Pleased as Punch by Clovis Cougar on 05/14/2003. Trim: 1997 Mercury Cougar XR-7, Owned 3 years.

Pros: It's size and economy... It's big enough for me (6'-2" and 290 lbs)...) Gives me about 28 mpg
Cons: Heavy doors that spring back and catch your leg before you get a chance to get entirly in the car. Location of the O/D button on the gear selector...I have a tendency to rest my hand on the selector and inadverdently push it, causing the O/D to go off while diving at highway speeds causing the engine to rev up suddenly and startle me.
Overall review: Very pleased with my car, don't think I went wrong in purchasing it
