This Year's Model Updates:

For 2008, a keyless entry keypad is standard on the Mercury Milan, and there are a number of new options. Among these are a reverse parking sensor, the Mercury "Sync" multimedia system (which integrates devices such as cell phones and MP3 players into the vehicle's controls) and upgraded interior ambient lighting. The Sync system and the ambient lighting, however, will be introduced later in the model year.

Pros:
  • Roomy interior, athletic handling, smooth ride, available all-wheel drive, competitive price.
Cons:
  • Engines are down on power and refinement, stability control is not available, some mediocre interior plastics.

    A great car that is dependable and fun to drive. Gets about 26 mpg all around and on the highway regularly gets 32- 33 mpg. A solid choice.

  • Better value than Imports - 2008 Mercury Milan
    By -

    Driven this Milan for 3 weeks and it is a car that you just cant get enough of! 4cyl. w/ 5 speed auto has very good power even with 4 adults. Avg. 28.6 mpg with under 1000 miles on car. The fit/finish is great and with 17" wheels this car is very attractive. Drove Honda, Nissan and Kia and this Mercury handles better than all. For the value this one hard to beat!

  • What a dream - 2008 Mercury Milan
    By -

    Purchased this car 2 weeks ago, what a dream. Had an Audi A6 before. Car cost 38000 this one cost 26000 and this Milan is just as nice riding as my Audi was. Power front seats are only on drivers side not passenger and there is no garage door transmitter, otherwise it has everything

  • Apples or Oranges? You decide... - 2008 Mercury Milan
    By -

    I traded in my 2005 Nissan Altima SER for a brand new 2008 Mercury Milan. My Altima SER was purchased used with 8,600 miles on the odometer. The only drawback it had a six speed manual transmission. It had 18" mag wheels, low profile racing tires, a Bose stereo system, great racing seats, and a powerful 270 hp engine. When I blew the clutch it cost me $1500.00 to get it fixed. Well Nissan blew the repair, I couldnt find reverse at times, neither could I find first. I got so discouraged after several attempts to get it right with Nissan, I went car shopping. I found the Mercury Milan Premier. Its a great car, but its not an Altima SER. Thus my title Apples or Oranges...

  • ROCK SOLID! - 2008 Mercury Milan
    By -

    My 2008 Milan AWD looks sharp in black w/ spoiler and 2 tone leather interior.Has all the options except navigation.I never had to do anything,not even put air in the tires except w/ oil changes.Takes a curve at 75 mph on the parkway w/o any problem. Getting 30 mpg if going 70 and under.Fun to drive,handles well,love the little things I used to have in my Lincoln like the keypad on the door,compass,auto headlights,calculated mpg etc.but for a lot less money than a Lincoln.My friend has a Lexus 250 IS Awd that cost 10,000 more, has less features,plain interior and has had problems to boot!Go Ford and keep up the good work!

  • Great car - 2008 Mercury Milan

    I have had this car for 5 yrs now. Loved it! Had a few problems but nothing major. I would definitely consider getting another one if I were able to find a newer version but I think they have discontinued this vehicle.

  • Very Impressed - 2008 Mercury Milan
    By -

    I really like this car. I traded in a 2006 Mercury Montego, and overall like this car much better. Plenty of leg room in the front, handles very well, nice pickup, and the gas mileage is not bad. The car looks great, better tires and wheels than the Montego, plenty of trunk space. Fun to drive.Overall, I am very happy with this car and would recommend to everyone. Coming from a full size to a mid size makes me like the mid size better. I change cars every 26 months, and this cars a keeper.

  • Excellent - 2008 Mercury Milan
    By -

    Excellent experience, I honestly dont have any complaints, the ride is great, the color is gorgeous. The v6 power keeps you ahead of traffic.

  • Top notch sedan - 2008 Mercury Milan
    By -

    The Mercury Milan is simply a better drive than any of the usual suspects in the mid-size sedan category. The I- 4 does not make for a fast sedan, but I knew that going in. The exterior design is distinctive without trying to be different, and presents an exceptionally well balanced look. The trim package on my otherwise base model Milan included top rated Michelin tires and beatiful 17 inch wheels. The interior is very well laid out,and sensible. the fit and finish flawless, and reliability 100% so far.

  • Awesome Car! - 2008 Mercury Milan
    By -

    Unbeatable interior and exterior styling, mechanical quality and great gas mileage! The creature comforts are endless. SYNC is awesome, and the leather interior is very comfortable. The rims and grille provide fantastic exterior style. The sound system is unparalled. All this, with great gas mileage, 24 in the city, 32 on the freeway no problem. Forget about the Camry, Maxima and cCvic, the Mercury Milan is where it is at. Do yourself a favor and purchase this car!
