I purchased my 2000 special edition in Aug of 2000. I paid $22,300.00 I have had nothing but constant problems with this car. It has been at the service department more than I have had a chance to drive it.

Not very pleased
I've had my Cougar for 2 years, and it's been in the shop for MAJOR issues about 10 times. 3 times for the fuel pump (twice replaced), 2 recalls, Transmission slips, brakes, leaks of all sorts, electrical failures, and the list goes on... It's a shame because the car itself it very nice looking, but it's TOTALLY not worth the trouble. I'm looking forward to moving on to a different car soon.
Oh my Kitty
I purchased my Cougar in April 2000. Most problems related to service but I did take the car back about 4 times the first two weeks for radio problems. A few months afterward, I took it back because of bubbles that caused paint chips. The car has had several recalls that I knew nothing about until a year later. The most recent problem was the RPM revs in neutral. Passengers are not crazy about the back seat, so this car is for the selfish...few riders and no little kids! The car seat does not fit properly in the back. I like the looks, but I am not completely satisfied. I won't be buying another Cougar...neither will I buy another Mercury.
fun but some problems
Car is ok to drive but some minor problems have come up 1. Sun roof broke and some times leaks from rain 2. Driver side window doesn't always go up 3. Alternator die a year ago. 4. The counter for how many miles you have left is way off its died twice on me when it said it had 23 miles left its ok but I would Rather have a Ford mustang and I will be selling this car
