I'm going to be working on a cougar this weekend for a dealership, it's going up for sale for $8500...it's an 00, grey leather, black, fresly painted bumper and hood.....pretty clean, with 113,000 KMS on it. Has traction, V6, but it's an auto...sorry Mike (I could have got a good price "as is" on it). One thing thats weird...there is a single CD player in the dash....and a stock 6 disc in the trunk....I have never seen a cougar with BOTH. Usually it's the tape deck in the front with the 6 disc....anyone here seen that?
Anyway, do you guys notice many cougars in your areas?
I see a TONNE around London lately, and none are at dealerships or for sale...all on the road. Only lousy part is whenever I see them I'm driving Christines grand am.

I'm seeing them everywhere right now...It's actually kinda buggin me a little...One of the reason I bought the car was because you don't see em all that much...I saw a Dark Blue one for the very first time the other night...Thats a gorgeous colour on the car...Thow a pearl coat on top of that. :cool:

I'm assuming you are talking about the Melina blue....or an LSB?
In london over the past 3 weeks I've seen:
3-4 01/02's all red
1 - 01 grabber green
2-3 99/00 DT greens
4-5 99/00 black
1 cirtus gold
1 melina blue
2 LSB's
at least 4 silvers from 99 up
..and a spruce being driven by a lady who was at least 70.
Oh, and 1 rio red with painted headlights and a visteon hoodscoop, he had a "simply domestic" sticker in his rear window and I couldn't find a pen and paper to save my life.

I guess thats the name of the colour...I just say a Midnight blue like on the Contours the first couple of years they were out.
And whats with all the old people driving them...I see a Coug on the highway and I wanna pull up next to them to give a thumbs up and BAM....They're all wrinkled and stuff.
I don't have a prob with it, but man...is the Cougar starting to get Buick Century status or something?

I think it's people hitting their "I need a sporty car" syndrome and with the cost and look of the cougar it's the way to go. After all...it was designed for the female 35+ market.

And its not too powerful that they have to keep a stock of Depends with them in the car. :rofl:

and does the 6-disc work with that headunit?
I had never seen that combo before so I have no clue. :)

Yes the head unit and 6 disc changer in the trunk all work as one system. I'm pretty sure they are shown in the owners manual in the same configuration.
