Features of the Series
1991 to 1993 Mercury Capri

All the 1991-1993 models had four-wheel disc brakes, with 10.2 inch vented discs in front and 8.7 inch solid disks in back and the front suspension was a conventional MacPherson strut system, with stabilizer bar.

The rear suspension was a fully independent trapezoidal link system, with MacPherson struts and a stabilizer bar.

The Capri had better straight line performance than the normally aspirated 1.6 liter Mazda Miata. The lighter Miata naturally handled slightly better than the Capri in the slalom course. This comparison was the result of a July 1990 Road & Track magazine test of the Capri XR2i and the Mazda Miata.

The US-legal Capri "Series II" model was not available until July 1990 and was introduced as an early 1991 model.
