1998 Nissan Pero for anyone who didn't see it:

 

This is muuuuch better. Dunno why companies can't keep the original car name in all regions. The moment I saw those headlamps, I went "Silvia S14" in my head.

Beats me.

 

 

 

I wouldn't get it. I've seen these kinda cars get trashed all the time, and eventually into a better place. I would try to find a good Honda Civic for somewhere around that price.

The american escort wasn't an horrible car, it was quite reliable. I can't say the same about the euro escort (we had both in my country) they are really depressing.

Yes, the Ford Escort in EU used to be a RWD machine that was used in rally racing, but mk3 onwards was reduced to a FWD shopping cart. I despise them, it's like a baby mondeo with no character or style. They were phased out in favour of the Ford Focus here in Europe.

U sure that's a Focus? The Focus seemed more smooth. This one was too boxy. No way this is a focus.

That is an original escort, the focus was the replacement of the euro escort. I believe the focus came out in 98'.
