Originally posted by 98 SE: Originally posted by stodge: I don't know if this helps, but I looked at a Contour that was advertised as a 98, when in fact it was built and registered in 97, so it was really a 97.
Ford manufactured the cars the summer/fall of the year before they sold them, and sold in the winter of that year. Many autos are done this way. Mine was built 10/97, and some of the '95 Contours are rapidly approaching their 10th anniversary this fall.
For example, take a look at how many '05 model vehicles you will see out this summer and fall.
Exactly. Build date only roughly relates to model year. My '98 SVT was built in April of '97. Its definitely a '98
