purchased it in Feb. 09 with 35,000 miles on it. I purchased an extended warranty also. During November 09 through now (Feb. 10) I have had issues with the car just not wanting to start! You can clearly hear it trying to start, but it just wont catch. In fear of it "flooding", I remove the key and wait a couple minutes before trying again. It seems to take 2-3 tries before starting properly. The dealership cannot figure out the problem since it does eventually start. This started to happen about once every other week but now about once a week. Hate the idea of possibly being stranded one day.

  could not find better car for the price - 2007 Ford Taurus
  By Great car - November 26 - 11:12 pm

  Had 24k miles when I purchased, now at 65K only one problem with A/C that was fixed with CPO warranty plus. Overall this is a reliable car and travels well. MPG on highway at 29 running at speed limit. No mechanical problems. I compared with Altima, Camry, and Accord V6 models, saved 40 - 50% in price comparison plus I am warranty covered to 100k miles.
