LoL S2K i used to work at a Ford dealership and i have driven them and if you can get it for under 10k i would recommend it they are good cars although they are a little ( actually make that alot ) understated but they are good cars allround not alot of power ( about 160whp ) but enough to get you in trouble if you are not paying attention and the handling is neutral and forgiving also they are fuel efficient and all round fun to drive. ok i hope that helps

They are ok cars stick with the SVT or SEV6 the Four Cylinder ones had Mad electrical problems especially the lighting system the tail lights/liscense would cut in and out. My sister had one and there has been no recall for it despite the numerous complaints. The car itself works fine. BTW she has a 98 Ford Contour GL VCT. You can check this place its the Contour Enthusiasts forum http://contour.org/
