I am thinking about purchasing one for $2500 but I am getting a lot of back and forth imput from people l know about the car. Some say it is a good deal and some say it isn't. The car has 93,000 miles on it and the only thing wrong with it is that it does not have a working AC but l can live without one.

Do you think it is a good deal? How much longer can the transmission last with these types of cars if handled in good condition?
Sorry, forgot to add it was a year 2000.

That is a good deal l have an 97 68k miles , Listen if you take care of it and preform all the maintenance on it you may break a record for the longest Taurus in the world , Good deal just look after it ,hope this helps,

you do not say what year the car is so no one can say if its a good deal or not

l have a 96 mercury sable...2 transmissions and the sensor goes bad since 1999..other than that the car drive smooth

The transmission is rarely last more then 120k miles on these cars even if they r babied, l would guess the transmission that is in it is just about worn out & will cost around $2500 to rebuild. Check the transmission fluid & see if it is a brown color or has a burnt smell to it, if it is then it is most likely junk already but if it is still nice & red colored then it will still have some miles left in it. Also be warned theses cars r not very good on gas & r generally a high maintenance car.

they are good cars
