Damn...OK I'm biased but the way I look at it you have a mid 13's car easy, and it's a $3,200 platform. An artist's pallette if you will. I don't know what it's got for suspension but assuming it's stock $500-1200 would make it feel like a new car and decently capable to boot. Now you're into it for about $4,000-5,000. Don't know what wheels and tires or brakes but for another $1,000-2000 you can transform it in that aspect too. Now we're up to $5-7k tops for a car you could take open-tracking and hold your own on the street to boot. That leave a ****load of money for paint and interior and you're still into it for less money than you would be for a good Contour. But I may have to take a look at it
