Well I am sad if mercury goes. But they have been sliping in the recent years. Where's mercurys racing edge gone these days. The cougar being reborn would definitely keep them afloat. From 67 to the mid 90's they were mercurys answer for the mustang. Well they could have retro fitted it like the stang. To me owning a 84 cougar and a 90 lincoln mark vii. They are truely from mercurys and lincolns glory days. Both boasting the 5.0. When lincoln was competeing for speed with luxury. Both are aging dinosaurs and saught after by collectors. But seriously if mercury goes its a legecy of years gone.
