[QUOTE="TJSwoboda, post: 236409, member: 6882"] I first learned of the SVT Contour's existence reading the April 1999 Car & Driver (excellent sports sedan comparo), and instantly fell in love with it. I never saw one until I walked into Carmax 2 1/2 years later to look at the one I'd found on their website, which by a startling coincidence is the one I'm still driving. :D In Spring 2000, however, I did see two ladies get into a Contour in the parking lot at work, and when they back out it made that growling sound that manual transmissions make in reverse. It could have been a regular 6 or 4 cyl. MTX or an SVT, I didn't get to look at the back of it. :( After buying mine, I've seen a few on the road, a total of three I think. --T.J. [/QUOTE]
