1999 Blue Ford Contour Review: Problematic and Fugly

I have driven an aging blue Ford Contour for the last couple of years and it has been a trusty transportation device (except for when the brakes exploded). I have put approximately 20k miles on it, mostly shuttling myself back and forth between Seattle and my grandparent’s house in Puyallup. The Ford Contour is pretty roomy, which is great for tall guys. The Contour also is the least romantic vehicle ever made. It’s not-so-ballsy 4 banger engine will get you around, but not fast. The smooth lines do not compare to those of Ford’s better vehicles, such as the Mustang, or cars from better makers like Lamborghini, Ferrari, Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, or just about any other car maker in existence.

I can’t wait to purchase a better vehicle. I want to get something with some balls and fire… Suggestions?

    Skip any of the American made BS unless you want to buy brand new (which is stupid unless you’re going super high end). Ford finally had a year where their cars rated better than the imports in 2007- for the first time in forever.

    Get a two door Lexus model (coupe), an Acura, or another more grown up vehicle. You’re a man, not a Puyallup high school jerk off whose parents is paying for it.
