Pros: Dependable and Reliable Cons: It will stop performing one day
Let me be perfectly honest with you folks out there. My 1993 Ford Escort wagon was not my first choice of automobiles when I was shopping for a new vehicle seven years ago. So why did I buy it? Well to make a long story short I was at a Ford...

Pros: nice little compact car Cons: little The Bottom Line: This little car suits my needs just fine!
I bought my Ford Escort as a new car in 1993. I have the LX station wagon model and it fits my needs quite well. This car does not have any fancy additions like power locks or windows but that is okay with me. It does have power steering and power...

Pros: Unreasonably reliable. Cons: Clueless steering, rapid front brake wear. The Bottom Line: This little SW (and the '94) is as vanilla as a car gets, but it carries a whole lot more than a typical econobox, and it flat refuses to die.
This is my second '93 Escort wagon. Back when I test-drove the first one, I noted an annoying lack of feel in the steering. The car also had no clue where "center" was. But I blew it off and bought it anyway (left over in late '93) because one of Mom's...

Pros: Dependable, fuel efficient Cons: noisy interior
I originally bought my 1993 Ford Escort in 1994 for $8200. It had 13k miles on it and had been a loaner car for a local dealership. The reason I bought this car was to replace a clapped out Hyundai (the biggest mistake I'd ever made in a car...

I love my ford escort wagon. It is a 1993, we bought it when it was only 1 year old and only had 22,000 miles on it. It now has 160,000 miles on it. This car has never left me stranded or even had any any major problems. It is a great little car,...

Pros: Low cost, high reliability Cons: Rough ride, tires
On a tight budget after first getting married, my wife and I bought a brand new 1993 Ford Escort Wagon for $9,300. It came with A/C, dual powered remote mirrors, manual transmission, roof rack and a cassette stereo.
Seven years and 93,000...

Pros: Economical, safe, easy to drive, stylish Cons: Eats headlights
I bought a 1993 Escort used in 1994 as my first car. Now, in 2000, with 123,000 miles on this car, I still have it, and it's still in great condition, both body and mechanics, and I love it. It's easy to drive and is very roomy for its size, but it...

Pros: Reliability, Build Quality, Driving Position, Controls/Displays, Utility Cons: Engine Noise, Wet Weather Handling, Acceleration
I have owned a 1984 Ford Escort GL Wagon and a 1993 LX wagon. I recently traded the '93 for a Toyota RAV4, but it gave us 120,000 miles of almost completely trouble free operation. The only repairs made to the car was a new cigarette lighter and the...

Pros: great family car, reliable, roomy Cons: not sure
I had a 1993 Escort Wagon. I owned this vehicle longer than any other vehicle before or since. I really liked this car.
Believe it or not I was one of those people who swore that I would never own a station wagon. Then my first child came...

Pros: Reliable, durable, inexpensive Cons: Not comfortable for travel over 5-6 hours at a time
I have a 1993 4-Door Ford Escort LX. It was my very first car and I bought it brand-spanking new! Here almost 7 years later and 135k miles gone by, I must say this car has been reliable, durable, and it is holding up the rigors of three kids!

Pros: Good mileage and features, a overall nice car Cons: A bit too small at times
I have my Ford Escort for 7 years now, and I love it. While it certainly can't be called the best car made by Ford, it still has a lot of useful features and such that makes me recommend it to people.
My car's version is a station wagon,...

This car keeps on going, and going, and going...I purchased my 93 Escort at the end of the 93 Model Year. My 87 Nissan was falling apart and I was desperate. I didn't have the money at the time, but the price, first-time buyer incentive, and factory...

Pros: Reliable, good for students, low price Cons: Not too flashy!
I bought my 93 Escort used from Budget Car Sales. It had been a rental so I got a good price on it. I have driven that car across the country and on several road trips, not to mention the daily driving.
I put the Escort on hiatus in March...

Pros: Reliable, Economic Cons: There are so many of them on the road, it's hard to be "original"
Ok, it's not new anymore. The brake pedal looks worn and the new car smell is long gone, but I still love my Ford Escort Wagon.
I bought my Ford wagon brand new in 1993. It's been afforded all the basic upkeep required, i.e. regular oil...
