I bought this car used 4 years ago and have never had any real problems with it. It now has 90,000 miles on it and I have not always taken the best care of it but it continues to run and is a very reliable vehicle.
Nice car at lower mileage

Car was great when we first bought it, but then little things started going wrong. Wacky things. Replaced transmission mount twice, replaced numerous sensors. Anti-theft light continually blinks, now even when driving. I really like that one key opens everything. Has never left us stranded, but little things keep going bad. I just don't feel that it's dependable anymore. Priced too high for what you get and doesn't hold value.

I have put 135000 miles on this car and have spent less than $300.00 on repairs. I bought it because you can buy a used Sable for less money than any other car its size. Very good value if you need a roomy family car. The only thing I don't like is the lack of power on the base 3.0 engine. Go for the 24 valve version if you can.
Not too shabby

strong performance, especially w/24v dohc duratec motor. Very roomy inside for a midsize car (equivilant to full size import though). Comfortable road trip or small family car. Decent gas Mileage for size (near 25 on freeway)
Very reliable Sable

In 1995 I was attracted by the styling of the Sable and Taurus. I like the futuristic aerodynamics shape, it is still looking updated in 2005. Never boring interior. But I was surprise by the excellent reliability. There were not a single problem for 7 years. The Sable is very stable on the road with the firm suspensions, very little float, good for high speed and lane changes. Road holding is very good except on snow. Kind of like driving a train. Very little lean in turns. A lot of car and accessories for the low price. No charge leather, auto air condition, moon roof and air filtration system, heated rear mirrors, California emissions for ULEV,etc. Very roomy inside with a large truck.
