2005 Mercury Sable LS 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 4A)

This car is fabulous! You could call it a sleeper. Sable is not well known by most people looking for a car in this class, but it sure beats all the imports. It has everything, looks, size, comfort, performance, price and quality. Ford has had alot of time to get the bugs out and refine this vehicle to where it is as near to perfect as you can get. Of course, then it has to be discontinued because it has been around too long and the name or the style isn't "cool" to some. I think it was way ahead of its time when it was first designed and is still a very nice looking, safe, comfortable and functional car. Better find one fast. Not many 2005's left. Don't get a "me to" import. Be different.

The 24V DOHC engine is extremely smooth, quiet and pulls this solidly built car to highway speeds quickly and without fuss. The interior room and trunk volume are exceptional and unmatched by the foreign competition. The traction control takes a little getting used as compared to my two previous Sables without this feature, but is extremely effective on snow and ice. Who needs a vehicle to haul around all those 4WD mechanicals all the time? The leather interior is top- notch and the power sunroom adds a new dimension to my motoring. I would highly recommend this Georgia-built car to anyone looking for value in well- built car.
Excellent value

This car is well-equipped (ABS, side airbags, traction control, monroof, leather, CD). Because it was the end of the model year, I paid $18K for it. The 24V Duratec engine has excellent power. This is a great value 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.
Beautiful and practical station wagon

2004 Mercury Sable LS Premium 4dr Wagon (3.0L 6cyl 4A)

The medium red color and exterior look of this wagon elicit many second looks. It has been a very satisfactory car thus far. I have had no problems with the car. The large storage space in this relatively long wagon has been great for lugging purchases and for long trips. Eight foot lumber items are no problem with the rear door closed. All in all I am very satisfied.
