Thank you!
I like the color too ... mostly because it's not a redly red (the fancy dealer name for the color is "Toreador Red") ... more of a bright burgundy, with which I'm comfortable.
As far as what it is ... It's a Mercury Sable, so yes, it does
look like a Ford Taurus, but because of the difference in product lines is more upscale than that.
This baby is LOADED. Because it was the dealer demo, it has ALL the features (or damn near. The passenger seat is manually adjusted. I won't often be sitting in it much, so I'll live.)
Permit me to introduce you all to Baron Manfred Albrecht Freiherr von Richtofen.
ABS
Traction Control System
Leather Seats
Power Adjustable Driver's Seat
Premium Sound System (and I got them to throw in the 6 disk CD changer to sweeten the deal)
Premium Heating System (with the dial-a-temperature thingy. I tell it what I want the interior temp to be ... it stays there.)
Power Moon Roof

(this is too cool)
Cruise Control
Keyless entry and security package
Power pretty much everything else (windows, locks, wipes my ass for me)
And the BIG engine. 200 hp 24 valve DOHC
There's probably more, but that's what I remember right now.
I did have to apologize to my old, beloved 1994 Eagle Talon when I traded him, though.
