I bought my taurus used, at the beginning of this year. It was in pretty good condition when I got it, then it started leaking all the time. It turned out it was transmission fluid all along, and this went on for about a week, and when i went to drive it one day, the transmission was just ruined. I had it towed many times to shops and it would be fixed for a short while and do the same thing. I finally got rid of it and am getting a jetta next week. I would not recommend this car to anyone its a piece of junk and will only take money out of your pocket and the gas mileage stunk.

Bought as used lease vehicle with 70000 miles. This car has plenty of power and I average 25mpg and 29 on long trips. It's very exilerating to drive! The transmission shuttered after I purchased it. Had it flushed and no problems since. Be cautious of these fly by night transmission shops, they will want to replace your transmission for no reason!

I really love my Taurus. I was lucky to be able to purchase the SEL and it is sooo sporty! Everyone comments on how they can't believe it's a Taurus! The seats are so comfortable and there is plenty of leg room in the back seat. I definitely made the right choice when I bought it!
