Well whos to say the contour speedo is right, at high speeds?



Tachometer! You can calculate your speed with your tach and the contour speedometer is very close to the real speed.

I remember reading a study on this, supposedly GM and Fords had much more reliable speedometers (all domestics tested better). Koreans were next, followed by Japanese, and Germans were the worst.



We also have a VW V-6 Passat with a 5 speed and it also reads dead on. From my experience, the Japanese were the worst! The Germans were the best followed by the domestics.
