1998 Ford Contour Svt - Black/midnight Blue on 2040-cars
Harrison, New York, United States
|
I have owned my Contour for the past 5 or so years, however it is just time for me to move on, so I am selling it hopefully to someone who will appreciate it. For reference, I need to move the car quickly which is why I have priced it for a quick sale. I am happy to show the car over the weekend, but will most likely not be able to show it on week days unless you are ready to buy and have cash in hand and are ready to purchase.
The car is located in Lower Westchester County, NY, for those interested. As it sits, the car has about 107,000 miles. I bought the car with roughly 80,000 back in 2009. So as you can tell, it has had limited use over the last five or so years, but has done me well. The car has been very reliable, however, I will go ahead and list out everything that I currently know that may either be worth noting or possibly fixing if you are so inclined. The good: Low mileage for the year, as listed above Mostly Original, with the only modifications being a B&M short Shifter and British American Transfer (BAT) shocks/stuts and springs (these were installed probably three or four years ago) All electrics work - windows, sunroof, all lights, CD player New Goodyear Eagle F1 all season tires installed late last year New fuel pump installed earlier this year Car has been well serviced over its lifetime The car will come with winter tires on steel wheels The car will come with ford manuals if I can grab them out of storage (I think I know where they are, but not a total promise ) The Not so Good There is a check engine light that comes on intermittently – it is due to a false reading on the o2 sensor, a known issue with these cars that does not affect drivability at all Recently, the battery has started draining when it sits – The car probably needs a new battery as its been a number of years on the current one, and the car doesn’t get driven often The drivers side light has a leak, so it has condensation in it The power antenna stopped working Some dings on the bumpers due to a year or so of city living The car runs and drives great. The clutch is fine with plenty of grab left in it. It has just been an all around great car, but at 15+ years old, you should expect somewhat tired paint and wear and tear with the mileage. However, it is a great car for the price, and would make someone happy I'm sure for many more years. Please let me know if anyone has questions, happy to answer. |

2015 Ford Mustang to make world debut on Dec. 5 [w/video]
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Between a bevvy of spy shots, speculative renders and insidery images from the halls of Car and Driver, we've got a pretty decent idea of what the 2015 Ford Mustang might look like. Still, we're excited to see the real deal as soon as possible.
Turns out that Ford has told us just when that first official look might come, too, although it has chosen somewhat of a backdoor fashion for dropping the news.
The video below popped up on the Ford Mustang YouTube channel this morning, promoting a social media effort called #MustangInspires on. The video and hashtag ask fans of the pony car to share pictures of the car - or "photographic stories of inspiration" - on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, etc. But the truly interesting part of the video description is that which mentions taking "the cover off the all-new Mustang" on December 5. Consider our calendars marked.
Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Sun, Jul 9 2023The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric. Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands. If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla. Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor. Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have: Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
Petrolicious pays visit to tuning sensation the Ringbrothers
Fri, 08 Nov 2013We caught up with a few projects from Ringbrothers at SEMA this year: a classic Ford Mustang body rendered in carbon fiber, and a De Tomaso Pantera-based concept that made us swoon.
It's with good timing then, that our friends at Petrolicious have uploaded their newest, well-crafted mini-documentary to the expansive airwaves of the Internet. Here, we meet the brothers Ring in person - Mike and Jim - and see how they've lent they're passion for craftsmanship to their business, along with their surname. A 1964 Ford Fairlane dubbed "Afterburner" and a 1965 Mustang called "Producer" star in this show.
