1998 Ford Escort ZX2/2003 Ford ZX2

This is an lora I created for the Ford Escort ZX2 and the 2003 Ford ZX2.

At the Ford end of things, this replaced the Ford Probe (https://civitai.com/models/1132820/1992-ford-probe) in 1997 for the 1998 model year in North America, due to the planned third generation Ford Probe eventually being sold with Mercury badges as the Mercury Cougar (https://civitai.com/models/1047383?modelVersionId=1640078) over in America and Canada, meaning that the Probe's successor in European and Australian markets would only be sold with Ford badges there (https://civitai.com/models/1047383?modelVersionId=1302871), thus making the Ford Probe have two Ford badged replacements.

In 2000, sales of it and the rest of the Escort range were terminated for both Canada and Mexico, with the Ford Fiesta Ikon replacing the Escort sedan in Mexico, while the Escort ZX2's slot as coupe would be filled by the already-available Mustang.

In 2001, due to the Escort sedan being demoted to fleet sales, the Escort moniker would be from the Escort ZX2, thus making it become simply ZX2. In 2002 for the 2003 model year, it underwent a facelift before production of the ZX2 ended in 2003.

The 2003 Ford ZX2 was trained with 30 images on weights.gg (http://weights.gg) back in 16 January, while the Ford Escort ZX2 was trained with 30 images using the same site today (10 June).
