Saw a mercury cougar on the way home today w/ a body kit and a Roush badge on the back? Did they actually make a cougar like they do with the mustangs?

I think by the time of the Fox Body, the Cougars were on the Thunderbird chassis.
My friend had a 68 XR-7 though... fun.. Too bad half the electrical systems didn't work. No taillights, at all, which means you don't get the cool sequential turn lights. And then the exhaust started leaking into the cabin. My, that was fun.2006 Mazda 3 hatchback manual

Mercury made a capri (nor the convertible), whihc was basically a mustang with a different front end.
The latest model of cougar, was pretty nice. I don't know if rousch made some parts or not. They might have. Anyway the cougar did have quite a few things goign for it. The duratech could be pushed up to nearly 300 hp and many of the SVT Contour parts could be swapped to make handling quite good.
There were some problems with the design (plastic water pump impellers are one issue) but the Duratech was a porsche design that Ford screwed up.
The platform was the first generation conintued to the Tribute, the 6, X-type, etc., and will most likely be quite a few cars when all is done.2003 Protege5
