That is why the 2002 Altima is bigger. Ford didn't want a bigger Contour to take away Tauri sales and look at them now.
The old sporty SE was essentially replaced by the SVT, and Ford used SE for all it's cars by 1998, so that is why it was "mainstreamed".
Nassar killed the car, now Nick Scheele and Billy Ford wish they didn't!
My thoughts exactly Tom.
