This 1988 Merkur XR4Ti is finished in red over black leather and is powered by a turbocharged 2.3-liter inline-four paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. Features include a sunroof, air conditioning, cruise control, a Sony cassette stereo, heated front seats, fog lights, and 15″ alloy wheels. The car has spent most of its life in New York and was acquired by the seller in 2019.
The car is finished in red, and the seller notes that the front fascia, rear spoiler, and lower cladding were refinished in 2020. Exterior details include a sunroof, rear wiper, body-colored side mirrors, and integrated fog lights. Ford emblems were added by the seller, and the removed Merkur badges will accompany the car.
Silver 15″ basketweave-style alloy wheels are mounted with 195/60 Goodyear Eagle RS-A rubber up front and Goodyear Eagle GA tires in the rear.
The cabin features heated front seats trimmed in black leather along with a matching dash, door panels, and carpeting. Amenities include cruise control, air conditioning, a Sony stereo with a cassette receiver, and power windows.
A two-spoke steering wheel frames a 150-mph speedometer and a 7k-rpm tachometer. The five-digit odometer shows 71k miles.
The turbocharged 2.3-liter inline-four was factory rated at 145 horsepower and sends power to the rear wheels through a three-speed C3 automatic transmission. A replacement exhaust system has been fitted, and an oil change was reportedly performed in 2021.
