2002 Mercury Cougar XR Special Edition

Original Owner
Only 72280 Miles


I am the original owner.   The vehicle is all original and has been well maintained.  This was the last year for the Cougar.   It's also worth noting that this car was purchased new in May of 2003... and was likely one of the last Cougar's sold.   The dealer had been holding firm on the price and consequently it did not sale for a few years.   So while it is a 2002 Car, it sat in a showroom until mid 2003 before being sold (to us).

Overall Condition:
First and foremost, please see the pictures for the best indicator of the condition.   Overall the car looks very good inside and out.   We purchased it because my wife really liked it, and she drove it most of the time until our child was born.   At that point I started driving it so she could take the Tahoe (safer arrangement for a car seat).   It's been well maintained, but was a daily driver.  Tires have a decent amount of tread left.   Normal small dings here and there that would be expected on a car with this age and mileage.    

Issues:
1.  There is a crack on the rear spoiler (see closeup picture).  Caused when we mistakenly left the trunk open and pulled out of the garage.  The spoiler hit the garage door.
2.  I curbed the car coming out of a parking garage.   This left a scuff on the drivers side of the front bumper (see pics, it's right at the bottom of the bumper).  I had the suspension arm replaced on that side afterwords just to be safe (I think it had a scrape / scuff on it).   This isn't an issue, just noting so the buyer has a complete background on the car.



If you have any questions or would like to come inspect the vehicle please contact me through eBay.

Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman

Wed, 17 Nov 2010

Jill Wagner has officially given up her crown as the queen of Mercury. With the Ford middle child on its way to the scrap heap, Wagner no longer has any automotive hardware to promote. Given her varied talents, we wouldn't be surprised to see her pick up where she left off with another automaker.
And here you thought you'd never be upset about Mercury's passing.
Thanks for the tip, Gregg!

Report: Lincoln getting all of Mercury's ad dollars

Mon, 03 Jan 2011

Now that the curtain has closed on Mercury, Ford Motor Company will redirect all of its marketing dollars for the oft-overlooked brand to the Blue Oval's luxury outpost, Lincoln. In speaking to Automotive News, the chairman of the Lincoln National Dealer Council, Bob Tasca, Jr., said, "You'll see a lot stronger presence in the advertising of Lincoln in 2011."
Lincoln spokesperson Christian Bokich reminded AN that the automaker is "preparing the way for seven new or significantly refreshed vehicles" that will be launched over the next four years, and the largest ad blitz in 2011 will focus on the refreshed MKX crossover, as well as the MKZ sedan and its hybrid counterpart. Following that, Lincoln has plans to launch a completely overhauled version of its Navigator SUV, an all-new C-segment vehicle and the overhauled 2013 MKZ, which Tasca says will be "strikingly different from its Ford Fusion sibling."

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes

Thu, 10 May 2012

When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
