I have had the pleasure of having a rare in My life. That would be the "Special" '93 Capri that I have dubbed a Sheep in Wolfs clothing. '93 was the year Mercury decided a good idea would be dress a base like Turbo and see if anybody noticed, As a pure Fun ride this car is ahead of it's time. If it were to be released today it think it would be neck and neck with it's rear wheel drive cousin The Mazda MX-5. Performance is great!!! The results of neglect were easily corrected with standard and available parts. The A/c still works and was part of the XR@ upgrade as was the working, at 20mph cruise control. Mileage has been between 18 and 24 MPH depending on type. Do I recomend this??? Oh YEAH!

Fun Hey, it's a convertible

The best is putting the top down and going around the twisty back roads. We live in central PA and it's fun driving the back windy roads. Sometimes I would like more power but I have the normally aspirated engine. We paid $3,000 for it. It's not perfect but when the top is down with my wife and I driving a nice road - Heaven

Awesome Car

This car is amazing. It is not only my first car but the first time I ever drove a stick. This car is a bit delicate but that comes with it being so light weight. If you treat it well it will also treat you well. It doesn't accelerate very quickly but unless you're planning on racing that really shouldn't be an issue. All in all it's an amazing car.

The Mercury Capri XR2 is a quick, nimble, and most of all a fun car to drive! A major up and down side to the Capri is that there is/was not many of them on the road so finding parts can be a problem. After 150,000 miles the engine, transmission, and turbo are still in great shape! (Although the clutch was replaced at 135,000 Miles) Watch for cracked or distorted rear windows on the soft top as they can be expensive to replace. Some electrical system problems can arise (Blower motor, MAF, headlight motors) Rubber gear shift linkages are prone to wear at or around 100,000 miles. (5 speed) Keep in mind that this is a sports car with McPherson strut up front and it will ride like a tank!

I bought this car through Quality Auto (Ocala, FL) after my Saturn SL2 was totalled in an accident. I have had some minor wiring issues with the car (due mostly to the previous owner's installation of a premium sound system, speakers, et al.). Otherwise, this car has been great in performance and reliability. I have extreme difficulty in finding parts/accessories as Ford no longer manufactures said parts. --tjb---

I bought this little convertible used in '97 with about 45K mi.. The dealer was less than reputable not advising the car had been in a wreck . I am the 2nd owner; the 1st 3 yrs the vehicle was completely trouble free. Body construction a bit flimsy, dents when leaned on too hard, but handling, pick up, comfort and maintenance are all worth overlooking this flaw. Then there's the gas mileage-30+ mpg in city traffic and who knows what on the highway-its always great! Oil, Filter, Tires and the usual maintenance and this is a great little car. I've been more than pleasantly surprised!

Bought this from a dealer off of Ebay about a year ago. Its been a great little car, and cost about the same as my first car (Opel GT) 20 years ago. Motor/tranny is solid, parts aren't too hard to come by, other than body specific things. Economical top-down fun.

Yay Capri

I love my car. People come up to me all the time and ask me what kind of car it is, and tell me how cute it is. I am very attatched to the car, I don't know how I'll part with it.

I love my capri! I have had very few problems with my capri! The only major fix was the distibutor and that was because the car has 134,000 miles on it! It's great to put the top down and go! I couldn't of asked for a better car!Its a great first car ,not to fast, but not to slow!

Bought this car used from a dealer in TN. Paid 4300.00 cash . Never heard of this model before, but it was in good shape and it looked fun. Day after I bought it, tokk it out on a 150 mile trip along TN/KY backroads didnt know what to expect, but so far it has performed great and is really alot of fun. Took it out in the rain recently adn it worked fine as well! Im liking the car fine!

My Capri has been extremely reliable, fuel-efficient, and best of all, FUN! Drop the top, put on my shades and every traffic jam seems to not matter. I've gotten a lot of use out of the backseat, too, having hauled my Labrador, boxes and furniture, and the occasional personmore useful as an everyday driver than the Miata. It's very relaible, rarely causing a problem with 133,000 miles on the odometer. The Capri is basically a Mazda 323, so the engine is better than the typical American 4-cylindar. As it's getting older, common parts like exhaust systems are hard to find.

Almost perfect

At 104,000 my Capri still runs well and offers a fun ride to and from work. It's best in the summer, when I drop the top and take a twisty road home. Not big on accelleration. It understeers at the limit, but at 8/10ths you really can't tell. I'd buy a new Turbo if they still made 'em.
