But I don`t think the Mondeo will be coming over. 14.72@ 92.6 mph www.modularV8.com "CLUTCH KILLER" and also recently known as the DRIVETRAIN KILLER

Mercury needs to make the AWD version if they want to corner the "younger" crowd. Or would that be the "enthusiast". Maybe a cross between the Cougar and the Mondeo. But hey that would be cool '96 Mystique, Zetec, MTX. ---Mods--- Removed both intake resonators and airbox. Installed APC air filter and APC crankcase ventilation filter. Removed exhaust resonator. Installed XM Satellite Radio. Replaced bad alternator and 175a fusible link...much fun! Intake plenum---GONE!!!! My car growls louder than yours. If I can't buy it, I'll build it...Trust Me!!!!

People won't enthusiastically buy their products if theres no excitement in driving them. I take no enjoyment in plowing around in a 400+ lb SUV or a top heavy, retarded looking minivan....if they focused on quality, safety, practicality and fun factor...they'd have no problems. Maybe it's just me though :rolleyes: 1999 Silver Frost SVT #609 of 2760 Born on 12/3/98 KKM Intake Removed Resonator 35% Window Tint all around Tinted Tail Lights ElKy Mesh Grilles HID Dyno'ed at 175.3HP/155.5TQ "How much must I live through just to get away..."
