At the Lehi Transwest. Its been hammered on the right front and scraped hard (like it slid against something) on the left side. Only 87K on the clock though. Its black on midnight blue, had the front plate mounted in the lower grille.

Perhaps Scot could buy it and transfer all the SVT goodness to a plain jane and have an inexpensive SVT?

I'd have to try to find out how much my boss paid for it and if he was willing to sell it.

I can see your point. The Volvo is ten times the car that the Contour ever was. Its all the little details that I love (and the ability to haul lots of [censored].

I think that there are only a few things that the Cougar has going for it over the wagon. I have never owned a coupe, its an MTX and it will actually be able to handle. The Volvo handles the twisties like a greased pig.

Good luck getting one that isn't in cubed form from a salvage yard for $4K

well yeah - exactly. If I get a "real" car and not a project car I would get a loan. I am fully prepared to get a loan on a nice car, not so on a project car.

It is worth a car payment to have a vehicle with a warranty and reliability. Personally, the Shazboz and my company '05 E150 has made my toy SVT happen

An M45? I could see an '06, but before that the styling doesn't seem that great. What else are you considering? No S60R?

I don't know man...car pmts kinda suck...been there done that.

actually - I LOVE the older style M45 - much more so than the new one. I also like the price a lot better 25K>60K
