1995 Mercury Mystique Review
Price Estimate: $1,973 - $3,278
Edmunds' Expert Review
by the Edmunds Experts
What’s new
Introduced to replace the aging Topaz, the Mystique is a virtual twin to the Ford Contour. Euro-styling combined with German engineering results in a $20,000 American car that can compete with import sedans that cost nearly twice as much. You may choose between two trim levels, the base GS or the more luxurious LS. A 170-horsepower V6 engine is optional.

1995 Mercury Mystique LS 4dr Sedan
A one owner car purchased late 2006. Has one of the sweetest V6 engines I've known and terrific mileage at 20 city, 36 hwy. 4spd Auto sometimes seems soft, but no problems. Wiring harness had been replaced, oxy sensors in 04. Passes smog well above avg. AC has slow freon leak- when freon fully charged mpg drops to average 17/25. Without freon mpg goes back to 20/36 averages~ a "mystique … mystery". Engine and trans mounts [rubber/liquid filled] had to replace together. Smoothness returned to like new, hope they last another dozen years. Overall a joy to drive, must be well maintained to stay that way. Excellent European style tuned suspension.
Great Value

1995 Mercury Mystique GS 4dr Sedan
I bought the 4cyl. version of the car
new in Feb. 1995 to replace aHonda
Civic after reading european reviews of
the Mondeo (the eureopean version of
the Contour/Mystique) and knowing that
it was the European Car of the Year. I
love how it handles, and its
reliability. The only negative is the
quality of the interior plastics. A
Great value after 7.5 years and 90,000 …
miles.

1995 Mercury Mystique GS 4dr Sedan
I HAVE DRIVEN A MYSTIQUE FOR OVER3 YEARS
I BOUGHT HER USED. SHE HAS BEEN VERY
RELIABLE I HAVE ONLY 2 COMPLAINTS ABOUT
HER. SHE HAS A TICKEING NOISE WHERE
THE INDICATORS ARE AND NO ONE CAN SEEM
TO GET RID OF IT. THE OTHER PROBLEM IS
THAT I HAVE REPLACED THE POWER STEERING
ONCE AND IT HAS GONE OUT AGAIN.
Don't buy this car.

1995 Mercury Mystique GS 4dr Sedan
1995 was the first model year, and I've had nothing but problems from day 1. I only have 86,000 miles on it and am ready to get rid of it.
