When you want a luxury car that is also a sporty car, in period, you looked to the Mercury Cougar. As Mercury stated in their advertising, “No car lives two lives so beautifully. Better than just a sports car, better than just a luxury car. It’s a car not like anybody else’s car!” This light blue example has a blue interior and is reported to have approximately 50,000 actual miles. The car runs with the stout 351-cid V-8 engine that is matched to an automatic transmission. An AM/FM radio, new tires and new mag-style wheels are additional highlights. Exclusive features of the XR-7 versus the regular Cougar set it apart from the norm. These included lighting groups, bucket seats, cherry woodgrain interior trim components, instrument panel assist handle, warning lights, tachometer, alternator and oil pressure gauges, to name but a few.
