Ford is on the Right Track

Date of Review:  Jan 17, 2005
The Bottom Line: This car is affordable, attractive and comfortable. Everything a full-sized sedan should be.
Review: It has been a long time since I have written a review here at Epinions. I guess it just took something worth writing about...I just sold my Expedition and have purchased a 2005 Ford Five Hundred...a car I feel is worth writing about.

With a designer from VW and a chassis from Volvo, will this car save Ford?

Date of Review:  Oct 1, 2004
The Bottom Line: A very good value for those seeking a roomy, functional sedan. Not very rewarding to look at or drive, though.
Review: In 1997 Ford went outside the company to hire J Mays as its new chief designer. Earlier Mays had been chief designer at Audi, and Ford hoped he'd work similar magic in Dearborn. Well, the magic has been a long time coming. Mays' concepts ranged from...

A mixed bag

Date of Review:  Oct 18, 2004
The Bottom Line: A true step up from the Taurus, yet not quite world class.
Review: My daughter was trying to talk me into taking a ride this past Sunday and finally succeeded by suggesting we "go check out some cars". I've been out of the car test-driving racket for months now, and it sounded like a good idea.

We decided...

If You Want Big, Bland, and Comfy, Ford's Got Your Number

Date of Review:  Oct 25, 2004
The Bottom Line: In many respects, the Five Hundred seems to be preaching to the domestic-car choir instead of breaking new ground. But there's also newfound solidity and sophistication under the skin.
Review: My Experience

I recently attended the Ford Racing Innovation Drive event in Pasadena. It was held at Irwindale Speedway, and was essentially a showcase for Ford's new 2005 models--the Five Hundred sedan, the Mustang coupe, and the...

A decision I'm extremely happy with!!

Date of Review:  Mar 3, 2006
The Bottom Line: This sedan is someone who wants a lot of room in a vehicle that drives like a smaller sedan with class and style.
Review: Exterior: The Limited has chrome on it that the SEL and SE lack. Personally, I love the chrome accents. I even purchased the aftermarket trunk handle trim and chrome license plate frames. I am not thrilled with the "brushed chrome" look of the...

So Bland It Makes British Cuisine Taste Spicy

Date of Review:  Jan 23, 2005
The Bottom Line: Get it if you don't care about the car you drive.
Review: Ah, the joys of company cars. Currently in a 2004 Altima that I'm loving, the time is coming where I'll be able to pick a new car for work. The contenders? The aforementioned Altima S-Extra (this time a 2005), the Ford Five Hundred SE, the Ford...

Date of Review:  Sep 25, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you need a roomy car at a great price, test drive the 500.
Review: The bulk of the reviews written for cars on this site are written by people who may have simply taken them for a test drive. The better reviews may be from the people who buy them and have to live with them. If you were to compare the reviews on...

My SEL = Luxury + Business

Date of Review:  Apr 9, 2005
The Bottom Line: I wanted a classy business car with lots of room. The price was right and I got what I needed.
Review: I traded my F150 in for a more sensible automobile, one that was great for the kids, good on gas mileage, and would impress clients. I nailed it! I love the car, but it has had it's problems.

A large car on the ....Cheap, Cheap!!

Date of Review:  Jul 6, 2006
The Bottom Line: I really wanted to like this car. Ford deserves to be doing better than they are, we took a chance on this company and they let us down.
Review: Let me first say that purchasing this car was not my choice. I didn't wake up one day and say "I think I will go and buy a Ford, I am sure all their cars are great now and they don't make crap any more".
We had to trade in a couple of cars, we...

EXCELLENT AWD CAR!!

Date of Review:  Oct 11, 2008
The Bottom Line: This is a great car that compares to a crossover/SUV. Good MPG!
Review: Because of the high cost of gas prices we had been talking about trading in my wife Dodge Durango (9 mpg) for something with much better MPG. My wife really didnt want to get rid of her Durango since it had three row seating (dont ask me we only...
