who would take who bone stock? 99 v6 automatic mercury cougar or 98 bonne nonsc?

it would be close, but im goin with the bonneville. but if the merc had the 5 speed it would beat the bonnie

the v6 is rated at 170 hp with 165 fp of torque.

your SLE should kill it.

well that definately puts a grin on my face!

you must remember that they are also lighter.

It will be close.

I'd go for it...I went for many cars when I had an L27, all were much lighter than me. They were no match for my torque. L36 with 205 hp and 230 peak tq...IMO you'd beat him.

Never did like those new Cougars.

i hate the newer cougars, and the driver acts like hes drivin a z06.

yeah...ditto, huge ditto, one of Fords other bad decisions...FWD crap box
after '73 Cougars went downhill, but then again so did everything, but the cougars never came back

Not by much. I think they weigh over 3000 lbs.

i raced a newer V6 cougar (on the track of course) and absolutely slaughtered him with my L27....your SLE will have no problems
