sounds ignernt to me. but ashes to ashes...... whateva whateva. We should just race, I think my car is ugliest from the back. Dodge did that so it would worsen the feeling of loosing to a neon.

pimp factor=penis extension
I owned one an loved it, but it's just a contour, there is no pimp factor in a contour. It's a discontinued ford with dwindling aftermarkeret(that was never booming) and fanbase. Spring Zing 03? Now if you drove a ferrari, you'd have pimp factor.

Just to add...I have said in earlier posts. I think the turbo neon is a major accomplishment for DC. Biggest bang for buck, toppling poney cars for the first time in years. Its ability was showcased in the One-Lap of America where it did very well against very expensive iron. It is fast & cheap and thats a good thing.
It would kill an CSVT in a race, no doubt. But the CSVT has nice things going for it as well, great handling, smooth high reving engine with excellent throttle response, engine sounds are excellent, and it looks very nice. Just apples and oranges.

how can you even feel right about comparing a torboed motor that was built last year, to a n/a motor that was built almost 10 years ago. Technology has moved in leaps and bounds, and they are designing better and better stuff everyday. If you want everybody to know you have a neon, go out and drive around in it instead of coming to the CONTOUR enthusiast group to brag about it. You are nothing but somebody who bought a car. You had nothing to do with designing the srt-4, so why are you so proud. The svt, (or tours in general) were an amazing car for there time. If you didn't buy one brand new, you never can or will. Anybody can buy a srt-4 any time they want too, it doesn't make them anything special. If you took an svt, and added 10# of boost, it would absolutely eat a srt-4, and that would give you bragging rights.

Your new car is a small bubble with a turbo charger. the Focus Cosworth that is coming will beat it senseless. iF you think the Neon has a 'pimp factor' than i am sorry.
A contour SVT may not have a 'omg im a trashy whore you have a benchpark wing i love you' pimp factor , but it has a class factor , and a uniqueness.
