Perhaps I spoke up too quickly about the thing being decontented. I'll clarify what I know for sure. The last several new Mystiques I have seen in the air were not equipped. It seems that I noticed the same thing about Contours, but I have spent more time recently around a Lincoln Mercury dealership than a Ford dealership. They were gone from the Mystique for at least the last year of production. Could it be that they were retained on the SVT only?
