!.!.!.! Man, I hate The Sopranos just for this! How on Earth could they trash a beautiful 1990 Ford Tempo GL sedan just for a laugh! I mean, come on, why don't they just trash a Lexus SC or a BMW M5 for God's sake! -- Last edit: 2006-04-19 07:05:28 |

C'mon, it's hitting a Metro. I think I have books that weight more than a Metro. The Tempo should be more or less alright. |

Funny to see "beautiful" and "Ford Tempo" together |

This car was used by Salvatore "Big Pussy" Bompensiero (Vincent Pastore) in episode 2.12 "The Knight in White Satin Armor". He borrowed it from his son to avoid being spotted as he followed Christopher Moltisanti. Pussy was trying to gain favour with the FBI for doing a "stake-out" and getting information, but it all went wrong when he couldn't keep up with Christopher's sporty Mercedes and ended up running over a cyclist and crashing into a Geo Metro. From episode 3.13 "Army of One", Vito Spatafore makes a getaway in this after whacking Jackie Aprile Jr: -- Last edit: 2012-03-15 23:00:41 |

That is at least a 1992 model because of the grille. |

And Tempo's rock! There is like nothing better! Good looks, good design, comfortable, sporty (GLS, LTS and XR5) and they are capable. |

That is not a 1990 model. That is a 1992 model. These are 1990 models: eBay Link 1 eBay Link 2 And, of course, TempoTopaz.com has a year by year analysis: 1990 Tempo 1992 Tempo As you can tell by the pictures, the grille in the original screenshot matches the 1992 car. |

It's a 92 or newer. The grill looks chrome but its not. Just shiney and relecting the Geo Metro. |
