1998 Contour

Ford spent a wallet threatening amount of money to develop this car along with the Mazda 626 and Mercury Mystique. I have owned several of these cars starting with a 97 Contour GL, 2 Mystiques both 98s ( one LS with a manual six cylinder and a desirable 4 with an automatic). 4 Contour SVT s all with manual transmission. And finally a 1996 Contour with a manual 5 speed, which was a personal favorite.

Reliable, fun to drive, economical.

First, my Contour is an SVT model. It is quick and fast, but more importantly, has excellent handling and perfectly modulated brakes. The 10 way power perforated leather seats with pneumatic lumbar are the most comfortable auto seats I've ever sat in. My mpg is 26 combined city and hwy. Reliability and cost of ownership is excellent.
