If you want a High perfromance Low cost Car, You need the Merkur Xr4ti, It
was produced by ford in 1985-1989, and sold in Lincoln-Merkury Dealerships.
It was made to compete with Bmw 3 series and other cars in its class. It is
low cost, a high quality one will only be about 3500, they are powered by a
2.3l Turbo Single overhead cam, you would want one with the t-9 tranny, or
someone that converted it to a t-5 since they have 170hp and boost of 15psi
stock, the automatic c-3(which I have) has 130hp, since it has a mild cam and
boost is limited to 10-12psi, on either one, you can easily increase the
boost to 20psi, and most mildly xr4ti's make 285 horsepower and are very
reliable. The car has on of the best aerodynamics of anycar. You should
really consider using one of these cars for autox.
