  • Music sucks ass.

  • Im pretty sure Steve would know better then to put a gay ass wing on a fwd car (hence this owner has no idea what spoilers actually do do) and a mexican body kit.(not the worst i seen, but still does nothing but make it look bad).

    Just the opinion of a Motorsport enthusiast.

  • @JuiceBoxJeff Wow, are you dim? or just racist? This is a Saleen Contour, and I happen to know the Owner. Only 1 was ever made, they never had the Supercharger hooked up right, which is amazing because Vortech produced a kit that netted 320 whp on these cars. Saleen I guess is clueless when it comes to V6s. No need to bring up Mexicans or bash the Navy. LOL I am just pissed, Steve got a burr up his ass and destroyed the molds when they sold this car.

  • "NOT BAD, BUT IVE SEEN BETTER KITS."

  • I saw one of these blow the doors off an Imprezza OZ once...

  • what do they call these oh yea poor man mustangs

  • svt and saleen are 2 different divisions saleen makes his own cars and svt just does bolt on parts and showy like shit. like theres an svt focus and theres a saleen focus... there is no svt saleen focus its one or the other all svt and saleen cars are like that

  • Would they sell it

  • @bassheadray They did sell it, to a private owner and a friend of mine. He will not part with it, but for more pics join Ford Contour .Org.

  • POS

  • what song is this playing?

    

  • ugh, the only things bad about this car, are the spoiler and stupid ass decal or whatever the hell it is on the door, and the fact that it never went into production

  • The one was not a 1999 it was a early 1998 look at the rims

  • saleen must have realized what a mistake he would have made by putting his name on such a shitty car like a ford contour, wtf.

  • Iv'e seen one of those in my neighborhood rollin around...except the one I saw was a metallic dark blue color and also with the word Saleen all over the windows..

  • Absolutely hideous

  • @ndubs68 like you...

  • yea its not a saleen SVT it may have been a SVT at one point but steve saleen makes his own shit he does not have to only do fords either he now has a challenger out but SVT is fords special vehicle team theres no connection between the two and they have never built a car together its either one or the other

  • @0220SVTFOCUS well its both it has saleen written all over it, saleen bodywork and suspension, it even debuted in 1999 as a saleen concept that never made it to production. im not sure if hes the current or previous owner but he bought it for 20k from the saleen facility some years ago.

  • they are seperate companies but saleen does take a few svt cars and trucks and uses them to make saleens out of, Look up a 03-04 cobra saleen.

  • What a sexy car

  • I have a 2000 Ford Contour Sport. Worst piece of crap I've ever owned.

  • ok this is a fucking lie there is no saleen svt contour or for the fact no saleen svt anything saleen and svt are almost the same thing and ford makes them both they are both special vehicles and they wouldnt/cant combine the two that would be stupid all u did was what u said to do put a body kit on it and i didnt see any pics of the motor find one then we will talk

  • @25PROMO you are wrong about the wouldnt and cant, cuz they can and would. i agree with the whole motor thing, but find me another one of those with even the same bod kit. cuz honestly id love that on my SVT

  • @25PROMO yea svt and saleen can and have made the same car. I've seen several saleen 03-04 cobras...saleen suspension, brakes, body kit, decals, wheels, spoiler, etc....the drivetrain is all svt...dohc 4.6 with eaton supercharger makin 390 horses underraded which is more than the regular supercharged saleen at the time and nearly as much as the 281e, but with much more potential and probably a more rare care...the interior is all svt...seats...160 white glo gauges etc...look it up

  • ok this is a fucking lie there is no saleen svt contour or for the fact no saleen svt anything saleen and svt are almost the same thing and ford makes them both they are both special vehicles and they wouldnt/cant combine the two that would be stupid all u did was what u said to do put a body kit on it and i didnt see any pics of the motor find one then we will talk

  • lol ford mondaeo

  • as a previous owner of this type of car, i loved it first of all.. however anyone dumb enough to dump this kind of money into this car is an idiot, you're better off buying a classic car for 8500, and using the stock contour as a daily driver... a supercharger? or this hunk? are you kidding me?

