    FS/FT '88 Merkur XR4Ti, black 5 speed

    Well something has come up and i may be getting rid of the old Merk. I'm open to offers and trades at the moment, so please don't ask for bottom dollar lowball stuff.

    The list:

    1988 Merkur XR4Ti
    114xxx original miles
    Turbo 2.3L
    Black with black/grey "Raven black" interior (highly sought after in these cars)
    5 speed RWD/IRS with new Zoom clutch and flywheel 10k ago
    Sunroof (pops up and slides back)
    New guibo (2 piece drive shaft rubber coupling)
    New battery
    E6 exhaust manifold
    2 sets of stock wheels, summer and snow tires

    It's mostly stock except for a Gillis manual boost controller, an LA3 computer and air meter swap (bigger Tbird meter, more aggressive timing/fuel curve ECU, has been repinned internally so the ECU can be swapped back to stock if needed), and a K+N cone filter. If you're familiar with these cars, you know they can be nasty fast for pretty cheap but they are a bit finicky. It has some minor issues that are typical for these cars that i won't bother to list but anyone with serous interest i'll go over it in detail with you. This car is NOT recommended for a daily driver...it's more of a performance toy type car but i have driven it to Columbus and back with no problems. It is NOT a drag car and has NOT been drag raced not by me or the previous owners. It has been well maintained considering its age.

    Here's pics:

    Right now it has been my summer DD for the last 3 years, but i only drive about 8 miles to work and in the 3 years i've owned it i've only put 11k miles on it. I get complements and gawkers everywhere i go in this car and it's been a real joy owning and driving it. If you like driving something unique then THIS is the car for you.
