Up for sale is my 2000 SVT Contour Black with Tan interior. 2.5l DOHC with just over 77k miles. Only mods are Koni adjustable struts and H&R springs all the way around and a poly rear roll resistor. Clean NC title, no accidents.


Ive had 6 of these SVT Contours, this one being the lowest mileage one that ive had, but its far from the nicest of the ones ive had. It was neglected badly before i bought it. I bought it to save it from sitting... But it still needs some TLC to be a good DD. I just no longer have the time, as my job has me commuting over 4hrs a day. And if im going to come home and work on something its going to be my foxbody mustang im trying to finish. 

Black paint is in decent shape. No fading, it shines up very nice. Does have its share of scratches and dings.
Interior is very nice minus the dash warp. I have the ford recall kit, just needs to be installed. Honestly if i were to keep it i would probably just swap another dash in it and be done. Also does not have the SVT floor mats. Has an aftermarket headunit.
Koni adj struts/shocks with H&R lowering springs. 
Engine runs good, has been very reliable. No check engine lights. Could use plugs and wires...
Clutch has been recently changed for an OEM replacement. Transmission shifts great, except from time to time in first gear it doesnt want to go in but its mostly getting use to how to shift it. Looks like the shifter bushings are worn out and ive picked up replacement bushings that just need to be swapped in.
Auto radio antenna works up and down. Heat and A/C work

NEEDS:

E-Brake Cables are stretched and the e-brake doesnt engage, common problem on these cars.
Dash warp fixed
Shift cable bushings replaced
Scratch on rear PS quarter
Alignment- drives fine, steering wheel is a little off, but not by much
Sunroof motor/cover

Im very anal and picky about my cars, so im just trying to list everything. I understand some of these issues could be a deal breaker to some. I can work out something with fixing these issues for the right price. Just trying to give someone a good deal who can see what this car is with a little work.

Ladies Love It: Ford Fiesta wins Womens World Car of the Year

Thu, 25 Jul 2013

It's official: A panel of female automotive writers has chosen the Ford Fiesta 1.0-liter EcoBoost as the Womens World Car of the Year, and it beat tough competition like the Mazda CX-5, Range Rover and Porsche Boxster S for the overall top spot.
The CX-5 and Range Rover won the SUV and Luxury Car categories, respectively, and the Boxster S laid claim to the Sports Car category, beating the runner up Audi RS5 and third place Toyota GT86/Subaru BRZ (or Scion FR-S). The Audi Allroad was named the Family car of the year.
The panel consisted of 18 female automotive writers from around the world tasked with picking the best car in each of eight categories, including top vehicle overall, using criteria that women utilize when shopping for a car. That includes safety, value-for-money, aesthetic appearance, storage space, child-friendliness, ease-of-driving, color, sex appeal and environmental footprint.

Motorweek goes retro with '80s hot hatch shootout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

Motorweek's decades of history on television make it the perfect medium to look back into the automotive past and see how things are different now. It recently added old road test videos to its YouTube channel of the Acura NSX and Toyota Supra, as well as the Ferrari F40. For one of its newest flashback clips, Motorweek has exhumed an affordable five-car challenge of 1986's premiere hot hatches.
By today's standards, this is an eclectic field that features fondly remembered classics like the Volkswagen GTI 16-valve and Acura Integra. However, it also throws in some nearly forgotten contenders like the Dodge Colt Turbo and Ford Escort GT. The angular Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S rounds out the group.
It's fascinating to watch Motorweek run the quintet through the slalom, down the drag strip and on various roads. What's most striking in this clip is the difference in the definition of a performance car between then and now. With its 16-valve, 1.8-liter four-cylinder, the GTI is the burliest of the contenders with 123 horsepower, but it still takes 8.8 seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. By today's standards, that would make it a plain-jane economy car, and not even a particularly quick one.

More than 800,000 Fords recalled for faulty Takata airbags

Thu, Jan 12 2017

The Basics: Ford is recalling about 816,000 Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles built in the US for faulty passenger-side Takata airbags. The affected vehicles were all built in North America, with 654,695 recalled vehicles in the US and 161,174 vehicles in Canada. A wide variety of cars, trucks, and SUVs are affected. This is a planned expansion of an earlier recall. 2005-09 and 2012 Ford Mustang 2005-06 Ford GT 2006-09 and 2012 Ford Fusion 2007-09 Ford Ranger 2007-09 Ford Edge 2006-09 and 2012 Lincoln Zephyr and Lincoln MKZ 2007-09 Lincoln MKX 2006-09 Mercury Milan The Problem: Like every other Takata recall, the problem rests with faulty airbags that can potentially expel shrapnel, injuring or killing vehicle occupants. Millions of vehicles from dozens of automakers are affected, so don't think that Ford is alone on this one. Injuries/Deaths: Ford stated in a press release that there have been no injuries or death linked to the vehicles in this recall. All in all, 11 deaths and 180 injuries across a variety of automakers have been linked to these Takata airbags. The fix: Ford will contact owners soon, and the affected vehicles will have their airbags replaced by a dealer at no additional charge. If you own one: Wait for contact from Ford, then head to the dealer to get a replacement. If you're wondering if your vehicle is affected, go to this Ford website and enter their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The recall reference number is 17S01.
