This is the worst car ever!!! In the two years since I purchased the vehicle I have had it in the shop 6 times for stalling or not starting. I have problems with my windows leaking. The interior construction is a mess. Shortly after purchase, the upholstry in the back seat starting coming up. And don't get me started on the worthless cup holder that has spilled more drinks than it has supported. Also the interior lights have had shorts since purchase. Other than the cute body style I don't have anything positive to say!

For once American styling surpassed Japan (in this price range anyway). Considered the Toyota Celica but the cougars' lines flow better. Got all the bells and whistles (leather, sunroof, CD, Chrome wheels) makes the car much more enjoyable in the long run.

Transmission started slipping at 28K and is now slipping nicely at 56K. Alarm still randomly goes off for no reason
