Good call, high insurance and high resale values typically indicate a crappy car with low demand…

The discontinued Ford Escort however, can be both insured and purchased on a budget, showing just how highly sought after that piece of automotive history really is. I don’t even have to get into the performance aspect, I think we all know about ZX2 street dominance.

I’d feel like such a wanker rolling up to a nice restaurant in my Porsche 928 while you roll up in style in your low resale value Escort.

I don’t know what I was thinking. Thanks for setting me straight.
