Im sorry this is a pointless post but i just have to get it out of me.

I love my svtc.

I got the car with 62k and im already hitting 66 not long after but thats simply because i enjoy driving this car so much.

I literraly could not ask for more.. i was looking for a car with the following things... good performance, good handling, 5spd, reasonable gas milage, and good looking and oh my the contour has got it all. Just walking up to my car and starting it up gives me a smile everytime I cant imagine that i actually got this car for 5 thosand with the trade in.. and i couldnt imagine anything else for that price that would make me as happy as this car does. I know this post is pointless but i just had to tell someone how excited i am that would understand!

I never see myself getting rid of this car ANYTIME soon. The car has a brand new tranny because when we got it the guy had most likly run over a curb or something and cracked the housing on the tranny so we got a entire new tranny, clutch,shift cables, smoothed out fly wheel and axles under a extend warentee plan we got. The repair bill was 4k! but with the extended warentee and a fee to get the car worked on they ended up paying for most of the work. Befor the tranny was grinding gears and it was very loose in gear but now its butter smooth ( well as smooth as it gets for a mtx tranny which can be a little sticky) Sence i have the new tranny im most likely going to get a 3.0 swap sometime in the future and have ALOT of life left in this car. I was wondering does the 3.0 taurus have this nice ruble to it that the 2.5 does? Anyway random post but i just wanted to show my 100% aprrovial of this beautiful car.

The 3.0L turbo sounds even better - something like a Noble M12.

Every time i look at my car sitting there not running, i feel the same way. Wow, it sure would be nice to have money to make it run.

If you'd stop spending on people you could get it going. You're so selfish.

That feeling will not go away, as long as you take good care of your SVT. Have fun!
