Mercury Cougar is the name applied to a diverse series of automobiles sold by the Mercury brand of Ford Motor Company's Lincoln-Mercury Division from 1967 to 2002.As was common with Mercury vehicles, the Cougar shared basic platforms with Ford models. Originally, this was the Mustang, later the Thunderbird, and the last a version of the Contour/Mondeo.The Cougar was important to Mercury's image for many years, and advertising often identified its dealers as being "at the sign of the cat."[1] Female models holdingbig cats on leashes were used on Cougar ads in the early 1970s.[2]The car was assembled at the Dearborn Assembly Plant (DAP) (one of six plants within the Ford Rouge Center) in Dearborn, Michigan from 1967 to 1973, at the San Jose Assembly Plant in Milpitas, California from 1968 into early 1969 and at the Lorain Assembly Plant (LAP) in Lorain, Ohio from 1974 to 1997. Sixth generation (1983–1988)Sixth generation An all-new Cougar greeted buyers in 1983; gone were the sedan and station wagon models which were facelifted and moved under the Marquis nameplate. The Cougar sported a completely new aerodynamic body, but retained the same chassis. This restyle was shared with its sister car, the Thunderbird, with the two becoming the first examples of the new "aero-look" design, which would eventually spread throughout the Ford line and ultimately the entire industry. The major difference between the two was the side window treatments; the Cougar had a more formal notchback with a nearly vertical rear window and upswept quarter windows. This made the Cougar look more aerodynamic, as well as more exciting, when compared to previous Cougars. The new look was such a hit, it outsold the Thunderbird for 1983. Because of the money spent in restyling both models, the interiors were left mostly unchanged from 1982. The GS (but not badged as such) and LS models carried over from the previous year; however, the XR-7 did not, as there was not yet a performance version ready. The engine lineup changed, as the only two engines offered were the 232-in3 (3.8-L) V6 and the 302-in3 (5.0-L) V8. The 390-mm (15.3-in) TRX wheels were an option.[citation needed]First facelift version (1986)After its redesign in 1983, the Cougar remained mostly unchanged for 1984. The XR-7 returned and for the first time, its standard engine was not a V8 or V6, but a turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Similar to the Thunderbird Turbo Coupe, the XR-7 came only with the 145 hp (108 kW) 140-in3turbocharged I4. The XR-7 also featured blacked-out window trim, wide body side mouldings and two-tone paint in silver with charcoal grey lower (or the reverse combination) with tri-band striping to separate it from the base Cougars. A performance suspension was also standard. A three-speed automatic or a five-speed manual were offered on the XR-7. Also for 1984, the 3.8-L V6 switched from a carburetor to throttle-body fuel injection.Subtle exterior changes, such as a new Mercedes-Benz-esque grille and new taillights were just a few of the many changes, as a whole new interior greeted buyers for 1985. This new interior featured a digital instrument cluster which lent a futuristic touch to the Cougar, but it was only available on base Cougars.The 1986 Cougar was a carryover year; it was supposed to be redesigned this year, but with sales continuing to be strong, Ford decided to push it ahead to 1987. The biggest changes were under the hood, as the 302 V8 received new sequential electronic fuel injection (SEFI), which boosted power to 150 hp (112 kW); a 30 hp (22 kW) improvement over the previous year. The Cougar XR-7 continued to offer only the turbocharged I4, but it got a power increase to 155 hp (116 kW).Total Production 1983: 75,743 1984: 131,190 1985: 117,274 1986: 135,9041987–88 Cougar LSModel years1983–1988AssemblyUnited States: Lorain, OhioBody style2-door coupeLayoutFR layoutPlatformFord Fox platformEngine4.9 L (302 cu in) 5.0 Windsor V8 3.8 L (232 cu in) Essex V6 2.3 L (140 cu in) Lima I4 turboTransmissionFive-speed Tremec T-5 manual Three-speed C5 automatic Four-speed AOD automaticWheelbase104 in (254 cm) (1980–86) 104.2 in (265 cm) (1987–88)Length197.6 in (502 cm) (1983–86) 200.8 in (510 cm) (1987–88)Width71.1 in (181 cm) (1983–86) 70.1 (178 cm) (1987–88)Height53.4 in (136 cm) (1983–86) 53.8 in (137 cm) (1987–88)Curb weight3050–3500 lb (1400–1600 kg)RelatedLincoln Continental Ford LTD Ford Thunderbird Ford Fairmont Mercury Marquis Ford Granada Mercury Zephyr I will help set Reasonable Transportation or just drive/fly in and Drive home.Thank You For Looking at My Auction Here is a copy of the Auto Fax, No bad History any where,Viewed at Vehiclehistory.com VIN 1MEBP92F4DH660932 Model Year 1983 Make Mercury Model Cougar Trim 2-Door Sedan Body Type SEDAN 2-DR Manufacturer Mercury Engine Type 5.0L V8 OHV 16V Production UNITED STATES This data was originally accessed on at which time it was current with the National Motor Vehicle Title Information System (NMVTIS) WHY OUR REPORTS ARE YOUR #1 CHOICE Odometer Information Date Problems Reported Data Source Mileage None ADDITIONAL ODOMETER BRAND INFORMATION Odometer Does Not Exceed Mechanical Limits No Odometer Alteration No Odometer Replacement No Odometer Discrepancy Not Exempt from Odometer Disclosure No Other Odometer Problem Exists Junk & Salvage Information Reporting Occurrence Reporting Entity Information Date Obtained Vehicle Intended for Export?

NMVTIS is intended to serve as a reliable source of title and brand history for automobiles, but it does not contain detailed information regarding a vehicle's repair history. All states, insurance companies, and junk and salvage yards are required by federal law to regularly report information to NMVTIS. However, NMVTIS does not contain information on all motor vehicles in the United States because some states are not yet providing their vehicle data to the system. Currently, the data provided to NMVTIS by states is provided in a variety of time frames; while some states report and update NMVTIS data in "real-time" (as title transactions occur), other states send updates less frequently, such as once every 24 hours or within a period of days. Information on previous, significant vehicle damage may not be included in the system if the vehicle was never determined by an insurance company (or other appropriate entity) to be a "total loss" or branded by a state titling agency. Conversely, an insurance carrier may be required to report a "total loss" even if the vehicle's titling-state has not determined the vehicle to be "salvage" or "junk." Before making a decision to purchase a vehicle, consumers may wish to obtain an independent vehicle inspection an NMVTIS Vehicle History Report (from an approved NMVTIS data provider - look for the NMVTIS logo), and consult other available vehicle information resources.
