Used Mercury Cougar for Sale near Wood Ridge, NJ

Could handle better and the 5.0 should be the HO like the Mustang had, but it is what it is. It still turns quite a few heads and has enough power to get me in a bit of trouble, if it weren't for the rust (its driven in the snow and is over 20 years old now) I'd keep it forever. It is a bit helpless driving in the snow, but snow tires and some weight in the trunk would fix that. It's been basically trouble free in the 8 years I've owned it and gets good gas mileage for an older V8 (even better with new exhaust and headers, the factory exhaust was rediculously undersized for this car) Still a great comfortable, RWD, V8 car as any good car should be.

its an XR-7 accelerates pretty rapidly, brakes great, sticks to the road well for weighing two and a quarter tons original engine head cracked now has a 5.0 ho 302 engine exterior is two tone maroon and silver interior is red gets 18-21 miles to the gallon gotta add a quart of trans fluid every month and a half awesome fun to drive

This car was my very first baby. She was awful in the snow, but other than that, she was excellent. Minimal upkeep needed. Also, she had pretty decent acceleration for a non-performance, or highend, vehicle.

it gets up and goes pretty quick and it sound amazing i would want to put a new paint job on it and put some black rims and dual exaust on it.

Performance was similar to a Cougar I rode in in Wyandotte in 1984 spring. The finish was different. The rattle in build quality was 302 motor piston swept area rounded to 5 oh valve seal fatuige. Spark plug anti fouler!
