Re: Ford Cortina

Why is it that some of Ford's best cars weren't available in the USA? I've read in many places that the Cortina was a damn good car. The euro spec Ford escorts were supposedly really good as well, whereas most of the US spec escorts sucked. Then there was the sapphire, most notably the Cosworth model, and we couldn't have any of those here? Why the hell not?
