Black XR-7 5.0 auto. Great gas mileage, awesome performance. Didn't have to make an appointment to pass on the highway. Very economical in my 130 mile daily commute. Comfortable driving position minimized fatigue on long trips. I wish I never sold it!

I loved this car, this was my 1st car.. the motor was a 3.8L V6, had decent power and overall pretty solid, the entire time i owned it, the only thing that needed replacing was a power steering pump which required a special tool. I owned that car for a little over 1 year and at times wish i kept it. I had a stereo system in it, a strobe kit in the reverse lights, headlights and interior as well.

Lots of Torque, heavy but with good reason, the car was loaded for 1988. Best thing about it, it was built on the fox chassis. So most 79 to 93 mustang parts would fit. Mileage was good on the highway thanks to 2.73 gears in the axle, but in town left something to be desired.

"If you can get it started it's yours" This is an original, untouched 88 Cougar... It's nothing overly special, but with only 57 000 kms.... Pristine paint and interior... who could say no? It was given to us by a relative who hadn't driven it in over two years..... The car has a fully loaded burgandy interior... 3.8 litre V-6... And has spent it's entire life kept in doors when not driven... As soon as winter breaks, it's off to Ron and Bills for some minor paint work....then back on the street for some more Klicks!

great looking car with alot of modification potential, handled good for a mid size car. The LS had ALOT of options including car phone! alot of power options and with the XR7 you get the 5 liter V8! i would recommend to anyone!
