It has been fun to be on this forum, but because I don't have the money to buy an celica I bought this car
   It's an Ford Escort RS2000 (150Hp and 190Nm) The prices of an 6th Gen are so high, I couldnt even mod it (which I thought earlier/ but I am short on cash) so this is my new ride! I hope you like it! I do! Greets and good luck to you in the future! |

hehe thnx! Im gonna let it paint escort rs cosworth blue
Coomer Yellow doesnt look on this car in my opinion. It has a Mongoose exhaust pipe and a K&N 2 air filtre. The car has a really cool engine sound. Very broooaarr and not the ricy wreem wreeeem sound:) If you know what I mean. Maybe chiptune the engine so I have 180hp and 220Nm  Lat8hhh Vincent aka Nitto |

lol a 5th gen costs the same as this car. And I think the 5th gen really blows
Here In my country the celica 6th gen is as expensive as an BMW 318. (just to give you an idea)

Its not an turbocharged engine its a 2 litre 16V
I heard that people in The Netherlands equipped their Rs2000 with the the 2.3 16V motor and with the original rs2000 2 litre valves and camshafts. You get a lot more torque and hp So next is this or an paintjob. I am gonna wait with the Superchip (Chiptuning brand) which adds 10hp and 20Nm on the stock rs2000 engine  So with the 2.3 engine 200hp is possible heheIm gonna smoke some 6th gens j/k

Ford escorts will always have easily accessed parts, bodykits and aftermarket
extras, for an owner on a budget it's a good place to start, good luck with the car, Jon
