@Doobie1975 I Saw one the other week. I Really Liked these but there starting to become rare because of Age. I knew someone with a 84 Mercury lynx wagon in baby blue. I Wanted it
same here....i also notcied they used the 1985 honda accord hatchback...not the sedan!! since the sedan competed with other cars not the escort.....anyways i would also love to have all of those imports....i wouldnt mind an 84 escort either...
@bigphat200 I had an '84. I agree with what you said about their reliability. I mean, I used mine to go back and forth to work for roughly two months, when it was a little over two decades old. How's that for showing the younguns how it's done? I also took that car where many pickup trucks feared going, and did what they feared doing. However, my little Mercury met it's match in a 2000's model VW Beetle. That damn Bug squashed me!

Ironically, the 2.0 liter diesel engine is Mazda-sourced.

I had a 83' Lunx and it was one of the most reliable cars i have ever owned. My second car was an Isuzu which was nicer.
