When Ford took an Escort and tried to make it look like a Mustang. I liked the styling. Not many cars looked good during the malaise era but this one had character despite its econobox roots.

Ah yes! forgot the names
It never came with a blower from the factory, that one you posted seems ridiculously overpriced | I got the quote from car and driver looks like it was the prototype. And yea that one is expensive but it's rare so... kinda worth?

i have an F150 with that same base 4.6L V8, it's actually a far supperior motor to the aluminum 5.4L block.
These early 2000's motors had a problem with the spark plugs loosening themselves and shooting out the head, due to the retarded cap over plug system. With the aluminum blocks though you were fucked if it happened. With the 4.6L i've actually blown 2 plugs out of my motor while driving and my mechanic was able to heli coil them back in, where as the 5.4L i think you actually had to pull the head and re-sleave the spark plug cylinder

My neighbour and his sons worked at the local Ford dealership and the oldest son had an Escort GT in all black.

I really like those cars, they're not all AWD either... some FWD ones in manual available.

It looked like an unclean butt.
Also, the price changes on a weekly basis. I bet the price changed from when you last posted it

The ‘88 GT is such a wicked looking car. My buddy just bought a ‘85 Fiero. 50,000km. The only dirt on it is his dirty ass moustache.

I was tempted by those M45 years ago. Only sold for 03/04 in North America. You could get the Cedric/Gloria versions in Japan etc. They were actually faster than the Q45 because they were lighter.
I sold my 02 Q45 for about $5k around 7 years ago. Had about 165kms. Rode like a couch with plenty of torque. Power rear sunshade and manual rear window shades.

the M45 with the OEM kit was perfect 
With the OEM grill 
Perfect that OEM+ look with the 370z wheels
