I found some videos of me having some silly fun with my Contour, and I realized I missed my 2.0L I4 Contour... I wish I never sold it, I wonder if any quiet CEG'ers own it now... Or if it was abused like ContourFreak's car
I made some videos of me driving around, and at one video, flooring it at a stop light until 55 mph, it's noticably slow, but I miss it though... Any other trolls miss their Tour?
I really shouldn't have sold it... I shoulda fixed the damn trans pan gasket and oil pan gasket... I coulda kept it along side my Taurus. but, I was eager to get a newer car...
Don't get me wrong, I love my Taurus SE, but just somethin about the Contour I loved, maybe the no need for payments was one...
Edit, if anyone has Carfax... can someone tell me the if This VIN: 3FALP653XSM105035 is still in operation? (I imagine it'd say if Salvaged or not...)

I miss mine a lot too. Far too many memories with that car, I had it through the better halves of high school and college (junior/senior years and soph/junior years respectively). Though my new car hasn't made me miss it nearly as much as I thought I would have. Too many electronic features in this one, plus no worrying of breakage, has spoiled me!  I do still intend to purchase an SVT before SZ'07 now that I have a real job.

Komet - can you do the same for me?

I sold it in November to an auto dealer for $1500, and I assume it went to auction shortly thereafter.

Cool thanks! I really hope it treats the new owner well (and vice versa!). Very glad they got a service contract too - might be necessary given amount of times I had to repair it. I had sold it with 77,777 miles.

No ... trip gets reset every time I fuel up, so it never went past ~330 miles when I was in the car. Would have been good though had I realized I was going to sell the car at that exact mileage.
