While the LeCar was ugly in it's street form I don't think most people would turn down having this one.....if you would you may not be a true gearhead/car guy...these things were turbocharged and wicked fast!

And the Merkur XR4ti is actually a pretty cool car in it's own right....the US market just never got the cool Cosworth version. You may have to like European cars to appreciate the appearance but the Turbocharged 2 liter cosworth can make some sick power. I'd take one of these in a heartbeat for a daily drive any day of the week.

What I REALLY want is one of these though....minus the roof scoop. I hate anything Escort for the most part but this Cosworth Escort is a bad SOB!!!

But to keep on topic of a hated ugly car....a GEO Storm would fit that bill![Wink](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)

Renault LeCar was known as Renault 5 in Europe and it was a very successful car. Over 5.5 million of them were sold in 24 years of production.

Scroll down to the part about Allen Iverson's mother.

(and yes, Rome's first car was an XR4Ti, and yes, he has the obligatory nightmare stories...)
