Found this on some website stating that it is the concept car for the frod contour. I dont know if it has been posted yet, just thought it was interesting. They have it dated at 1991.

I know that car... I've seen it in my calendar... Never heard of it being the contour concept...

This is the Contour concept according to the sources I've seen. iirc, it came out before the Mondeo was released:




1995 V6 SE MTX
1998.5 CSVT
1963 Riley Elf/Saab 2.0L Turbo swap

You don't seem to be aware that Saleen did make a one-off Contour SVT?? It looks pretty much like those drawings... azz in my opinion, totally s(rewed up the car's smooth lines.

that first picture (black car) bears a strong resemblance to the last SHO taurus.

I like the car 95seped posted. Introduces the 'oval theme' yet maintains the look of a regular car. In fact, I just realized that's another reason I like my Contour!

It kinda looks like a four-door ZX2, or something that Mazda would build.

Yeah I have seen the saleen car and Am in the buy for the front kit. But it is cool to see the drawings before the make of the car. Imagine if all drawings that car companies made for a car design were actually followed to a "T" what a crazy worild it would be. That yellow car concept up top looks like it should be a mazda mp3 type car or something lol. I like it though ..pretty cool. I would make the rear bumper lower though ..and might ditch the whale tail ..looks allright on that design though.

It is a concept Taurus.

This has come up before and it was found the labeling is incorrect.

The yellow one "Profile" is the concept CDW-27 car.
