When was the last time you saw one of these? And in such clean condition?
I got a strange look from someone across the street while looking at this one. Apparently, some people don’t see what’s so interesting about a mid-90s Korean econobox in the year 2019...

My friend had one of these, though it was badged as a Mitsubishi Precis. His was about a 92 or so and it was just god-awful bad. It was probably even a step down from what he had before; a 1986(?) Ford Ranger diesel (aka, the slowest vehicle ever).

My mom has one, but in white. The trans and most suspension bits went bad by 15,000 miles.

Looks like Donald Trump Jr. in a few years jerking off locked up in a mental asylum?...sounds about right.

This is not only improbable , it should be impossible.
How is this possible? Who hermetically seals an Excel? Did a museum lose funding?
So many curiosities. Trailer it to “ Ripley’s Believe it or Not” in Vegas if they still exist. They’ll put it in the lobby to draw people inside.

Maybe it’s LS-swapped.

An old school friend’s mom had a Precis, I called it the Precis Zero (after the kamikaze plane). Fun to look back on it and see how fast it decayed (I recall it being less than perfectly reliable too) - it seemed pretty done by the time it was 5-6 years old, when it was replaced. They have to be virtually extinct now.
It replaced a maybe 86 Escort wagon, and I think was replaced by another Escort.

It’s an oddity! The last ones I saw were back in 2006. A neighbor had 2 identical 3 doors in light metallic blue. He traded them both in on identical 2006 Accents, maroon 4 doors.

I believe it’s been under the same ownership for a while. It has an older style PA plate, and the plate frame is for a dealer that doesn’t exist anymore.

When I was in high school and worked at Taco Bell, one of the managers bought one of this generation Excel brand new. She let me drive it once, and boy was that thing terrible. The interior feel so brittle and flimsy, the engine sounded awful, and it had the worst gearbox I’ve ever used.
Other than that, it was ok.

It’s impressive how far they have come.
