I saw one of these on the road; I don't know if it's only offered overseas, or in Mexico- but it had what looked like a Ford Focus front end, and a rounded rear end. It was a 3-door hatchback, considerably smaller than a Focus, with Oregon plates on it.

Has anyone else ever seen or heard of this car? I can't find it on Google, or anything...

 

 

a Google of Tuxpan shows it s city in Mexico. Maybe Tuxphan is a local variation of that spelling.


I think you have a Mexican Fiesta (which matches that description) with a dealer name tag on the back.

 

Could be. The reason I even saw the plate "Oregon" was because I was expecting to see a plate from Mexico, but it wasn't. Yeah, the car probably came from down there, or maybe Europe.

European's drive the heck out of those itty-bitty cars- I wouldn't want to leave my alley in one of them... It was small though, as small as, if not smaller than an Aspire.

 

Ah....it's soooo good to have you back. No more vacations for you.

 

Yeah, that was funny, but- I didn't want to give him the satisfaction of knowing it was funny!

 

Hersh, you lost a LOT of weight

 

This?

 

Go here. All kinds of Fords you'll rarely see here in the States.

Down Under Ford

 

Certainly looks like it, from the front- minus the air dam.

 

Maybe it was one of these?

Ford Ka

 

Man, Fords are VERY expensive other there to buy! An Explorer starts out at 51K???

 

Don't forget, it takes about 1.35 Austrailian dollars for 1 US dollar.

 

Think outside the box there Matt, think Aussie $$.

 

I think we have a winner...
The butt looks kinda high, but then again, that's a Ford trademark...

Does that badge say V6? I6, or something else? Doesn't look like Ka...
Amazing, if they stuffed a v6 in that little joker. That'd be one swift grocery getter.
