I think that the contour svt is pretty sweet. I used to have a contour sport with the v6. Nice car but was missing the 5 speed. the contour svt seems nice. I think they look good. there was a guy in minot with a boosted one. decently quick but not sure how much he spent on it total. I guess if it the car was a really good price I would rock one

There seems to be quite a few on Car Domain. I just checked a couple profiles and they seem like pretty nice cars with a fair amount of potential, performance wise and visually.

Cyril Figgis: Call girl!
Sterling Archer: No Cyril! When they're dead they're just hookers!

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
Torque is how far you take the wall with you -
They have decent acceleration out of the box but that's it. They are a plow in the handling dept and just like <u>nearly</u> every Ford car in that vintage, Coil springs break quite regularily. I don't have an opinion on the looks. It doesn't do alot for me but it doesnt repulse me either.

I bought and sold one this last summer. It wasn't a bad looking car, and it came well optioned. Acceleration was less then amazing, but not bad when compared with the civics and things like that in the same price point. Only thing I do know is once you start getting into neat parts, they cost you an arm and a leg. Just because there isn't as many people out there modifying them as there are the Hondas and such.

It doesnt look that bad...almost like a SHO taurus...Maybe if it was modded ok....I wouldnt want one though....Maybe some other ford....
