Does all of that extra plastic cut your lap times on trips to the grocery store?
sorry, couldn't pass up first shot

No extra plastic, just whats there courtesy of Ford.
And yes, yes it does.
oh and for the record...the sun shade is actually an OEM Ford part...you just can't get it state side.

Re: Ford SVT Contour #5979
it appears you realize that this car unfortunately is highly susceptible to the vadriven hater gang, but you're not going to let that deter you. my first question i'd pose to these guys is to ask them what they drive and consider the source.
i actually like it, a lot. these cars are actually very, very fun to drive and pretty damn quick. the torque from that v6 is amazing. i'm sure it still suffers the horrid build quality that contours/mystiques were notorious for- i worked at a lincoln-mercury dealership for a few years and the recall book on these things was thicker than any other vehicle, and that is saying a lot. that said, this one is tastefully done contrary to the anti-rice patrol. i wouldn't have chosen to do the hood that way, but it's not obnoxious imo.
nice.

I don't like the hood, and well... it's a Contour but other than the hood it's a cool Contour.

Re: Ford SVT Contour #5979
it definately needs a oem hood...pick n pull has tons of contours,rund over and grab one...
but yes these are fairly quick...by buddy dallas used to have a green one that he boosted...it was quick as hell till it threw a rod years later..

Props for doing something different. I like the car a a lot.
Not a big fan of the hood but cool anyhow.

Re: Ford SVT Contour #5979
considering its a contour and the things weve seen done to other similar style cars, I must say, well done sir.
