I already noticed the problem in the faq with the revs staying high (for emissions) and plan on fixing that. Overall I have to say the car's really impressive. Good response in the midrange but handling is a bit shakey (probably from the crappy tires I have). Anyway, hope to hear more from ppl. S. -- 98 Contour 2.5L Duratec auto. No mods yet

You didn't say what trim level you have but the SE Sport is the better handling of the 98+ non-SVT's trim levels. Keith W 98.5 SE Sport ATX Lt.
