1994 Mercury Cougar XR7 review from North America
"This car kicks ass and takes names!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission went bad about 5 months after we got it. Dealer replaced it.
Knob on shifter broke.
Motor on driver side window wore out.
Seat split on driver side.
General comments?
This car is my baby. I love... this car!! Like another poster said... if I could buy another one.. I would have bought it yesterday! This is a very cool looking car and a delight to drive with lots of power and a smooth ride. It is the popular green that came out about 1994, its beautiful, but where we live, it has been hard on the paint on the hood, not a fault of the car, but of the conditions where I live. The new cougar's could not even hold a candle to this model!! This is a wonderful car.
Car has always been easy to drive and easy to handle. It is a bit touchy in the rain and snow, but use your head and don't try to hot dog. In other words... I would buy this car again in a heartbeat!
