Caliente

The Mercury Caliente (1964–1965) was a sporty Comet trim — a two-door hardtop and convertible with bucket seats, console, and available V8 power including the 289 and 427 (in the very rare A-FX drag cars). Caliente cars share their compact body with the Comet and the underlying Falcon platform, making them one of the more interesting early-Mercury performance cars.
