I have enjoyed leasing and driving this vehicle very much, especially because I am 4'10" the gas and brake pedal come to me which makes the drive a very comfortable one. I am considering purchasing a 2003 when this lease is up in June 03--the vehicle I am driving is a 2000 leased 6/00--I am in the market for a 2003 to own not lease

Bourght in late summer 03, had 7000 miles on it. This is not a bad car but I would not buy it again. Bought with extended warantee. Went back with paint peeling on front air vents. They said car was in a accident Repainted front bumper. They did not tell me this when I bourght car. Would not make good on warantee. Transmission had to be rebuilt at 35,000 miles. Had better cars.

Purchased 03 Sable with 20,000 miles on it. Excellent car until two years later when the transmission went out 1,000 miles from warrenty expiring. I just today had to have the drums and back brakes repaired. Only has 42,000 miles on it. Other then that car has been reliable. I will never buy another Ford though.
Decent older car for new driver

Considered this low mileage car as a replacement for high mileage Honda Civic. I was ready to do the deal but my mechanic said I’m better off with the Honda which is running fine just a lot of miles and it won’t last forever! Mechanic is a personal friend so his recommendation wasn’t based on future repairs to the Honda.

The Duratec has more responsive power than the new Crown Vic LS-Sport's souped up V-8. Fast and nimble car! Back seat is surprisingly roomy, but front leg room is big disappointment for taller driver. Put seat back for legs, can't reach wheel comfortably. Bad proportions, bad intrusive left front wheel well into driver's left leg area. Foot will fall asleep bent up on foot rest!

This car is pretty nice to drive, but its nothing special. We've owned this car for 5 years now and still nothing really stands out as special. It gets pretty good gas mileage under 55 mpg on the highway. Also, once it gets to about a quarter tank of gas, the fuel pump shuts off. We had to push it over a mile to a gas station, I mean, what a stupid design failure. Overall, this car is not very impressive
OOH- shiny!

I bought the LS Premium with about 22k on it 6 mo. ago. AC compressor went bad after a couple months (luckily I had the extended warranty, but it still cost me a little over $100 deductible). Otherwise, car seems pretty solid. Somewhat luxurious (compared to the blander Taurus anyhow). But my LS came without a 6disc changer! Also, as others have said- the trunk, while of a decent size, is hindered by a too- small, oddly-shaped opening. And yeah, drum brakes? Shame on Ford for that one... Otherwise, I'm liking this car quite a bit.
Awesome

I bought my 2002 Sable LS Premium in Dec 2002. Opted for the Mach Audio system, with the 6 disk cd changer in the armrest, and spash guards. The car itself rocks. It has a lot of power, does 0-50 in no time. Love the looks of it, and the cabin is quiet also. Gas mileage really sucks. I do about 260 miles per tank the most in the city, and 320 miles per tank on the highway. For people who are thinking about buying it: It's an OK car, except for: Bad gas mileage, water leaking in from under the driver's floormat (car always smells of mold because of that), engineering. And last, it's nice and comfortable.
