Overview & Reviews

New colors spruce up the outside, and all Cougars get the formerly optional Convenience Group (cruise, remote keyless illuminated entry and rear wiper/washer) as standard equipment. Evidently, the Zn (Zinc Yellow) feature car from 2001 failed to get buyers' pulses up, so Mercury tries again for 2002 with the XR package, which includes special red or black paint, a rear spoiler, a fake hood scoop and special logos. The Cougar C2 feature vehicle makes a return engagement for 2002. Sadly, the shelved Cougar S never materialized.

• Unique styling, well-tuned suspension, large cargo area.

  OK for the money - 2002 Mercury Cougar
  By whome? - April 14 - 10:00 am

  This car is definately a looker. The C@ pkg really adds to the look. DO NOT plan to have more than 2 people in it! Gas mileage is very good. The car handles curves extremely well. The engine is sluggish on start, but does well once on the road. Make sure you watch your blind spots - this car provides several.

  Pure Sweetness - 2002 Mercury Cougar
  By Hazza - March 13 - 10:00 am

  I have a 1999 cougar. I love it. Three reasons why. Its duribility is great. I have had no problems with it at all. Two, style is manditory! This ride takes the Mustang, Integra, and Civic, and tosses it to the curb. A car can not look any better (stock) then this. Number three, Affordibility. Im a seventeen year- old and I dont exactly make millions. This car fits perfectly in the wallat of anyone.

  If cars like GM could have as beautiful as Mercury cougar, Id buy one. Look how the car stand exterior and interior and tell me your car is better looking than this one. No one even come close... Poor marketing made this wonderfull car suffer.

  SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET - 2002 Mercury Cougar
  By junglewank - December 17 - 2:00 am

  When I was looking for a car I had never thought that a cougar would be the one. But when I saw the new XR package I knew I had found the car I was looking for. So far I have nothing but great things to say about the car; it drives great, looks great and is an awesome car for picking up chicks. The stereo system is also great and the leather seats are so comfortable. The car has great steering and makes tough, sharp right turns easy. This is a great car worth every penny spent.

  2002 Mercury Cougar V6 Sport - Thumbs Up - 2002 Mercury Cougar
  By Caladan - August 25 - 10:00 am

  For what it is, a 2 door (plus hatch) sport coupe, I am very pleased with the 2002 Mercury Cougar. Its not a car for everyone, but I like it. A sporty look inside and out, but is still fairly economical and reliable. Handles well around town or on the Interstate. The car is so smooth it hardly seems like youre going fast when the speedo reaches the higher numbers. Fold down split rear seats make for ample cargo room in the rear of the vehicle. No mechanical problems in 10,000 miles and the dealer has treated me very well during routine maintenance. This car is a real bargain if you want something fun, reliable and economical.

  Beautiful Cat - 2002 Mercury Cougar
  By Michael - August 1 - 9:53 pm

  Notable information about the Cougar: -The engine was designed by Cosworth. They also design engines that go in formula one cars. Pretty respectable. -The Cougar introduced fords new Edge design. Notable among this is that the cougar is a blend between American and European design. The hatchback styling is European, the high displacement high torque engine is american muscle. It was designed to be at home on the twisty nuburing. -Ford discontinued it because the Cougar dances around the Mustang. Ford wanted to sell Mustangs because theyre in keeping with the all american Ford image. They also sold them for $20K more, the same thing was done to the Thunderbird. Twice.

  2002 Merc Cougar - <3 - 2002 Mercury Cougar
  By mielejam - July 26 - 11:32 am

  I LOVE my car. It is, for the most part, reliable. It has had its share of repairs, including alternator, rear wiper wiring, and is currently in the shop to have the transmission resealed. My moon roof stopped working while the alternator was going, but works just fine now. This car is in great shape for going on 9 years old, and is fun to drive. It gets decent gas mileage and has had no significant breaks until now. :)
