1997 Mercury Cougar XR7 Sport Edition review from North America
"A very nice, powerful, luxury coupe"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No big problems since I have owned it.
General comments?
It is a very nice car with a ton of power. You can be sitting at a stoplight and blow past any beefed up Honda Civic, Accord etc..
The only disadvantage is it appears to be an old persons car (I am 16), that is why I looked for the one with the sport package, for instance it comes with bigger wheels, rear deck-lid spoiler, rear wing, CD player etc...
This car is really quick off the line and also when you are on the freeway, I give this car 5 out of 5 stars.
