About the 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar
The eighth-generation Mercury Cougar (1999-2002) broke with three decades of rear-drive tradition and arrived as a front-wheel-drive, three-door hatchback coupe built on Ford's CDW27 platform, the same bones under the Contour and Mystique sedans. Two engines were offered: a 2.0 liter Zetec four rated at 125 horsepower and a 2.5 liter Duratec V6 rated at 170 horsepower. Nearly every four-cylinder car carries the MTX-75 5-speed manual; the V6 offered the manual or a CD4E 4-speed automatic. It was one of the first production cars styled in Ford's New Edge design language. The last Cougar was built in August 2002, and the nameplate died with it.
The story
The Cougarrrrr is the car that took the place of my beloved Grand Marquis. I've been driving her since March of '05, and am on the verge of trading her in. She's a cute, sporty little thing, and she's reliable and on top of things, but we just weren't meant to be. · stationwagonkid
