2001 Ford Escort 2 Dr ZX2 Coupe Review
ProsGreat on gas, simple to operate [no electronic do-dads], replacement parts are low priced. ConsNot really much.

2001 Ford Zx2 — *The performance is, well it's an Escort. However, a low 7 second 0-60 is still decent in today's sub $20k coupe market. I really enjoy the 40mpg I average with it every time I drive; sometimes higher, rarely lower than 35mpg. *With the car being the lowest priced MSRP car from Ford when new, and all the ZX2s were built in Mexico so it's not surprising that after 127k miles, it has a few rattles. A few items have needed replacing [tie rod ends, 1 ball joint, 1 outer wheel bearing] but nothing out of the ordinary of normal ZX2 issues. *Everyone's got an opinion, and I still like the looks of the car nearly 8 years after I bought it. *Once the warranty ran out [72m/75k mile], obviously the cost went up. However, the highest service cost so far has only been just over $500. I've hit a high of 45.98mpg with the car so far, though I have numerous occasions where the car gets over 40mpg. *I enjoy driving the car everyday, in any weather. I would drive the car anywhere.

My Zx2 — The scort has a very ridged chassis, that provides an amazing platform for upgrading. It shares parts with many other vehicles, there for part interchangeability is good. There are a good number of performance parts out there, but not so many that you cant tell quality from crap. It is sleek in appearance to a point that its deceptive and not everybody realizes that its an escort. The best part of all is that there cheap. If you total it you can get another for nothing. Over all it's great car to drive.... Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

Its A Very Nice Car — its a pretty good car, but I'm not done with it yet. its performance is excellent, it accelerates and breaks excellently, it handles fairly well, and its fun to drive. its appearance is alright, the only problem i have with it is the back. the layout of the taillights and the roundness of the car looks a little weird but I'm planning on changing that. when the window is rolling down it creates a squeak that I'm looking into. it gets about 36 mpg average, and the car is very fun to drive. | ||

I Love It! — I love my car except that the person who had it before did some stupid stuff to it. It's fun to work on, not too difficult, and it is super fun to drive and drift around corners. even though it's an FF it is awesome for drifting on snow! Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

ProsNice colour, kept its look maintained. The CD changer was in the trunk- that was cool! ConsWould have liked more leg room (tall people), Not a whole lot of room for storing things in, If sitting in the backseat it would cramp your style.

Our Devil's Road Car — We had a Teal Green colour ZX2. On our honeymoon we went down the wrong street and for an hour of pot holes we found out the hard way to get to the Ferry in New Brunswick hitting up Devil's Road. We survived where other cars would have never made it. "Survival of the fittest" (This one made it) |
