IT IS IN YOUR BEST INTEREST TO MIND YOUR OWN BUISNESS! IM SORRY YOUR ARE NOT SMART ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT IT IS ALL A MATTER OF WHO YOU KNOW IN THE CAR BUISNESS, IF YOU WANT SOMETHING SPECIAL ON ANY NEW CAR ALL IT TAKES IS $$4 AND IN SOME CASES PEOPLE IN HIGH PLACES. AS IN THIS CARS CASE. THE ENGINE IS NOT SUPOSE TO LOOK LIKE THE SVT WITH THE BADGES AND THE BIG INTAKE BECAUSE IT WAS A SPECIAL ORDER. IT WAS ORDERED EXACTLY HOW IT SITS IT HAS THE SVT ENGINE AND THE SVT COMPUTER AND IT HAS THE LOUSY 200HP ALITTLE MORE THEN THE REGULAR 2.5 WITH 170 HP. GET A LIFE!!!!
-- 1999 SVT #220 --
In retrospect, it was all downhill from here. RIP, CEG.

GUYS DONT BE MAD YOU SPENT SO MUCH MONEY ON A 4DR GROCERY GETTER, SOMEDAY YOU WILL BE ABLE TO GET A REAL CAR, YOU MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO HANDLE THE EXTRA HP THOUGH.!!!!!!!!!"
Can someone really be so dumb?
Well of course, case in point. What a [censored] MORON. I just hope that the buyer will listen to our emails, yes, I did email him/her too. This seller is obviously living in NeverNever Land with Michael Jackson.

more insight from our favorite used car salesmen:
"THAT DOESNT MEAN ANYTHING, DO YOU REALLY THINK WITH THAT BRAIN OF YOURS??? NOT ALL ENGINES HAVE TO HAVE A
BADGE OR THE SAME INTAKE ETC.. ITS HOW YOU ORDER IT, WHEN THIS WAS ORDERED THE DEALER WOULD NOT PUT THE
BADGES ON THE ENGINE AND THE INTAKE WAS ALOT MORE MONEY THEN THE NORMAL INTAKE AND IT DIDNT DO ANYTHING
FOR HP, I DONT HAVE TO TEACH YOU CONTOUR SVT FREAKS ANYMORE LESSONS FOR FREE. EMAIL ME BACK WHEN YOU GET A
REAL SPORTS CAR. THIS CAR WAS OUR GROCERY GETTER BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT IT IS. EVEN IF IT HAD LEATHER SEATS
AND 16 INCH TIRES,AND SVT BADGES. AGAIN 170 HP FOR THE NORMAL CONTOUR 6CYL, AND 200 FOR THE EXSPENSIVE
SVT. THATS A HELL OF A LAUGH , 30 HP LEATHER SEATS AND 16 IN.RIMS AND 20 $ BADGES IS WORTH 5 TO 8 THOUSAND
MORE THEN MY SE. OR ANY SE THATS A REAL LAUGH"

I have a Zetec SE, and its a 98.5
This is probably correct. It may have happened before 2000. I'm certain that it did not happen before 1998.5 and even then it was probably very uncommon until 2000.
Ok for the 1 millionth time, the SE switched to take the place of the GL in 1998.5!!!! Look in the FAQ in main site. Yes, Zetec SE's were sold to rental companies starting in 1998.5.

Here is the reply he gave me... I HAVE EMAILED SO MANY IDIOTS THAT ARE TELLING ME THAT THE CAR IS NOT WHAT I SAY, IT IS A SVT ENGINE, IT HAS THE SVT COMPUTER IT DOES NOT HAVE THE SVT AIRCLEANER BOX OR THE INTAKE. THE ENGINE WAS INSTALLED AT FACTORY BECAUSE THE CAR WAS BOUGHT NEW BY THE SALES MANAGER OF THE FORD DEALERSHIP, THE CAR COULD NOYT HAVE THE BADGES ON IT BECAUSE IT IS NOT AN SVT CAR JUST SE CONTOUR BUT THE INTAKE AND AIR FILTER BOX WAS ALOT MORE EXPENSIVE THEN THE REGULAR ONES THAT COME ON THE NORMAL 170 HP 2.5L'S SO THIS IS WHY THE ENGINE LOOKS UNLIKE THE SVT, IT HAS 200HP AND IS STILL A GROCERY GETTER WITH 4 DR'S ITS NOT A SPORTS CAR BY ANY MEANS IT JUST HAS GOOD PICK-UP. ASK ANY FORD TECH OR ANY TECH PERIOD ITS WHO YOU KNOW IN THE CAR BUISNESS AND HOW MUCH MONEY YOU HAVE, YOU CAN GET ANYTHING YOU WANT ANY WAY YOU WANT IT JUST COST MONEY, ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE THE CONNECTIONS. THANKS SWEET!!! So according to him I can go to the Ford dealer and get a Focus with the "optional" Lightning engine. mmmmmmmmm torque......

