A vastly underrated car. Too bad it was cursed with the Contour name... these things handle like you wouldn't believe, and they're pretty damn quick too. Not bad looking, either. But no one who's looking for a performance car thinks "Contour," so it died. A shame, really.

But every where (that i know of e.g. most of europe, aust, brittan) else this is a mondeo. Which is a good car. Wins touring car races all the time etc.

NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE CAR. I LOVE THE CONTOUR SVT'S!!!!!! I am becoming more and more of a Ford man every day. I just traded my Mopar in for a Henry-mobile and I notice a big quality difference. Ford is much more reliable!

Yeah anyone who was looking for a sport sedan like this one bought a bimmer because even though it was almost as quick as a 323ci and handled just as well the status isn't there and most putzes who drive sport sedans didn't buy em for the driving experience we all know that.

If you want to notice even more reliability, switch to a Chevy.

Well I've had 4 and have been extremely happy with all of them. It's never in the shop.

My current Chevy (a 95 Z28) has 141,000 miles and it has only little nitpicking problems.

Yeah, there's gems from every brand, and lemons from every brand. It's silly to form your opinion of an entire brand based on one car.

I've had the best luck with Mopars. Just to confuse the issue further. Not a fan of new Fords. The dashboards MOVE when you push them.

I love this car, but I like the mercury version more (better looking headlights and grill)

I dig these. I don't think Chevy had a vehicle to really compete with these--and still don't, I don't think.

Needs more tropic green

I guess the closest thing was the Lumina LTZ, maybe, and even that was probably too large and floaty to be a direct competitor.

#16, I'd say it was too large and yeah, pretty floaty,
