Here in America, the Ford Escort never had any sort of performance aspirations or following, with few people seeing it as much more than a boxy-but-affordable commuter car. In Europe, however, a small tuning shop named Cosworth made the Escort a name to be known and feared in rally racing circles.

Getting one of these turbocharged, all-wheel drive Escorts in the U.S. is a feat in and of itself. Getting one that’s legal to drive on the road? Now you’re just wishing.

Carscoops reports that for $54,990, you can pick up a 1995 Cossie Escort up for sale by Enthusiast Auto. Best of all, this Cossie comes with CARB certification, meaning it’s legal to drive even in emissions-hating California.

In it’s heyday, the all-wheel drive Cosworth Escort could eat up and spit out even the top-of-the-line Cobra R Mustang, and that’s because it was built with the world of rally racing in mind. Under the hood is a 305 horsepower, 2.0 liter gas engine mated to an all-wheel drive system that gives the Cossie unparalleled grip.

Painted in a sexy metallic electric blue paint job and wearing an unmistakable Cosworth spoiler, this rare bird has met all the regulatory requirements to be legally driven on U.S. roads. All this while maintaining that spirited engine, which counts just 14,000 miles on the odometer. This is one car that you’re almost guaranteed to never see at another car show, at least anywhere in America. The price of exclusivity? $54,990. And worth every penny.
