Damn Ford for cutting the line! First off, what should I look for (i.e. problems, defects)? I haven't seen the car yet; It's 50 miles away and the dealer closes the same time I get off work so I am going on Saturday. The guy is being pretty honest; He did tell me that the dash has a little warp on the passenger side and some scuffs on the drivers side exterior. Was anything else de-contented between '99 and '00? I can't think of anything else they could have possibly gotten rid of! Any help would bew much appreciated! Thanks '99 SE Sport, Duratec ATX(I'm lazy) No mods, still love it! I have speed mud!

There are much better cars out now and coming. The Mazda 6, Ford 500, and Fusion. 2005 Nissan Sentra 1.8 SE, Code Red. '00 Tropic Green Ford Escort SE [Contour's little cousin]
