Re: Car-0-scope results...funny!

Actually, if by Mercury Cougar, they mean one of the 1999-> models, it is
actually very European in flavor and pedigree. Ford Mondeo world car
platform and all...

We had one last year when they first came out that we Lemon-Law'ed due to
your normal first-model-year glitches, but the car _drove_ fantastic! The
2.5L V-6 in those things is a jewel too, especially with the ECU and headers
out of a Contour SVT ;) If Mercury could have made us happy with the stupid
problems the car had, it would have been a keeper. As it is, Mercury is
discontinuing them due to bad press and lack of buyer interest. In 3 years
they should be worthless and I'll pick up another one.

Cheers,

Christian

I had to try this. Not too happy with the results though. It says I should
be driving one of these:

1. Chevrolet Camaro
2. Pontiac Firebird
3. Ford Mustang
4. Mercury Cougar
5. Chevrolet Monte Carlo

Not even one European car... I could live with 1 - 4 if they were, say
'67-'68, but a Monte Carlo?
