Yep, there were rumors in (at least) Car and Driver about two years ago that
Ford would orphan the Capri convertible in '94. Did you need ANOTHER reason
to believe you bought the better car?

Read (either in the MCA mag or here) at least a year ago that you frequently
hear Capri owners say "I shoulda bought a Miata" but you NEVER hear Miata
owners say "I shoulda bought a Capri."
