antp ◊ 2005-12-23 00:17	Escort maybe, but 1999 for sure no: the movie is from 1997
DIEHARD ◊ 2005-12-23 20:04	I don't think this is an escort, it is too big for an escort!
Hiergehts ◊ 2005-12-24 03:31	This is a later US version Ford Escort of the updated bodystyle sold from 1997-2000. It looks bigger than it is from the type of lens used in the pic. -- Last edit: 2005-12-24 03:32:11

This would also fit as I saw a now removed 1997 ad for the car on YouTube that called it "new" and mentioned a special deal ending April 28, 1997. On the English wiki, only the article about the ZX2 states the spring 1997 release, but they may have been released simultaneously. -- Last edit: 2015-07-21 17:35:36

Gamer ◊ 2015-07-21 17:39	Now you really can't blame me...Stupid German Wikipedia gave me false information! I'll change that now... Revised by me, the article now reads: Im Frühjahr 1996 stellte Ford zum Modelljahr 1997 den Escort der dritten Generation vor, der wiederum auf einer Mazda-Plattform aufbaute und den es, anders als die Vorgänger, als viertürige Stufenhecklimousine und als fünftürigen Kombi in den Ausstattungslinien Basis und LX gab. EDIT: They reverted it and accused me of vandalizing the article for grime music, which I hadn't even heard of before I got that message. Ignorant fools... Undank ist der Welt Lohn... -- Last edit: 2015-07-30 14:50:42
