Description:
The Merkur XR4Ti is an oddity even without this funky paint job. I thought I'd
add a few cars that aren't necessarily rice but still should be able to
raise a few eyebrows. |

0-60: Yes. But seriously, doesn't this paint job remind anyone of Dale Earnhardt's old Wrangler scheme from the '80s?

Stock Merkurs that came here to the US are slow... and kinda unreliable. But it's possible to import every part to upgrade them to Cosworth status, and then they're great sleepers. The Cosworth Merkur is a fast little car.

I didn't even know what Merkurs were up untill 5 years ago, when there were 3 of them that suddenly showed up in town, I didn't even know what country they came from and was to embarrased to ask....

It looks like it's about to take on a Datsun? That's my only guess.

My cousin had a silver Merkur back in '89 or '90, when I was about five or six years old. I still remember riding in it, and thinking it was pretty cool at the time.

To answer your questions - the Merkur ran a best time of 15.26, and the other car is a 13 second turbocharged Mazda RX-3.

but with just a few mods a merk is down into the 13's easy. same engine as the svo stangs of the 80's, and from what i have heard those could do high 13's stock. The fastest one i have ever seen was in a muscle mustangs and fast fords mag and it was running 10's.
