"Four versions of the Contour are being offered for 1998. The entry-level GL and mid-level LX use the "Zetec" engine. The SE is powered by the "Duratec" 2.5-liter V6, and was the sports-luxury sedan of the line until the mid-year introduction of the limited- production SVT. The SVT has a tuned version of the Duratec engine with more power and a sport-tuned suspension, and slightly different trim. "

"I did have a chance to drive an SVT at Sears Point International Raceway earlier in the year, and found it to be a quick and wonderfully-handling, world-class small sports sedan."
