yes, you can get melina blue here....along with black, silver, and a couple of shades of green.
And then you have a couple of red ones which are around (imported i assume) and a couple of alternative colours through recent paint jobs

Cougar in Italy has sold bad...also for the lack of advertising, in TV and all the rest
my cougar in the future will become Ebony black....i love this color
so my cougar will look "aggressive"
Lorenzo, unfortunately the manifolds you are interested in are no longer available.
There are some similar ones on this eBay link:

this link reminds me to the start page of ebay.uk
so i can't see nothing
thanks anyway
well i'm about to go in italy for one day
with my Felino
it will be 800 Km perfectly...my cougar never betrayed in 12 years
I drive many times like this:
"Every light i see it's green
My Cougar it's triple-plated chrome
motor running
now i'm gonna learn
nothing else takes us
to get these thrills with our Cat
wheels of fire
burn the night
we live to ride our Cat"
Thanks and see you all soon-))

ok now i can see the link...thanks
"FORD MONDEO MK2 96-00 2.5 V6 ST200 STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST MANIFOLDS & Y-PIPE"
Clicking on:"See compatible vehicles"
and entering the data of my cougar
I thought ... "I hope they are compatible ..."
but the answer is:
"This item does not fit Ford Cougar 1998 EC_ [1998-2001] Coupe"
well maybe i can find this exhaust manifolds on ebay U.States
the americans are mad for the Cat...they have all parts of tuning for cougar
Keep searching....
"chi cerca trova"
"he who seeks finds"
or maybe I could find on the moon
I like that sentiment Lorenzo very inspiring!
yes I saw it for the first time the Cougar in 2002, near milan
and I said, "This is my car"
well I just got back from Milan
800 km...
and the cougar has given me more satisfaction
and I brought with me some good things
left to me by my dear and lost dad
"Ford original books of technical assistance and training"
"Ford Cougar: new product introduction"
"Ford Cougar: Bodywork (Auto Body)"
"Ford Cougar: Global diagnostic system (WDS)"
"Ford Cougar: Noise and vibration, squeaks and beats, Cougar"
There are 4 original programs Ford...for the control unit
I had tried those available for the 2544cc, my displacement
execute it in Ford, with the global diagnostic system (WDS)
about 3 hours to reprogram the control unit
the more powerful control unit for 2544cc...is the first program ('98)
gives more torque at the opening of the secondary ducts of air (about 3,900 engine rpm)
ok it will fit

"But you must check if your existing Y-pipe has a 2 or 3 bolt flange and make sure you order yours with the same flange"
it will fit anyway?..or not?

on the cougar book...the exhaust manifolds are this:
first pic is manifolds of Cougar...in the left.. "C"
2nd pic is mondeo manifods
i see 3 bolt flange in left high pic of mondeo

it's correct?

The diagram at B in the drawing matches the manifolds in the pictures.
This diagram is for the later system with the 3 bolt flange.
Have a look under your car for a 20cm long flexible pipe at the front end of the single exhaust pipe.
This will have a 3 bolt mating face as at B and in the photos.

the Cougar book says for the diagram at B: engine exhaust Duratec - VE 2.5 with automatic transmission
Yeah i see the 3 bolt flange
right now i can't get under my felino...'cause for now i don't have the crick to raise a little the Cougar
this week will arrive 4 brake discs, shock absorbers and springs
maybe today i hope, so I'm going to mount ford workshop
and i will see if there's 2 or 3 bolt
but i'm sure at 90%...that my Cougar have exhaust manifolds as B diagram
'cause this Cougar book was written in June 1998
My Cougar was built in September '98 in Flat Rock (U.States)
It's Ford Cougar
Not Mercury Cougar
maybe some of my neighbor has the crick to raise a little bit the cougar
I'll see what I can do
my exhaust system is modified...i don't have the central cat...I replaced it with a direct pipe in stainless
and 2 tailpipes
the sound it's very good

Ok..
I'll check it out-)

buy the headers and worry about the fitting later, worst case senario is you have to buy a new catalytic converter and flexi this is something i have had to do and really isnt a big issue

Or give it a bit of thought and buy the correct one in the first place...saves wasting money on a new cat and feeling foolish afterwards.
