Mercury Cougar XR7-G History. The year 1967 was sensational for Lincoln-Mercury, with the introduction of Cougar exceeding all sales forecast expectations. The Cougar racing team was very successful as well, placing second in the SCCA group II sedan racing series, known today as TransAm. Dan Gurney was the team captain of the Cougar racing team and, as part of his contract, Lincoln-Mercury could use his name and likeness for advertising and promotion.

Comments: Mercury joined the pony car race full speed with its Cougar, based on a stretched version of the Ford Mustang. Only a two door hardtop was available with standard simulated leather bucket seats, hideaway headlights, and a V8 engine, impressive enough to be named Motor Trend’s Car of the Year.

In 1997, Ford stopped production of the Cougar, putting the nameplate on hiatus until 1999. At the time it had been planning a third generation of the Probe compact, but to give Mercury a much-needed new face, the car in development was made a new Mercury Cougar.

The first-generation Cougar emerged in 1967, and was sold through 1970. A pony car developed in the wake of the success of Ford's Mustang, the original Cougar bore all the hallmarks that had made the Mustang a runaway success. It was offered as a hardtop coupe in the first year, in either base or XR-7 trim, with a choice of V-8 engines that ranged from 200 to 335 horsepower.

Whether it's a 4 or 6 cylinder it is similar to a newer Toyota …celica, which is ridden by guys, as is the cougar. This is one of those if you have to ask.. but even big guys are drivin small 4cyl eco cars nowadays. You make the car, it does not make you.
