1995 Mercury Cougar review from North America
"One of America's best coupes ever"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The transmission torque converter acts kinda'weird between 3rd and overdrive, but I knew about these issues with these cars before I got one, but I still wanted one because they're some super good looking cars.
General comments?
Even though the front seats could have been more stylish or sporty looking, I'm amazed at how well thought out this cars' interior design is;in particular, the door locks were obviously designed so that some low-life couldn't slide a tire tool through from the top of the door and activate the power door locks. I agree, that discontinuing the cougars and t-birds from the 94-97 era was a mistake, those were some of the nicest coupes ever made in America.