  • looks pretty fat. ive got a mondeo (european model of contour)...

  • my riviera is faster the contour svt is between 195-200 hp mines 250 hp at the wheels!

  • @will79601 No stock Riviera makes 250 at the wheels, you obviously have mods...and I would expect a boosted SC Riviera would beat a CSVT stock...but keep in mind a) any car can be modded to be quick, b) a stock Riviera with 240bhp will still lose to a CSVT with 200bhp and c)a lot big ass Sedans are sold with lots of power (e.g. Volvo S80's- 300bhp I've seen take down Evo's, Taurus SHO- 365bhp!, Saab Aero-280bhp, etc)

  • @ajlod934893 i meant at the crank not the wheels my bad sorry but I have beaten an svt contour twice!

  • @will79601 Really? You must have come up against some shit drivers...cause a Riveria isn't going to beat a CSVT even with 250 horse cause they are just too damn big and heavy, plus slow shifting because of the automatic (not trying to dis your car for the record). CSVT 0-60 is low 7's, Riveria 240 bhp is high 7's (add 10 hp you might be in mid 7's around around there)

  • @will79601 Also, a) a lot of people don't know how to launch a car, and b)a lot of people choose not to launch from a start cause that's a quick way to break your differential (FWD and AWD) and easily be 2 or 3k in the hole for tranny rebuilt. Anyway you should fix up your Riveria, those things easily have the potential to be really quick sleepers. Just pull up and someone laughs at you for driving a Riveria and then you smoke their ass? What's more classic than that?

  • @ajlod934893 right plus i need to paint it bad rebuilding the engine now spun rod bearing as soon as I get a chance I will put a video on youtube talking about smoking people I had a 94 ford tempo v6 5spd bored .30 over lol that little car was fast believe it or not

  • i laugh when i see these cars theres two in town and they think there hot shot and they always try to get me to run against them when im in my A4 1.8t and i dont rod on that at all but i told them i'd race them in the F-350 and the one did and his turbo 3.0l didn't stand a chance agaisnt the 7.3l with just a hyperpac power programer i like the SVT contour but when ppl try and make them civics i want to puke

  • Why bother to comment if all you have to say is something negative, stupid, and totally irrelevant?

  • i call bs on that!

  • @will79601 The svt contour's are slow man trust me and turbo diesiel will walk all over a contour and that include pulling a boat the turbo svt in town is making 350-370fwhp not a whole lot it bareley beats the new mustangs which are rather slow you must not be familiar with diesel engine more or less the 7.3l Powerstroke which virtually is the motor you going to get even chevy fans and dodge fans no that it's hard to compare anything to the 7.3l

  • @streetpunk83 Duh. I've seen those things run down WRX's too, but it still doesn't mean shit. CSVT isn't designed for running straight line 0-60. I always laugh at douche bags like you in big trucks thinking they're cool trying to race STi's in straight lines. It's about track racing, if you want to drag race perhaps try running up with some old muscle cars yes? They are in the same boat you are. New Mustangs slow? At 315bhp I don't think so (I know your bs too no 315bhp Stang would run with a..

  • @streetpunk83 ...CSVT making the same bhp, let alone 20 or 30 more at the wheels! (200bhp CSVT will beat 240bhp regular Stang). Speed is relative...(what do you consider "fast"? R35, ZR1, Viper, etc?) I'm really going to laugh when you try to keep up with some shit box Kia in a corner and you flip your giant ass truck.

  • @streetpunk83 For the record an A4 1.8t (brand new) will get smoked by a CSVT. Oddly enough, the CSVT was built as a competitor to the A4 back in the late 90's, and it toasted the A4 in every performance category.

