The Mercury Zephyr is one of the Mercury entries the open record knows by name and by date — in 1978, and by little else. That is not nothing: a name in the catalogue is where a car's story starts to be recoverable.
Where it sits
Its contemporaries in the catalogue — the Toyota Supra, the GM (General Motors) Saab 900, the Mazda RX-7 — show what else the money bought that year. Its Mercury stablemates include the Mercury Bobcat and the Mercury Capri.
What it costs now
There is no federal ownership record for the Mercury Zephyr — it predates the complaint database or was never sold in the United States — so MotorJury publishes no running-cost figure for it. For a car of this age the price is set by the collector market and the condition of the individual example, not by a formula.
The record
The open record for the Mercury Zephyr carries no verified engine, output, weight or price yet. MotorJury does not fill gaps with guesses; this entry gives the model a home in the catalogue and grows as sourced specifications and photographs arrive. Corrections: corrections@motorjury.com.
