1998 Ford Escort ZX2 review from North America
"I think buying this car was a great decision and I don't regret it one bit"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I've had absolutely no problems with this car so far. I've taken it on road trips and never once worried that there might be a problem.
General comments?
I think if driven like it's supposed to be and not like a race car, this car gets great mileage and won't let you down.
I love my little car and brag about it to everyone, even my boyfriend loves to drive it. It's very easy to manuever and a lot of fun to drive on the highway.
I live in Colorado and this puppy can pull the passes with the best of them.
