You are an idiot. Get off this site, if you hate the car so much. Yes, I had a Honda. Worst POS ever. Trans, clutch and rust problems. No thanks.
Spend money to fix the car, not getting a goofy tach, and E1 wheels. Get the car running right, before you modify.

My first car was luckily a Contour, and even though it wont be the easiest to deal with or work on at times....or ever it still will give you alot more to look foward to driving everyday as opposed to the Honda! Plus its a contour and you cant beat the power for the money!

Sell your car and buy one, please.
How much I wish I could. Unfortunely I have spent thousands on repairs in the short time I have owned this mistake. I doubt I could find anyone to give me 3 grand for it.
The next time you feel like posting a 'why doesn't anyone like me' thread, remember posts like these. Take Shaggy's advice....

Indeed! You're getting a free car. Consider yourself lucky.

thanx for the help
If your parents know the svt specs you're screwed plus insurance I'm sure will be higher on the svt. You're only hope might be to beg saying "but moooooooooooooom the svt is so much cooler, you hardly see them on the road compared to all the hondas." or "dad remember when you were in school didn't you want a really cool car that everyone would drool over?" neither of which will probably work.
Like some others said, be happy they're buying you a car to drive, a lot of us older kids never got that so hate you for it! j/k
