Replying to: thegraduate (Jun 17, 2008 8:35 am) 17k for SEL with leather?   What kind of 'program' is that?   Thanks. Replies to this message: thegraduate (Jun 17, 2008 10:30 am) rotary (Jun 17, 2008 10:25 pm) thegraduate (Jun 18, 2008 8:10 am)

Replying to: rotary (Jun 17, 2008 10:29 am) It was a demonstrator/loaner car. And yes, $17k for SEL with Leather, Convenience, Safety/Security, Moonroof. 13k miles for the particular car they drove. Replies to this message: rotary (Jun 17, 2008 10:25 pm) thegraduate (Jun 18, 2008 8:10 am)

Not to beat a dead horse, but are you sure that diesn't mean HALOGEN lights rather than Xenon lights, which are HID??? Replies to this message: ronsmith38 (Jun 17, 2008 6:11 pm) ryster (Jun 22, 2008 4:22 am)

Replying to: marsha7 (Jun 17, 2008 5:06 pm) After checking, the bulb types come in both Xenon and Halogen. The suffix may be different for the two types. Searching the internet I find Xenon lamps mentioned for the 2008 Sable in the specifications on several car sites. However, I don't see it on the Mercury site. The 2007 Montego specs on the car sites also listed Xenon lamps. Replies to this message: ryster (Jun 22, 2008 4:22 am)

Replying to: thegraduate (Jun 17, 2008 10:30 am) That makes sense. I thought it was new. Or maybe a demo with 3k or 4k thousand miles on it. Replies to this message: thegraduate (Jun 18, 2008 8:10 am)

Replying to: rotary (Jun 17, 2008 10:25 pm) Nope. You must've passed over the part of my post that said : "They may even get a program car; the dealer had nearly a dozen with 12-15k miles on them."   No problem.

The headlights are projector style Halogen bulbs, not xenon.   Mark. Replies to this message: ronsmith38 (Jun 22, 2008 6:37 am)
#67 of 103 Taurus/Sable differences by terryd Jun 21, 2008 (11:01 am)
Are there any qualatative differences between the two models for 2008. We are considering the Limited or the Premier, and the salesman said it is only a badging issue with sheet metal the only significant difference. Appreciate your insights.

Replying to: terryd (Jun 21, 2008 11:01 am) The salesman is correct. The Sable has some styling tweaks versus the Taurus (different trunklid/taillamps, front-end styling), but otherwise should be pretty much identical to drive.
