99SE
CEG'er
If I found a bone stock csvt with around 50k miles on it what kind of price range would it be in? I'd like to get one and get rid of the se. The svt looks so much better.

Preferably a 2000 model but 1999 would probably do.
I might consider a se with svt bumpers and a 3l engine though.
My wife has no interest in driving a stick so getting a se would be better for her but if I got a svt then that means that she would stay out of it.
What are you guys paying for insurance for the svt?
$64/month full coverage....27 years old no tickets/accidents
ATX Contiques = teh suck.
Yeah it does but I'm not all about going fast. I just like to drive a sweet looking car and I've fallen in love with the contour. I'd be sad when mine dies. Hopefully if I don't get a svt that my se would last for a long time.
I like the power from the take off not really the top end. I'm not really excited about going 100mph.
These cars suck at the bottom end (traction etc)....they don't really like to get up and go until you hit third in them...that is when they like to stretch their legs.

I disagree, 1st and 2nd were my favorite gears when I was N/A 2.5L, even with the stock diff.
No.
Yes.
Third gear is where the acceleration starts to drop off for me due to the taller gearing. Dunno why yours doesn't "get up and go" in 1st or 2nd, I've unintentionally chirped the tires on the 1-2 shift several times.
1st and 2nd are fine for me and I have had them "chirp" into second as well (even did that on the se), but once you hit third is when you start to pull from other cars....and you can tell there is a LOT more left in the engine.
Ehh... not really. My contour was fast in 2nd and 3rd, 4th was slow (5th is slower) And 1st was short.
