That would be a car with.. 1 door? I dont think Ford ever built a 1 door coupe or hatchback :P
They starting calling the Escort by "ZX2", then totally ditched the Escort title and called the coupe the ZX2. I guess they figured it would be clever to carry that on with the Focus ZX3 (it might also imply to people that the ZX3 is 1 better than the ZX2). Also remember that this is totally a North American naming system, the European models dont have any Z-badges at all.