  • @ajlod934893 Yeah and i wouldnt want to race my family car and daily driver fast way to fuck it up and the F350 dually is pretty fucken hard to roll over and you'd be lucky if the KIA even made it to the corner 1st of all the r35 is a joke of a car and an evo stock is a decently fast car the srt-4 another decently fast car it dosent have to be a supercar to be fast my first car was a 93 mustang gt wasent fast stock but once we swapped it to the 347ci stroker it started showing it colors

  • @streetpunk83 I know I'm just saying. Why is R35 a joke? Just curious. That's funny I used to have a 93' GT too...350 bhp got to love those fox bodies? It handled like a beast too w/ Koni struts and shocks. Anyway I lost to an F350 in my 93' so I know they can be fucking fast...I'm just saying most people don't care they aren't a performance vehicle and they can't handle for shit. I own a CSVT now and I know it's not quick, but I wouldn't say slow either. Plus they have awesome handling and...

  • @streetpunk83 ...and WAY fun to drive on a daily basis. Anyway with the Kia comment I was over exaggerating but you get what I'm saying right?

  • @streetpunk83 It's actually quite funny too...everyone tries to race me because a) my loud exhaust (mods) and b)I like to accelerate quicker strictly for the fun of feeling the power, not for racing other people.

  • The Duratec family of motors is by no way built designed or does it even use any Yamaha parts

  • wow what a piece of crap

  • This car isn't rice. It is an SVT contour(so it is a performance car to begin with), which definitely was modified by Saleen's race shop, and it's documented as such. If it was a Saleen cobra would you say rice? likely not. But the car shares the same manufacturer, the same special vehicle team, and the same race shop.

  • He must really like that body style

  • They should have produced that car!

  • @SVTDEMON420 Hah, it's funny how you like those contours so much.. in europe those are sold as ford mondeo, they have different lamps and bumbers and some smaller engines avalible but they are treated like crap and they are sold at 150-500 euros .. :D

  • @gaedzable I am well aware of the Mondy, ST200 and ST220 were good cars, but for the most part their stock counterparts were troublesome, obviously not a Cossie, but alas I live stateside, All I can Do Is Dream.

  • can u tell me who produced this song please

  • its at tha end of tha video

  • I like how people act like the person who owns that car did the modifications and bash him for it. And all the people saying its a "ricer's car with saleen stickers on it." IT IS A SALEEN CONTOUR. There was only one made by Saleen and that is the one. Obviously they never made it a production vehicle but they did design that car and build it. I don't think it's pretty either, but it is a one of a kind car and if someone can afford it WTF cares?! I don't know if the same guy owns it anymore tho.

  • @snakous im not sure if the same guy who bought it from the facility owns it but he did pay 20k for it. I've also heard of him selling it to somebody in AZ.

  • My Contour is going to look like that one day

  • this is shraight sexy

  • the car is nice but the air diffuser package is too much, and that wing is bullshit

    i was expecting higher hp gains from saleen, 60 over stock is wack for such a premier tuner

  • That is one fucking ugly piece of shit right there. Just because it says "Saleen" on it doesn't mean it's not rice.

  • holy hell your right D:

  • its American and its not rice, it has 4 valves per cylinder

  • Obviously you don't understand what "rice" means. It's butt ugly, it's got a humongous wing on the back, and stickers all over it (like any Saleen). It's rice.

  • its not asian

  • What does that have to do with anything? Rice means tacky, not Asian.

  • define tacky

  • this piece of shut is hella tacky, it was never made, its some ricers ride with saleen stickers.

  • sorry, its not asian, its not ricer. period. no matter how tacky

  • well, actually, RICE stands for race inspired cosmetic enhancements. In this case, Saleen made a race car, so its looks like any other race car at that point.(think about the GT class in the Rolex cup or Grand Am)

  • That's a backronym; rice doesn't stand for anything, it came from the fact that the cars being modified were Japanese. Race cars don't look like dog shit, ricers do. See above car.

  • i'll have to disagree, the things they add are almost always something that would be seen on a race car. Big wing, sideskirts, front/rear bumpers, sponsor stickers, crazy paint jobs, racing seats, but then don't have any go fast parts to back it all up. It may be a "backronym" but it still fits the bill perfectly.

  • Ricey body kits are not race parts. Giant heavy wheels are not race parts. Parts that do nothing other than change the aesthetics of the vehicle are not race parts.

