My heart breaks for the Contour SVT
My heart breaks for this car because it is truly fun to drive. I've put Borla exhaust on it with chrome tips and custom built cold air intake. It sounds great at low and high RPM. The turning capability is sensational, very responsive. Plus, it rides smooth at high speeds. But, almost everything that can go wrong on a car went wrong on this car. Most unrelieble car ever mad in fact. Since ive owned this car the linkage cable snapped when downshifting, the clutch went at about 15,000, the ant motor went, trunk leaks, O2 sensor replace numerous times, the highlights fogged up, radio turns on and off randomly, water pump dead, terrible gas mileage and most likely the worst AC unit ever replace 5X
Great Sedan
One of the greatest sedans Ford has ever made.Handles very well and can keep up and beat many sport coupes.Good gas mileage on the highway and around town.Have 72,000 and runs great even past 100mph.
Contour: best sport sedan value of '99
This car is awesome.

Mostly reliable, once a year needs repair/maintenance, twice tuneup and oil change
Happy Trails
I leased my Contour SVT for a 3 year period. I loved the thrill of driving this car so much I had to go back and buy it out. I don't know too many other Low Displacement, All Aluminum, Midsize Domestics under $30K that have as sweet an Exhaust note as this bad-boy does when you open it up. I try not to let it go too often as Tires ain't cheap (Especially in Canadian Funds)
