    Mercury Cougar

    1999-2002

    The Cougar was introduced in 1999 as a small, front-wheel-drive coupe with a large hatchback. The car had excellent handling but a stiff ride. It was available with a 125-horsepower, 2.0-liter four-cylinder or a 170-hp, 2.5-liter V6. Even the V6 provides just adequate acceleration. It is available with an automatic transmission that is sometimes reluctant to downshift or with a balky five-speed manual. Six-footers fit comfortably up front and the rear seat is comfortable for a sporty coupe.
    The Cougar was dropped after 2002.
