Out of FIVE stars, the consumer reviews gave the car with OEM
Sable Hubcaps FOUR stars; which means its a pretty great car - its better than decent. The base model has an Automatic transmission & all wheel drive. The difference with this one & the premier model is that the premier model comes standard with Bluetooth and and iPod input - the base model does not.
When the 2008 model was released, they molded it so it can resemble the much-improved Montego. It had a more powerful engine, a much nicer & quieter cabin, a minor face-lift, and even if it didnt have Sable Wheel Covers on it, it should have - but the Alloy Wheels were pretty nice & will do for this model.
Since no one really has any experience driving a Mercury Sable with
Sable Hub Caps, theres a lot of ponder as to why there were so many people buying the car all of a sudden. Theres no real reason recorded as to why Mercury re-debuted the Sable, but the only thing that we know is that its back and it received really good reviews; so people just have to deal with it - people like me.
The best thing that you can probably hear about the Sable is that it has improved running gear and improved features - but then, what vehicle manufacturer doesnt say that; right? Mercury even said that there were more than 500 changes made! I have no idea how many things within the car you can change, but it does sound like it has changed for the better. There was 260-Horsepower V6 that replaced the uninspiring 203-hp0 V6 engine.
The new model of the Sable also had a front end that was restyled to bring it up to date, it included the option of stability control which helps people like me steer properly in some situations, a retuned suspension, a new system called Ford Sync that allowed hands free use of mobile phones, and some more insulation so that way the driver can have a ride that was more quiet. If you were to ask me, these are all the features that are on cars like Jaguars and Mercedes.
Heres the basic description : the Sable with
Sable Hubcaps is your typical full-size sedan that you can either buy in front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive (Mercury knows that people like their options!) There were two trim levels that were offered : Base and uplevel Premier. There were full-power accessories, a steering wheel that was wrapped in leather (which is better than my steering wheel thats wrapped in a zebra cover), AND an MP3 jack for your iPod. What more can a person ask for?
When a person chose the uplevel Premier model, they got 18-inch wheels, a leather interior, seat heater for the driver and passenger seat, heated mirrors with puddle lamps, AND a memory system for the driver seat/mirrors; my moms BMW has all of these .. except the heated mirrors with the puddle lamps.
So, do you want this car? I bet you do. Have you seen how nice the
Sable Wheel Covers are? I can honestly say that you cannot go wrong if you buy this car; you have features that people with BMWs wish they had.
As I read more and more about this car, I just want to go out and buy it! I mean cmon, how many cars have that heated mirror with that puddle lamp thing on their car? None! .. except maybe if you have the Sable.
