Pros: What do you like about 2008 Mercury Milan?
It's a nice size. Not too big, nor too small.
It's very quiet when cruising down the highway.
The MP3 player is great. I can get hundreds of songs on 1 CD in the MP3 format.
The available satellite radio receiver and Sync system is fantastic.
Cons: How would you improve 2008 Mercury Milan?
Rear visibility is awful. I'm glad I have the reverse sensor assist.
The auto transmission selector needs more positions than Drive and Low. Sometimes I want to drop down one gear to get ready to pass. If I drop to Low then it goes down to 2nd or 3rd at highway speeds. It would be more fun with the auto-stick option that the 2010 Milan V6 has.
2008 Mercury Milan Review:
I've been wanting a Milan since they came out in 2006. I bought an '05 Sable LS the year before, so I figured I'd be practical and wait until I really needed a car. So this past year I finally decided I'd been practical enough and got a year old '08 Mllan V6 (not the premier though).
I can't believe how solid, tight, quiet and comfortable it is to drive and ride in. So much so that it's almost boring... which I like.
The V6 performance is more than adequate, except for the auto trans limitations I mentioned above. My average gas mileage (75% highway/25% city) is 27.4 mpg. Not bad at all since it's rated at 26 highway by the EPA. I'm very happy with my Milan.

Pros: What do you like about 2008 Mercury Milan?
I like the gas mileage.
I have a manual transmission & love it.
This car has lots of class & style and I like the silent way it drives.
I also love the tail lamps - they're very different.
Cons: How would you improve 2008 Mercury Milan?
I had a very hard time trying to see over my back window when I first got my car. To this day I use my rear view mirrors to guide me while backing up otherwise I'd be in deep trouble.
2008 Mercury Milan Review:
I bought this car in 2008 & I absolutely love it!! It gets respect on the road & lots of looks. I've had many people whom I don't know tell me how good my car looks (I only keep it clean constantly). Mercury has my vote for making an outstanding, dependable, and classy vehicle!!

2008 Mercury Milan Review:
I received this car for a birthday present and have not been disappointed. It is cheaper than the altima that I drove first and looks just as good to me! I own the V6 premier model and have never been happier. I traded a Ford Expedition for this car and haven't missed my Expedition yet! I was pleasantly surprised by this car because I am usually a foreign car kind of person. You will not be disappointed!
