20. 1970 Mercury Cougar Eliminator 428 CJ
The 1970 Mercury Cougar Eliminator 428 CJ pairs bold, distinctive styling with the potent Cobra Jet V8, making it one of Mercury’s most exciting muscle cars.
With only a few hundred produced, demand has grown sharply—values now reach $120,000-$180,000 for quality examples.
The Eliminator’s rarity and muscle credentials have propelled its status and value far above standard Cougars in the modern collector market.
