Used 1999 Ford Contour for Sale near Los Angeles, CA

The Ford Contour I bought runs good and is comfortable to drive, but the parts on it are extremely cheaply made and break very easily, especially the handles to roll up the windows. All 4 of them broke and I can only get them at the dealer, for $16.00 each. That's insane! On top of that, the majority of the parts that break are only available from the dealer at HUGE prices. The dipstick broke because it is made of cheap plastic, and it broke off right at the dipstick tube, so I almost didn't get it out. The dashboard curled up due to heat from the sun and can't be fixed, only replaced (by the dealer of course). The car has been a constant annoyance and I can't wait to trade it in on a non-Ford auto as soon as possible. I HATE this car and now I know why everybody rags on Fords. They are very cheaply built and you can't get replacement parts anywhere except the dealer.

I love this car, its always been faithful and it is pretty spunky and i can hit 100 mph no problem. As for acceleration, its not bad at all. Its very fun to drive and i am quite glad mine is a manual.

Good little run around car, not somthing to brag about though... Sheetmetal is very easily dented, car runs rough with the ac on. The five speed is a must, the car is powerless up hills. good cheap ride, fairly cheap to fix.

i really did not like this car
