Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General General why contours are no longer made

"If VW or SAAB had come out with these, they'd still be making 'em. Ford didn't even make much of an effort to market these. Strike three."

VW still does, it's called a Jetta and they sell em like java in yuppievilles. The back seat is tiny, but it's got the "image".

Also, Chevy sold the CORSICA for 95-96, and that is when Ford had the advantage. The Malibu was actaully aimed at the Taurus and the (Geo) Prizm at the Contour.

Anyway, the whole point of CEG is that we understand and like the car even though the general public doesn't get it.
