Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Branches Eastern Canada Owner of a silver or black CSVT...

Never much cared for speed Ray....I'm more of an acceleration kinda guy - like dropping the clutch at 6000 Only kidding Chief!

My personal best on BlacknBlue is a hair over 135kph . Ask around....I won't be breaking any land speed records in this Zaino-mobile! Actually I think I've had it up to about 175kph.

I'm sure this car was broken in nice and hard by the previous owner so I'm not worried about my granny(Ottawa)-style driving.

Later crazies!

I'm usually a granny-style driver myself around town, but I do like to cut loose on the open road once in awhile. A few extra RPMs never hurt anybody.

No "nerves of steel" involved...unless you count the constant fear of a dangerous driving charge!
I used to race an F2000 car, so I'm accustomed to driving at speed.

I was quite pleased by a) how quickly the car got up to that speed and b)how smoothly it ran there for two or three minutes.

Yep - they cruise!
Back from Toronto, turned out the cruise to pass a few nancies.

Look down at the speedo, and WTF? Pushing up on 170 kmh!

The old Groantour is still as smooth as glass.

Enjoy your rides, gentlemen! (and ladies, if any out there!)

I am 27 and I like the contour too. Its a better then renting any vehicle out there, and it is a fast good looking sports sedan.
