Guys! I totally figured out the whole problem. (Time for me to get bashed!!!) Sell the Contours and the mods and the turbos (Twin or otherwise) and buy a mid 80's Porsche C4 for 15,000 or so. It way outperforms 95% of the 'tours and is way cooler looking!
So now... have at it. I won't check my e-mail for a week or so.
