I was looking at the Classic Car page and saw something behind the Mustang.

, its ok, but sure as hell not 10K$!
Maybe 3-4K
I'd go up a bit higher.
These cars are 31 years old minimum. Most are junkers/restoration candidates and the small remainder are in good shape. So it's rare to find one of these even in the shape this one is in.
If I were able to pick up a fox Cougar though it would be a white 87 XR7 with a gray interior. I like the 87 XR7 better than the 88 surprisingly.
I can't remember the last time I saw an original paint 87 XR-7
Besides on this site.

What was different? Just the striping on the body?
87 has lower body stripes and 10 holes. 88 has monochromatic paint/moldings and turbine wheels. I prefer the look of the 87. But that's a personal preference.
Because of those stickers, this car is incredibly rare. An 87 with original paint would be something to have.
I have 2 88s already (An original owner) and I am working on a 3rd so this is not for me right now.
If it's still for sale in the fall, look out !
Man, I thought I liked the 87-88 Cougars!
Growing up, a girl back home had a 87 XR7 brand new, Blue with the grey lower stripes and 10 holes. Man, that was a beautiful car.