    A ricer doesn't look anything like a race car; that's one of the reasons why people make fun of them.

  • I guess this depends on your definition of rice, but honestly man, they are RACE INSPIRED. They however do not generally follow ANY racing model. Perfect example, look at the Autohaus Motorsports Pontiac GXP and tell me if that didn't have racing performance parts it wouldn't be considered "Rice". That is my point, all rice parts were spawned from something functional on a race car. This is why race inspired cosmetic enhancements works so well.

  • It's not my definition, it's the origin of the term. "Rice" refers to tacky modifications. Chrome hubcap spinners and useless hood scoops are not race-inspired parts.

  • ok, i definitely agree there.

  • He makes a point.

    The issue with rice, and what makes it derogatory, is that it's race-lookin parts tacked on to something that doesn't merit having the parts.

    A huge wing on an old, stock, ragged CRX that can't hit 95 is rice.

    Having a FUNCTIONAL, reasonably sized wing on a CRX that's actually aggresively quick isn't rice.

    Not something I would ever drive, but not rice.

  • well, the engine is made by Yamaha if i'm not mistaken... so its partially american.

  • lol the contour engine made by yamaha? no way lol

  • the engine of the svt contour is hand built by SVT.

  • well, i know for a fact the SHO engine is made by Yamaha, so i would think that the engine in the SVT being they are basically the same car would also... wait, ok, fine, maybe it was assembled by the SVT team, but still Yamaha engineering and parts.

  • @Swansen03 yea true but they are 2 entirely different cars and the SVT team used thier own cams intakes and parts to the regular 2.5.

  • oh, gotcha

  • @Swansen03 The old 90s SHO was a Yamaha motor that Ford planned to use for a motorcycle.

    The DURTec V6 is Fords engine and the SVT version is basically upgraded cams, intakes and shafts. Its not related to Yamaha at all.

    As for the Saleen, nice but you can mod a 99 SE or SVT to more than 260HP.

  • @lgisdatdude is a duratec from mazda

  • @germansc duratecs are ford degined/built motors, Astons V12s are also of the duratec design btw

  • @lgisdatdude Duratec was actually originally a Porsche engine...I swear...they sold the design to Ford who then got input from Cosworth. I swear...you can look it up. Given its time frame of development, started around 1990, it is a pretty sweet design.

  • that car look really sick damn but only 1 wtf???

  • learn how to type you fags

  • its stubid ...wota peace of junk ..geta st200 alot better

  • dats stupid...y wuld i pay like 4 grand to get a car dats worth 4 grand onto american soil n waste 8 grand when there is tha svt contour for 3.5 grand. i jus saved 4.5 grand by not listenin to u.

  • well dick-ed..one thats all ready been inported..plus i wasnt talkin to you in genral

  • i have yet to see an st200 or a mondeo in any shape or form in the states. so tell me: whats the difference between a contour svt and a mondeo st200, in terms of performance.

  • a st200 Performance8.5/10

    Overall Rating8.5/10 il post more on your comment box..look at my main video thats my st200

  • sounds smooth, i sent u a message wit a shit load of details n wat not.

  • hahahahaha, learn to talk fucking nigger (nigger as in you think your gangster and know your shit, not becouse your black, or think your black)

    its not even real, its just a riced out contour, and its a domestic car, not imported, fucking stupid peice of shit.

  • Guys, different people, different opinions, I personally like how the poster has dedicated time and love into making a truly custom car. Also, do not put down one's language skills while yours are not up to par (although it appears as though your last post isn't too bad).

    Respectfully, Me, 84 SVO owner, power to the Fords, guys.

  • ur dumb it is a real car

  • nice

  • i know someone that has on here in alaska!

  • there is only one. and if he did buy it he is a complete dumbass. he paid 20k for a car that can hardly run and fucked up body parts and cracking carbon fiber pieces. ur dumbass friend wouldve been better off buying an svt n investing a lot less money for a better result. the saleen is just a one of kind contour and nothing else special

  • "Special" Vehicle Team. It all makes sense now, their all retarded.

