Send pics of what you have, no black cars, must be very nice, over 50k miles need not apply. Im not interested in driving across the country, preferably local or within 100 miles.

Send pics and info to me -- mmondro@ford.com

Include price and pertinent info.

Not even 58,000 miles? You can always get it shipped....:o

Matt, Mercury only built 11,052 of these cars to begin with; the majority of those are black, and with the wrecks and all, a bunch of the color cars are already gone.

I can understand the mileage limit, but why restrict yourself to a location radius? IMO, you're going to have better luck looking nation-wide and then deciding either to get the car shipped, or taking a one-way flight and driving the car home.

Cheese, I totally agreee. Im looking nationwide still and if the right car pops up, ill do what i have to do. I did have a bad experience once on a long distance deal that i had shipped in and it still burns me, they even sent me a bunch of digital pics. So thats why im still a bit gun shy on just looking at pics then shipping one. So id have to fly out and see it in person. Im trying to close the deal on a MM today. If it were me id probably go for hotmercs black one, but the wife absolutely doesnt want black. Id love to have one pop up close to home, but i know that might not happen. With my post I was hoping to draw out someone who was thinking about selling and hadn't put it up yet.

I appreciate all the leads. I already have a verbal commitment to buy a car so I think im done. Going to get it Thursday, so i will let you guys see a few pics when I get it in my driveway. Its a car you all know. After looking for a few weeks, the cars and condition run the gamut. Anything you want from $5k beaters with 170k on them to $32k with 700 miles. Anyway this has been kind of fun but in a way im glad we're done.

I know what you mean - tough to sell in this market. The right buyer has to come along.
