  • Love my Montego - 2007 Mercury Montego
    By -

    Have had my Montego for almost 7 months & bought as certified pre-owned from dealer. This is a terrific car. I have AWD & am getting an avg of 22 MPG 60/40 highway & city. The CVT transmission and engine combination make for a good value with respect to gas consumption. The V-6 is a bit underpowered however. If it were 250-260 horses vs the 205 with the CVT tranny it would be perfect. (Nissan did this with the Murano- why cant you Ford?) Its adequate but you dont get the "jolt" when punching the gas.

    Bought it with 14,000 already on the car. Chose it over Buick Le Sabre/Lucerne and similar Oldsmobile. It has higher seats was easier to get in and out of. Gas mileage seems poor, I never push it hard and never exceed speed limits, but on a trip of 60mph all day I get at best 24mpg. Most driving is in town, so mileage is usually 19mpg. Ride is excellent, visibility is good, Im very happy I bought it.

  • Outstanding and Underrated - 2007 Mercury Montego

    A good-looking, enjoyable car to drive. Receives many compliments from passengers. Handles very well. All the right gadgets. Plenty of back seat room for tall adults. Very roomy trunk. Great all-around visibility for driver. Avg fuel: 20/28 Highway. Excellent sound system and dash controls. Engine very adequate for all but racers. Great Pirelli tires. I would easily buy another of these wonderful cars. Since 2008 re-badged as Sable and even better with larger engine.

  • Best car so far - 2007 Mercury Montego
    By -

    My last 3 cars were made by Toyota and all have been very reliable. Now as we are getting older, I wanted my creature comforts and better, fuller seats. Cant say enough about the car because it is awesome. Even better than an older Caddy that we once owned. On our first trip, I tried to keep the RPM just under 2000, speed 65MPH which achieved 29.6 mpg..

    This is the best all round automobile that I have owned in a long time. It is fun to drive and very confortable. I love the trunk. I have been pleased with the fuel economy for such a large car. I think that Mercury has a real winner with this one.

  • My 07 Mercury Montego - 2007 Mercury Montego

    About a week ago i purchased a 07 Montego and its awesome. it has great features like HID Headlights and LED Tailights and a Navigation System and Sirius Satellite Radio and dual power heated Command Seating and a powerful DOHC 24V V6 Engine. And the interior has room galore and so does the trunk and the 18" Rims and Tires look awesome and the dark blue paint looks great along with the all black leather interior. oh and i almost forgot the rear seat DVD system is awesome if you go on trips or if you have kids and along with the smooth quiet ride you have got a great luxury sedan that is sure to win your heart and soul and sure to impress your family and friends GREAT job Mercury !!!!

  • Just purchased - 2007 Mercury Montego

    Just purchased a 2007 sedan and drove on a trip for 5,000 miles. Impressed with the interior comfort and ability to adjust the pedals as both my husband and I are rather tall. City driving is fine but accelerating uphill or to pass another car takes planning with the engine size. Back seat is very roomy but I wish they would have made the front seat go back farther for taller drivers and have the ability to adjust the steering wheel higher up to accommodate knees and high heels when entering the car. The rear auto-adjust mirror feature at night is great with the bright lights of vehicles coming up behind you. Overall good value with the quality and end of year price for us!

  • More than you expect - 2007 Mercury Montego

    I picked the Montego after exhaustive research and trying a number of different new vehicles. We needed a second car after buying the 2007 Acura TL. The Montego, a fully equipped AWD/CVT model with all the bells and whistles, has been superb, and from the standpoint of inital quality upon ownership, completely trouble free, more trouble free than the well regarded Acura TL, which was in the shop more than half the time the first 6 weeks to replace the a/c compressor which failed because someone had neglected to install some required seals during its build. The seating position is outstanding, view in every direction excellent, ride sure footed and stable, and fit and finish first rate.

    The first thing I noticed was the power.Getting on the freeway It is slow.Also the audio system sounds a little cheap.Be fore this car I drove a 04 Sable that was much quicker and the audio system was better. Other than that it is a nice car and my friends think it is too.So far I have had two small problems with the car. During a trip of 200 miles I was getting 28+ MPG.At 70 MPH
