The car was as slow as death in a straight line, but it handled better than you could possibly hope for in a sedan. Communicative, light, and nimble; the Contour is very well-known by enthusiasts as one of the best handling sedans ever made. The build quality was very impressive, and the car was extremely reliable. The Zetec motor was strong and smooth, but the 4-speed ATX killed whatever guts it had. While the trans shifted smoothly and competently, the 5-speed manual is a MUST for fun-loving drivers. The car was 14 years old when it finally was donated, and didn't have a spot of rust.

Great handling little car, not enough power. Cheap as hell insurance and fairly good mileage. Taught me a lot owning it cause I was constantly modifying something. The manual trans swap really woke it up.

I love the fact that I've never had anything major wrong with the car. It runs very well, and I get great gas mileage. The car is old, but it drives fine!

Bought this vehicle when I lived in Kansas City so my wie could have a better car to drive. It was fuel efficient, was comfortable, but became crampt for longer trips. What I did like about this vehicle is that we walked away from a 80 mph hit from a drunk driver. The unitized build literally save our lives. This would be a good starter car for a new driver.
