To round out this list I have a car that I’ve wanted to try but never really pulled the trigger on.

The Mercury Capri was Ford’s take on the drop-top roadster formula. It was released around the same time as the first-generation Mazda Miata. But unlike the Miata, it didn’t sell very well. It was also plagued with water leaks and other quality issues.

Still, I absolutely adore its looks. I mean, check out that paint and those wheels.

This one is only $2,100 in Pine City, Minnesota, on Facebook Marketplace. That makes it cheaper than a Miata, too!


That’s it for this week! Since I started this series I’ve watched how the pandemic has been changing local car prices. Vehicles that were an easy $1,000 before are becoming $2,000 or even $3,000 cars.

It’s becoming harder to find what I’d say are truly awesome deals without getting behind the wheel of something that’s one harsh pothole away from the scrapyard. Some gems are still out there, but they end up selling before I can even finish writing these.

Know of a weird car for sale on Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist? Drop it down in the comments or in my email! If the car’s still for sale, I may feature it on a future entry.
