Contour SVT
I own a 98 Contour GL with a zetec I4 engine and auto trans. The suspension need to be better, (dropped 1.5 - 2 inches by use of coil overs) but the 0 - 60 is real respectable with it at 6.5. The engine and trans (both auto and 5speed) were designed by Porche. www.contour.org for more info!!

<SPAN class=bold>DJ605389 sorry but you are dead wrong. A SHO and contouruse</SPAN>completly differnt motors. The SHO uses a Yamaha 3.0 V6 DOHC 24 valve220 horsepower 200 lb-ft torque. 0-60 6.6 sec 1/4 mile 15.1 VS svt countours 2.5 v6 which is the SHOs baby sister engine , 1/4 mile 16'swhich uses all duratec engineering. The SVT would need some upgrades to beat a SHO. SHOSHOP.com is where I buy mySHO parts, they also have parts for SVT contours check it out. I wish SVT contours were as fast as SHOs i'd buy one.
