Mercury Time Machine.

Personally I like the 70ish Capri. It had its own personality rather than being a copy
of the Mustang

I like the white version of the Black Magic a wee bit more but this is a beauty.

[@johnjuarez8005]

What was the advertised HP on it? Thanks

I would love to have an fully equipped 1986 5.0 Capri T top 5 spd rock crusher gear box 6”dual stainless pipes and my Car has to be A/C equipped and rich soft & supple Corinthian leather Kona shocks and a dozen other items and a set of the highest performance GT General grabbers tires

Interesting, but honestly with the 120 hp 255 and an autobox, why bother. I started driving around this time and had plenty of cars that were even slower, but at least they didn't pretend to be sports cars. I do get the originality, and relative rarity, so props for that. My memories of an early Fox body Mustang were made in a 4cyl, 4 speed 79 - I remember the rear axle being all over the road - entertaining.

A bit disappointing it's not a stick, but that engine could be souped-up very nicely. Turbocharge? 🤔

You don't do that to a car like this. You keep something like this original.

The Mercury Capri should never be in competition with mustang. "Ford puts it on wheels."

I like the older models of the Capris that didnt carbon copy the Mustang
...I think they looked better than these newer styled Capris. Just saying 😊
