WOW today my friend and I took my neighbors 1996 Ford contour SE out for alittle spin wow this baby had a duratec 2.5l v-6 dohc engine in it and it FLEW we pulled some phat *** burnouts this sucker burnt out hardcore through 1st gear and when into second about 5 feet of tread and into 3rd alittle squeak but this was a pimp ride had leather moonroof power seats power locks power windows traction control (turned off burning out tho) only problem is he is my nighbor and someone called the cops on us got his lisence plates cause we were speeding though town burning out and stuff but wow i was real impressed by this phat car........ BTW it was manual never thought a 2.5l v-6 could have this much power alot more power than my 1995 ford contour gl 2.0l zetec dohc automatic.............he was amazed at the deal i got on my contour also 130 bucks he was like get outa here........lol......btw he wanted $3000 for it

did u get in trouble for the burnouts?

Not even your car....if you did that to MY car...I'd have to kill ya

suprizinly no my friend was driving the whole time i never drove in it he got real pissed at the cop and he ended up not giving him a ticket good thing he has had like literally 7 tickets in the past 4 months and were on bail right now..........I havent got ne tickets on bail tho last ticket was for registration awhile back

I see :?

I suppose this is why insurance for youth is off the charts...makes sense to me now.

O comon you never did ne crazy stuff when you were 17 years old comon everyone does at this age see reason my friend and i can test drive phat cars is cause no one expects what we do we are 17 year old kids he look litterally 27 big beard 390 lb guy pretty big dude and we are real legit when we talk about the car acting like we really wana buy it but we like test driving cars

Eh dont make generic statements. I know not to do crap to my car like this. I'm yet to do even a burnout in my life. I even own a contaur and I never even dreamed of doing this stuff to it, I seriously would kill the man that would. And if they did it to my bonneville, good luck identifying them. What I'm getting to is, I'm 19 and I'm chill on the road yet I'm still paying insurance out the *** thanks to these people

I've driven the big v6 with a stick and sunroof, and leather. 3.5 i think? It wasn't that much, more then the two others, with i-4s i've driven in mystique or contour form.

Not bad though.

I never did when i was 17... then again, i owned a 1990 4 cyl Nissan pick-up so I really couldn't but I didn't try. And seriously don't mess with other peoples cars like that killer, they can sue you

the fastest small ford (next to the sho) ive seen go "fast" was a bolt on svt focus that ran a 16.1 @ 86...
