1999 Ford Escort ZX2 Hot Sport review from North America

"One of the best cars I have ever owned. A pleasure to drive and very economical"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Emergency brake cables started to stick on. Replaced by Ford at no cost to me. No problems with anything else.

General comments?

I have owned Ford's all my life, I absolutely love this car.

Just turn the key and it is raring to go.

Very quick take off, whether it be on the level or starting off on a hill, this car has power.

A friend of mine who has a 1988 Lincoln, drove it once and he said he was really impressed with it. He couldn't believe what quick acceleration it has for a 4 cylinder. Before he drove it, I told him how quick and fast it was, well he found out for himself.

I love everything about this little car.

It handles like a dream, no matter what type of road you are on. Superb traction on all road conditions.

I always use my Cruise on trips because you do not feel the speed you are going and could very easily get a speeding ticket. It's a speedy one and a pleasure to drive.

Excellent gas mileage. Averages 38 mpg. On a long trip it gets even more.

The Premium sound package is great.

I love the power moon roof.

Excellent air conditioning.

I love the looks of this ZX2. It sure turns a lot of heads when I drive by.

I will not put it in the salt, this car is truly a keeper.
