Aerodynamic styling, contemporary and classic, lent instant classic lines to the Cat and separated it nicely to the similar Ford Thunderbird. You either loved it or hated it. In the case of the Cougar, though, it helped sales and separated those with classic styling tastes from those that loved the new swoopy styling of the T-Bird. Currently the Cougars are enjoying a resurgence in popularity due to their availablility and performance potential. They are usually reasonably priced and hold up very well over time.
Fuel economy is decent, and dependability is the norm.
From mild to wild, you can build a Cougar to suit your tastes and still not break the bank. Any way you look at it, the Cougar is a different and sensible alternative to Mustangs and T-Birds. This section is now fully integrated to provide owners with information about their cars, and to provide tips when moving on from a Fox Cougar to an MN-12 Cat. Since December 1997, COOL CATS has provided Internet browsers with technical and general information about their Cougars. Rest assured that as long as I am involved with this site, you will always have a home here.
