A Lot for the Money
I have a C-5 Corvtte that I want to last a long time, thus I added the Sable for routine driving. It is not flashy or super at anythigng, but it is a very comfortble, roomy, peppy (with the 24v engine)and well equipped sedan. With ABS, leather seating, automatic adusting rear view mirror, all power, auto climate control, traction control and side air bags, it cost less than $19,000. I get about 20 mpg in town and 30 on the road. This Sableis the quietest vehicle I have owned. My wife't Maxima seems much noiser by contrast.
Great car
Purchased this '04 Sable LS with 7800 miles on it from a dealership in Brandeton, Fl. The exterior design is beautiful and it is a classy looking car. The interior cabin is all leather and it is one of the most comfortable cars I have driven including those so- called luxury cars. The gas mileage could be better,(17mpg city,and 22mpg on the highway) Driving this car on the highway is like sitting in your living room in a very comfortable leather chair. You have very little feeling of motion and you do not feel the road at all. The sound system is quite good and the A/C climate control is wonderful. Set the interior temperature and relax in comfort. Great car!! 2005 is the last model yr.

Best Buy / Worst Sell
I have had my Sable LS for about 9 months. Traded a 2003 Aviator for better gas mileage. This car is the most comfortable car I have owned including the Aviator and 2003 Mercedes C-320. The seats have plenty room, a/c works extremely well even in New Orleans summer climate, mach sound system is very adequate. Performance with Duratec V-6 is very responsive. Gas mileage could be better, however, I am sure part of that goes along with different driving habits. Trunk space is very good. Style is good but lacks eye catching appeal, looks like many other mid size sedans. For the money you can't get a better car, however, if you want to sell it you will take a beating as resale is poor.
Sable beats Toyota & Honda
The Mercury Sable is a fine automobile and a well-kept secret by Ford Motor Company. They've built a terrific car that is SUPERIOR to Toyota and Honda rivals. The value of this car far exceeds the high purchase proce and high maintenance costs of the Japanese imports.
Reliable Comfort
Traded a 2002 Miata in for it when I needed a new car to drive coast to coast pulling a trailer. Wound up making the drive twice and the car performed flawlessly. Now has 55,000 miles on it and the only repair trip to the dealer was to replace a failing speaker. Car has DOHC 3.0 engine. Pulls down 28 MPG on the highway and 22-24 MPG around town which is surprising for its size. In winter I use 4 studded snows and have never gotten stuck in the worst storms New England can throw at it.
