DESCRIPTION:
Capri sold more cars in its first year than any import in history. Here
’
s why:
Capri’s sexy looks had plenty to do with it.
But a lot of other things helped.
For openers, radial tires. They’re standard on Capri.
So are power front disc brakes. Styled steel wheels. Superbly sensitive rack-and-pinion steering (the type expensive sexy European cars haye). And a silky smooth floor shift.
To which Capri adds - still without adding to the price — front bucket seats in soft, soft vinyl that looks and feels like real leather. A very European instrument panel — handsome woodgrain effect. Full carpeting underfoot. Flow-thru ventilation. Room for four adults.
Easy maintenance. And small-car gas economy.
All standard.
You can spend extra if you want to, and get automatic transmission, sun roof, vinyl top, decor group interior (shown) or - still another Capri option - a gutsy new engine (2000cc, overhead cam four).
But that’s about it for options.
It’s what is included in Capri’s shamefully low price tag that’s important.
No wonder Capri started breaking records its first year here.
No wonder Capri was promptly named “import car of the year.”
Capri. The Sexy European.
Imported for Lincoln-Mercury.
Capri. The sexy European. Now in a more spirited version.
It’s no surprise when a car is sexy, European and expensive.
Capri caused a sensation by being sexy, European and inexpensive. And surprised everybody except us by selling more cars in its first two years in America than any import in history. Capri makes history again with its new, more spirited version — equipped with a gutsy 2600 cc. V-6 engine, a match for cars costing twice the price.
But there’s more to the new V-6 than what’s under the hood. Blackout rocker panels and rear end trim. Chrome twin exhausts. Styled steel wheels and fat radial tires. All standard. And that’s not all. Rack and pinion steering. Power front disc brakes. And beefed-up suspension for crisp handling.
There’s still more: A silky smooth floor shift. Full instrumentation including tachometer. Front bucket seats in soft vinyl that looks and feels like real leather. Room for four adults. Full carpeting underfoot. And a sophisticated instrument panel with handsome woodgrain effect.
If you insist on spending extra, Capri can offer you automatic transmission, a sun roof, vinyl top, and decor group interior (illustrated). But Capri doesn’t need many options because it comes equipped with so much. So much for so little. That’s Capri. That’s the kind of spirit we need more of!
Buckle up for safety.
Imported for Lincoln-Mercury.
Capri. The first sexy European under ,600.
Sticker price, Destination, title, dealer preparation, taxes and options extra. Decor group as shown 8.
Up to now there was only one kind of sexy European car.
The expensive kind.
Capri has changed things for the better. By being decidedly sexy and authentically European — for under 00.
And what Capri includes in that 00 tag is enough to make the expensive sexy European cars blush.
Radial tires are standard. As are power front disc brakes. Styled steel wheels. Precise rack-and-pinion steering. And a silky smooth four-speed floor shift.
That’s for starters. Capri goes on to give you front bucket seats in soft, soft vinyl that looks and feels like real leather. A sophisticated European dash with rocker switches and the rich look of woodgrain. Full carpeting underfoot. Flow-thru ventilation. Room for four adults. Small-car gas economy and easy maintenance.
Options? Sun roof. Vinyl top. Automatic transmission. And the decor group interior.
Capri also comes in two other models. The Capri 2000, with an overhead cam four. And, newest, most passionate of all, the Capri 2600 V-6.
But the sexy thing about Capri is what you get without spending extra.
That’s why Capri sold more cars in its first year here than any other import in history.
Imported for Lincofn-Mercury.
