I drove a friend's automatic Cougar once, not a bad car really. Interior was typical Ford, but it was plucky.

Ah, yes, I know those stories all too well...

Automatics, *sticks out tongue*, the deciding factor with this car was that is was a standard, lol. It was either this or a '96 Subaru Legacy GT. They were both the same price, but the Cougar had less miles, one owner and of course, that awesome MTX-75 Transmission.
