What a deal

2004 Mercury Sable LS Premium 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 4A)
1 of 1 people found this review helpful

I just bought this car in July 2004 after all the rebates were announced. I have the luxury package for a premium Mercury LS Sable, and got almost $6,000 off the sticker price, which included $4,000 from Ford. The rest was from the dealer. I got an excellent deal on an excellent car. Would highly recommend a Sable.

So Far So Good - Part II

6,000 miles/3 months and so far so good! My Sable continues to impress with its smooth ride, comfortable seats, and generally polished demeanor. Truly this car speaks volumes as to why Americans buy millions of mid-size sedans each year - they really do just "fit!" Certainly not exciting, hardly sporty; but without a doubt, comfortable, quiet and eminently faithful in their daily motions. Complaints in my case are few thus far. Gas mileage is hardly stellar (avg is about 20 or so mpg; all highway), and the standard stereo emits nothing but dull and flat noises. Finally "quality," that ever looming threat, has remained perfect - no glitches to report! Stay tuned - Part III to come!

A Great Value, comfort and Fun to Drive

Lets talk quality, After a full year this car has only seen the inside of the shop for oil change/tire rotation. Its the only new car I have ever bought that needed no trip back to fix build problems. As to price, we feel we got a lot of car, equipment, and value for our money. We are very satisfied, and to put this in context, this car replaced a Lincoln LS, which may have beenour favorite car of all time. Make no mistake, this is NOT an LS, but this is still enough car to keep us satisfied, with a lot of cash left over!

2004 Black Sable Platinum Edition

This is alot of bang for the buck. I chose the Sable LS with the Platinum Edition package. The car is loaded and you would never be able to get this in a honda or toyota for the price I paid. The car is roomier and overall a excellent choice. The best part is there are less Sable's on the road than ther others. The car has the classic ride that Ford products are known for. It makes me wonder why people feel they need to spend over 25-30,000 for a car like this that everybody else is driving. My best advise is be different and test drive a Sable. You may just surprise yourself and your wallet!

New car experience

I am writing this review for 1 reason. Torque steer. This vehicle exhibits an extreme amount of torque steer when accelerating hard from a stop light. Even when cruising at 50 mph and giving it gas the car pulls to the right fairly hard. I thought it may have been the alignment but if you let off the gas the car tracks very straight! I find this flaw very annoying and spend most of my day making a left hand turn to keep the car straight!
