  • Awesome car - 2000 Mercury Sable
    By -

    I just had an extremely serious wreck at 65mph where I ended up on the opposite of the freeway upside down. My car did not pancake. The rear glass did not break, the doors did not cave in, I sustained no injury. I wish I could find another one just like it!

  • Solid, dependable, versatile vehicle - 2000 Mercury Sable
    By -

    Purchased this car used with 9k mi. Car has been relatively inexpensive to maintain, remains solid and has provided unfailing dependability. Currently has 130k mi. Not an exciting car, but is solid and safe feeling. Smooth highway ride. I call it my 4-wheeled sofa. Has the tried and true base 6-cylinder as I was a bit wary of the more powerful 24-valve 6 cyl. Factory brakes were poor, but once after market brakes put on, no problem. Adequate performance, very useful for family trips, 18-20mpg city, 24-25mpg highway on regular gas. Still running on stock transmission with no signs of problems. Dash, upholstery, and paint remain in excellent condition. Plan to keep for 2 more dependable years.

  • My 2000 Mercury Sable LS Premium - 2000 Mercury Sable
    By -

    I have had this car 1 month shy of 3 years. It has 25,000 miles on it. I really like the car. The interior, paint, & 24 valve V6 are all great. Like others have stated on the 2000 Sable there have been too many recalls of which most were not necessary (in my opinion). My car also has a very slight oil leak and a rear window/trunk leak which 2 different dealers can not fix. They are annoying little problems that should have been fixed. Ford needs to get there designs tested before sending them out to the consumer. There "Quality is Job 1" is a joke. The little problems that I have had and the number of recalls should have been caught.

  • under rated sports sedan - 2000 Mercury Sable
    By -

    I have owned a Mustang GT and Camaro Z28, Grand AM GT. I like quick cars but family demands and shoe horning oneself into a car isnt much fun. I needed a sedan that was within my budget and had good handeling, accelerates and fun to drive. Two family menbers own V6 sedans one was a Toyota Camry, the other a Sable 24V. Seeing the Sable was American made, better seating, and less bland styling, I optd for the Sable. Performance, handling and ride between the two cars is similiar, the Camry is slightly quicker off the line, the Sable is slightly quicker on the upper end of the tach. Fit and finish are good, no rattles or squeks.

  • This is my second Sable - 2000 Mercury Sable

    This is my second Sable. I would buy it again

  • Mixed feelings - 2000 Mercury Sable
    By -

    I love the style, power and comfort of my Sable. It is fun to drive. What I have not enjoyed was the multiple trips to the dealer to fix problems. Most were minor electrical problems but 1 took 5 trips to the dealer to resolve the problem. The transmission needed to be replace with only 45,000 miles. The verdict is still out if I would buy another one. They would need to convince me that there quality control had improved.

  • Mercury Survives 109.5K and still ticks! - 2000 Mercury Sable
    By -

    I bought this car on a 5 year loan (and a wing and a prayer) knowing that I drive 28K miles/year. I love this car and, to my surprise, this car still runs great, everything works, and my gas mileage usually is 23 MPG or better. I am debating whether to keep it and run it into the ground, or lose $3,200 because of depreciation versus loan residual. I think Ill keep it!

  • Decent but not great! - 2000 Mercury Sable
    By -

    I bought the car in September of 2006 and I wish I wouldnt have because the fifth day I had to spend $500 to get my intake fixed, and Ive spent over $800 dollars trying to get my a/c fixed and still is not fixed right. When I accelerate hard it blows warm, and another 5 months after that I broke down on the side of the road because my transmission had gone out on it. Overall I would never buy another Sable again because its all Ford parts.

  • Great Car - 2000 Mercury Sable
    By -

    I bought this car from my daughter that used it as a company car. It is near perfect. We replaced our Infinity J-30 (that my wife totaled) with this car and I like it as well as the Infinity. Due to our experience with this car, we bought another one... a 2001. They seem almost identical with maybe the ride being a little better with the 2000. We still own both at this time. The ride is great and a very quite (every bit as quite as the Infinity) inside. Ive had NO major mechanical problems with this car. The seating is perfect... the driver is located in the right position for the steering wheel, brakes and pedals. Rear seating is very good.

  • Great Car! - 2000 Mercury Sable
    By -

    I drive over 100 miles a day (round trip to work. It is comfortable and bullet proof. Stock sound system is rock solid. Heating/AC works great. Ride is comfortable and steering is tight (yet smooth). Its not fancy but it gets the job done VERY WELL! Never EVER had any problems and I am well over 100,000 miles. If you find a low mileage one, BUY IT!
