Re: jesda wtf.
Capri was a cool little car. Had a neighbor with a yellow one with a black vinyl top.

Re: jesda wtf.
I remember a video from 99 or so, of a Capri on an autoX course. The course was very tight from what I could see, so the driver was "drifting" to swing the car around the turns. It was actually quite entertaining.

Re: jesda wtf.
One of the owners of rally america, he lives in MN, Bob Olson has a Cosworth Capri rally car. He also had a 76? porsche 911 rally car for a long time before it went to my friend ryan. Bob is a very fantastic man.
He and ryan also built a rx-8 rally car.
Here is Bob's porsche with a newer owner.
And his Capri.
And I found this while looking for a pic of the capri.
Look at the guys that DNF'd on the very bottom of the page.
