Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications General Mods pics of se converted to svt

Insurance on my `96 GL is $1200 a year. Granted I am also insured 500/300/500.

As long as I keep the car insured, my truck is $396/year. Its insured with the same coverage.

warmonger, what insurance company are you with? I'm with Allstate, and the agent specifically asked what model Contour (SVT), then said "hey, it's listed as a sports car."

My fantasy is to make my SVT look like a Tempo or some other rusted out junk-heap: so when I do the freeway curves at 90mph an' the ricers freak tryin' to keep up......
(I took all the badges OFF my SVT)
If you want the SVT style: get some sticky tires for that ride too!!!! not just the plastic...

as to what warmonger says...i see some of us here are a little cranky if someone wants to convert a se to an svt(looks wise)...thats exaclty what i did and yea you can call me a wanna be, but im not saying i have an svt, i know i have a sport on the inside, but on the outside its all svt, and if someone asks me my vin # , i would just simply say its a sport w/ svt clothes, im sure they would love the idea that someone went to so much trouble to convert to an svt kit. its pathetic how you say its just a wannabe. you should be happy someone wants to upgrade to an svt..and i know my sport is great, but now its 100000 times better cause it has the kit! Wannabe>>>righttttttttt<<<<<

I think I am the one calling you the wannabe...

That was funny....good one. 9.5/10

chris99tour,
i'm interested in what your car looks like. post pics soon! also where and about how much did you drop for the svt kit.

as far as the a$$holes berating those wanting to get the svt body kit...

its an aesthetic mod! to some it makes the car look better. if you don't like it who cares, its not your car. so what if someone wants they're car to look a certain way.

the only point i see is that if someone says their car is an svt and its not. thats lame.

next thing you know there'll be somebody complaining about "your trying to make your gl look like an se by putting se side skirts on". stop b!tching!

its your car so do as you please with it. sh!t if you want to put svt badges all over your non-svt tour or stique more power to you! but understand you will have lamed out your car and yourself.

btw beyondloadedse your car looks great!

So, since I have a 2000 SE, without side skirts (decontented by Ford), I'm masquerading as a GL?

you wannabe gl you're making us SE owners look bad

...hope you feel the sarcasm

Yeah, if I can just get those plastic wheel covers to fit over the aluminum wheels, I'll be almost there...hmmm, there are a lot of G-car Contours around my office in DC....
