Get in-depth info on the 2002 Ford Escort including prices, specs, reviews, options, safety and reliability ratings.
The original North American Ford Escort was based on its European cousin and was sold from the 1981 through 1990 model years. After that, the mighty Ford Empire turned to its Japanese ally, Mazda, for the Escort's platform and that's where it remained until the final ZX2 Escort coupes were sold here as 2003 models. I've neglected those early Mazda-based Escorts in this series up until now, so here's one found in a Colorado car graveyard recently.
A 1993 non-wagon Escort buyer getting the LX-E or GT models got a 1.8-liter DOHC Mazda four-cylinder rated at 127 horsepower, while all the other American Escorts that year came with this 1.9-liter Ford CVH and its 88 horses. This car was a platform sibling to the Mazda 323 aka Protegé, which made it a close cousin to the 1991-1994 Mercury Capri. Its Mercury-badged twin was the Tracer.
This deeply offensive bumper sticker was the creation of the late Frank T. Kostecki, an Ohio fur trapper and businessman who owned Kosky's Trading Post in Sullivan and offered a full line of stickers promoting the consumption of roadkill possum.