ALSO [censored] IM NOT A KID, 45 IS NOT A KID, UNLESS YOU ARE 80. CONTOUR GROCERY GETTERS CLUB WANTED PEOPLE THAT WANT A SPORTS CAR BUT CANT AFFORD ONE OR DOESNT KNOW THAT 4DR CARS ARE NOT ANYTHING TO WRITE HOME ABOUT, ITS A HOPPED UP ESCORT, GET A CLUE YOURSELF BUD. ITS BEEN ENTERTAINING TO SAY THE LEAST READING AND EMAILING ALL YOU SVT WANNA BE'S
email #2
LET ME SAY YOU GUYS NEED TO GET A LIFE, MY CAR IS WHAT IT IS, THE HIGH BIDDER THOUGHT THE CAR WAS A SVT, HE MISREAD THE DESCRIPTION BECAUSE IT DOES SAY IT IS A 1999 SE CONTOUR 5 SP. SO BECAUSE OF THAT I LET HIM OUT OF THE AUCTION I HAVE SOLD THE CAR TO ANOTHER BIDDER THAT HAS ALREADY COME HERE AND SAW THE DYNO TEST DONE ON THE CAR HE ALSO HAS ALL THE ORIGINAL PAPERWORK, SO BELIEVE ME PAL I DO HAVE THE MEANS OF SUEING YOU IF I GET ANOTHER EMAIL FROM YOU TELLING ME THAT MY CAR IS SOMETHING THAT ITS NOT. IF YOU WERE SO INTERESTED YOU SHOULD COME OUT TO LOOK AT IT BEFOR YOU MAKE YOUR FALSE CLAIMS, I ALSO HAVE ALREADY EMAILED EBAY ALL THE INFO AND ALL THE COPIES OF WHAT THEY WOULD NEED TO SEE THAT I HAVE LISTED MY CAR TO THE FULLEST OF TRUTHFULNESS. AGAIN IF I WERE OUT TO SCREW SOMEONE IT WOULDNT BE BY SELLING A CAR FOR A FEW THOUSAND DOLLARS, IM NOT AN IDIOT, IF YOU READ EBAY TERMS YOU ARE NOT TO EMAIL ANYONE INCLUDING ME TELLING ME OR OTHERS YOUR OPINION OF SOMETHING WHEN YOUR NOT EVEN BIDDING ON THE CAR, NOR DID YOU ASK TO COME SEE THE CAR OR ANY OF THE PAPERWORK FROM THE FACTORY THE #'S ON THE ENGINE NOR THE COMPUTER ID #'S ETC. DYNO TEST ETC... I HAVE WASTED ENOUGH TIME ON YOU SVT MORONS, BUT I WILL BE GOING AHEAD WITH A LAWSUIT AGAINST YOU IF I HERE ANYMORE ABOUT IT, I HAVE PROVIDED ALL PAPERWORK TO THE BUYER AND EBAY JUST TO PROVE THAT I WAS IN THE RIGHT, IF YOU ARE WHO YOU SAY YOU ARE THEN YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT YOU CAN GET ANYTHING YOU WANT IN A CAR IF YOU ARE WILLING TO PAY FOR IT AND IF THE FACTORY DOES IT OR SUBS IT OUT TO WHOM EVER IT IS CONSIDERED FACTORY, SO GOOD LUCK WITH BUGGING ANYONE ELSE YOU MIGHT FIND ON EBAY .
I'm waiting for his excuse as to why he can't send me the dyno.
