Used Ford Contour for Sale near Lagrange, GA

Given to me by my dad for college, it was great. Still today it is the best handling car I've driven regularly. The V6 DOHC was perfect for the car, great for highway driving. Not much space, however the front seats were designed for a sports car. Wish I could find a suitable replacement.

Initially they were way over priced....but have become quite a used car bargain! German design adds some quirkiness to the interior but the front seats are very supportive and comfortable. The V-6 makes it a fun car to drive but hard to work on since its packed so tight under the hood. The early SE and later SVT models are the ones to get.

Great car for the runs to the store and small trips. Dependable vehicle with minor repair being the only problems. Cramped space when working in the engine compartment. Easy to customize with your own styling. College kid friendly without a doubt!

This was another attempt at a "world car" by Ford and was the most successful up to that point, largely because they didn't mess with the terrific handling the European engineers gave it. Arguably Ford's best overall offering at the time, but had a cramped back seat which hurt sales. Crap automatic tranny didn't help either, sapping performance and economy. Get a manual if you can. Still, handling and overall feel rival BMW, believe it or not. Subsequent generations not sold here carried on the Ford DNA, best sampled in the first-generation Focus.

For a 1995 v6, the car was great. split forged pistons, power everything. Excellent handling and a punchy 2.5 liter dohc engine with a 6750 rpm redline. Not much for a back seat on the inaugural year, they corrected it by the 96 model year.
