Contour - the official car of NASA

[HighPoweredKaufman]

I was down at Langley Air Force Base in Virginia last week. While I was there I got a tour of their NASA Research & Development base. While drving through one part I saw a fleet of 20+ white Contours!

I bet they are adding rocket propulsion to them. The Contour will no doubt be the first flying car.

Heh... they are probly GSA leased vehicles.

The Army unloaded a TON of Contours recently in Germany. Majority were GL Zetec ATX. Some site I saw a while ago had a bunch of old US gov't vehicles for sale.

Now the Army rides around in Chrysler Neons (obviously Euro spec).

BTW: Chrysler Neon:

I tried to get a pic as we drove by, but by the time I got my phone out of my pocket I missed them.

I wouldn't be surprised if they are the flex-fuel CNG version. The state of Wisconsin still operates a fleet of CNG Contours.

State of MA also has a few Contours floating around Boston, I think MTA (transit authority) vehicles. They sit on the road alongside the '92-95 Tauruses and the Tempos for the same department.
