I just saw a high-mileage one on Kijiji, and to be honest know nothing about the car. A look at wilkipedia says it looks like a premium-gas burning Zetec making 10% over stock. Lots of upgrades, such as Eibach springs, Tokico struts, polyurethane bushings, Ford Racing PCM, Roush and Iceman intake, rear disc brakes, Centerforce clutch, short-throw B&M shifter, Borla muffler and pipe, etc. Anyone know much about them??

The important thing: how stock is it?

If it's missing all the cool bits, it's just a regular ZX2. They're a nice handling car, and will go fairly well, but the chassis itself goes back to the original Mazda Protege (1990), so it's not the stiffest out there. A nicely tuned Focus ZX3 with a few go-fast bits will be quicker, ride better, and handle better.
