Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General General Should I get a Contour?

I own a 90 Stang that runs high 12s and is my fun car. I am looking to buy a sporty, reliable 4 door car preferably with a 5spd. I would prefer a domestic car and the Contour 24v and SVT caught my eye. I am looking for a car that will run in the 15s in the quarter, get reasonable gas milage, be reliable, and cost under $10k used. I was also considering a V6 Alero (automatic), a Maxima (foreign), or a supercharged 3800 GM car like the GTP(pricey, automatic.) What do you guys think about a 24v Contour or a v8 sho? Tom
