Well boys and girls, I am the new proud owner of the latest SVT sold on eBay. I go out to Indy on Friday and drive back. Nice 700 mile cruise to get the feel of her. Then the tune up, detailing and water pump. Mods will wait till I replenish the checking account. LOL..

Don't get me wrong, I love my CSVT, but I found a car on Ebay Motors that made me wish I hadn't bought my Contour last September, but had waited until now to buy: http://makeashorterlink.com/?P27A15261 WAAAHHHHH!!!! --T.J.

I still have my Valentine One from my last car. I'm not gonna push it too much, but will be traveling late and plan to accelerate a little heavy and do some passing to test throttle response and listen for noise. I also want to test for drift on the highway. Then my mechanic gets it for two days to go over it with a fine toothed comb and tune it up.
Whats the current recommendation on plug, wires and an air filter?

Good luck and congrats! I bought mine 1000 miles from home. It was a great drive! I couldn't sleep knowing my new car was outside waiting to haul butt! Do you know the build number?
