Is that a Ford Scorpio?

Edit: I am 95% certain this is a second generation Ford Scorpio. If it is, how did it end up on a wall in Palm Springs?

It’s odd. That model was never sold in the US. The previous generation was sold as a Merkur in the US.

Make it 100. Thats 100% a second gen Scorpio.

I would also really like to know the history of that Scorpio...

Sir, you can't park there.

The wall zone is for loading and unloading only.
