Mustangs sold in Mexico were a cross-breed between Capris and Mustangs. I think they had the Capri fender flares and nose, but had a Ford oval on it rather than Mercury. Looked pretty badass.

Edit: I hate dial-up.

Edit again:

I can honestly say I did not know that. It looks like it's mostly Capri with an 83-84 Mustang nose. I'm not sure if I like it but I keep staring at it...

I thought they didn't make a Capri notch? Did someone get the welder out?

When I think of a Mexican Mustang I think of one with 13" Daytons sticking out of the wheelwells and a velvet interior.

It may be having a identity crisis but it is far from butchered. This may be the coolest car on this site.
