I was with my girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When i got my first csvt i pulled upto a buddys place(idiot honda lover,lol) He says,is that turbo charged? I said compared to a honda it is,lmfao,na its just an air intake.But all my honda buddys are always in awe when they are lucky enough to go for a ride.Plush leather,sleek sexy style,great handling.The complete package for a 4-door i think.Thats why were here i suppose.
 
The guy at the tire place that drove the car back around to me called it a Honda even though he had been looking at a Ford steering wheel and Ford/SVT gauges.
 
At one of the bigger Ford dealerships in the area, I got "that's one modified Taurus" from one of the sales persons.

I do believe I would have turned around, walked out and never returned to that dealership...


So far, mine hasn't been mistaken for anything.
 
A Georgia State Trooper pulled me over on the interstate in the dark hours and asked me what kind of car it was. I said that it was a Ford and he asked what kind of Ford it was. I told him it was a Contour and it didn't seem to register with him.

He went on to say, "Oooh-eey, I tell ya, you was movin' purdy gud." "I got ya on radar doin' 85." "Do you know what the speed limit is back there... blah, blah, blah."

I really wanted to scream at him, "You didn't get me on radar YOU FRIGGIN' LIAR becuase my Valentine One NEVER WENT OFF and I was doing at least 115 when I saw you pop on your headlights and pull out behind me back there." "Can't you see that it's an SVT YOU FRIGGIN' IDIOT?"

Needless to say, I bit my tounge and just mailed a check.

I seriously don't understand the Escort thing. The CSVT doesn't look anything like one. The Taurus, I can understand from the side and back.

I can see Escort thing, especially like the 97-02, the tail lights (at least the corners where they wrap) look very similar.

slow down there street racer were ya going in such a hurry:shrug:
 
I got clocked at 127...

On the ticket he wrote ford escort...

in court the judge proceeds to ask me what I've done to the car. she then tells me she has an escort and how did I get it to go that fast...

I said it's impossible to get an escort that fast.

The officer never arrived and she dropped the charges...
