Ford EXP (82?), a bad mod of the mediocre Escort of the day. Odd/wierd styling, but Ford (Iacocca?) said they'd sell a million of them.

Ford Escort EXP, circa 1983 (is that when blue ovals reappeared in grilles? ).
 
This'd be a base model (as the fancy version had phone-dial alloys & TRX tires).

Ah yes, what my cousin used to call a Ford POS. I believe that I needn't explain further.

Ford EXP is correct, it's a 1982.

Boy, we're gonna have fun with this one! First, I will dive in with the gold 1967sh Chevy 4 door Malibu.....
 
Directly behind it, there is a 4 door Citroen, I would assume late 1960s, not sure of the model number.

What a lineup...barely a German car among them. I've never seen the film, but I am pretty sure those are Dutch plates.
 
Along with the Chevy Malibu ca. 1968-69 (which doesn't look too out of place, shockingly), there's a cool Citroen DS/ID wagon in front of it, and a sedan behind it. I'm guessing the BMW alongside the Chevy is a 1600 (that or a 2002), behind it a German Ford, then a VW, then what looks like a VW 411. Parked right near the BMW is a Mini or one of its derivatives.
 
The parked cars are a menagerie - mainly French. I see a couple Citroen Dyanes, a couple Renault 4s, a Peugeot 404, I think I see a 2CV way back there along with a Citroen Ami wagon, a few VWs, I think I see a few Opels, and others I am to lazy or not able to identify.

Pretty good job you guys but nobody figured out that the BMW is most likely a 2002, in fact it looks just like the '69 a buddy of mine had. The blackout grille is the tip off that it isn't a 1602.
 
I don't recognize the blue wagon behind the Bimmer, anyone know?

I'm pretty sure it's a German Ford, something like a Taunus 15M
