Capri’s hood had a more prominently
raised centersection, with faux vents just
forward of the hoodscoop.
Twin tailpipes exiting on the driver’s side
gave the appearance of dual exhaust,
though all turbocharged cars have single
exhaust since the turbo has a single outlet.
Dual orange stripes separated the Charcoal
body from the silver lower. Visual impact
was strong.
All Capri front fenders and rear quarters had the widebody bulge.
Decklid and front fenders got the RS Turbo badge. Taillights got
the five-blade treatment, another Capri exclusive.
Sunroof and T-tops were available options, but all Capris
were three-doors (McLaren conversions excepted).
Capri used a convex rear window, giving it its own profile, and
probably slightly better wind-tunnel performance compared to
its Mustang cousins.