  • this is a beutiful car and the wing actully looks good!!

  • this is the worst car I have ever seen.

    Nice wing-fag

  • No matter which way you slice it, it's still a Contour.

  • Thats a pretty giant wing your hauling around there, you need a special license for that? J/K Nice car.

  • Thats not a real Saleen, First it has a VORTECH in it, if it was a real Saleen it would have the Saleen positive displacment twin screw supercharger. Second Saleen and SVT do not work together , they are 2 different companies and above all, rivals, and lastly why would they only make one? its just stupid to make one, somebody put that stuff on aftermarket and put the saleen sticker on. its actually very easy to do. so there you go, its not actually a Saleen but just an aftermaket clone.

  • You are wrong, I didn't belive it myself.

    But there actualy is 1 Saleen Contour ... use google.

  • haha,, you dont have to feel bad for the guy who bought this car.  He is a very well known driver in the st louis area. he is a porsche and audi driver, and has some very quick porsche's and audi's as well as a c63amg. There is a lot of mis information about this car.... the reason he bought it is because the car has a pancake porsche motor in it. the car is capable of breaking 200 mph and he bought it for $18000, so dont feel sorry, thats a fair price for a fast car and a piece of history

  • You dont know what you are talking about

  • ill believe it when i see it, the fastest ive seen a svt contour go was 160mph, it had a 3l and turbo and other stuff.

  • nice cars, but there not worth shit. and that one is fucking ugly. I feel bad for the guy who wasted all his money on grandmas car.

  • the ford taurus is grandma's car

  • i dont see any grandparents driving a taurus. they drive 500's if there driving Fords, or 300 if there into Chrystlers haha

  • the number closest to their age :-P

  • bitch are u retarded what do u drive i mean i have a pos cavalier and absolutely hate fords but i guarantee that svt contour would smoke any car u got

  • yeah, the SVT contours are quick as shit, whereas your whips are just plain old shit

  • that thing looks like some JDM dude got a hold of it and went to town. Not my style

  • pues ami me laten los countur son muy buenos y lo digo por q yo tengo uno es ultimo q salio el de lujo muy confortable lastima q ya lo estan bendiendo !!! al gien q se interese

    mar q al celular 0445550538014 mexico df

  • no habla espanol. ?hablas ingles? my spanish is probably incorrect as fuck.

  • its a front whell drive car, and it has a spoiler that big? Are you serious? Its just slowing that car down.

  • SWEET! I'll take 2! Do you accept paypal?

  • too bad theres only one, lol

  • nice bench on the trunk

  • yea i think its too much, dont need all the downforce

  • pointless spoiler alert!

  • there is no need for a spoiler that big

  • There's only one.  I know who owns it.

  • IF!!! you know who owns the saleen then have them post of video of it moving cause even im tired of watching a video that I!!! made of these pictures

  • I'd tell you but i would be murdered :)

  • The replica looks way off lol.

  • yea i agree. the body kit is for a mondeo, and you can get a spoiler and rims that are identical off the internet

  • Saleen destroyed the molds for the kit.

  • why would they destroy the molds for the kit, thats retarded as well as you are.

  • Haha, way to make random assertions. I know who owns the car, and who owned it previously. Saleen destroyed the molds for the body parts, end of story.

    Way to start the shit talking too, you're such a hardass.

  • its the body kit from the MK3 Mondeo.....

    how cant you recognize it´?

  • No, I can recognize what it is pretty easily, actually. That's not even close to a Mondeo's stock body kit.

  • so i gotta know does it still have that lil 2 liter 4 cylinder. the supercharger is a nice addition, but not trying to be mean, and put that wicked car down.seeing how that car only has 260 horses and its a sedan, i think my 92 dodge stealth rt twin turbo could shut that that beautiful car down. a stock stealthrt twin turbo has 320 horses, when i put mine on the dyno i only got 411 horses, but mine isnt stock

  • it has the svt 2.5 v6, i know alot about the stealths i was about to get a 94 twin turbo for 3200 but reverse didnt work.

  • oh shit i guess they upgraded the engine lol, but yea be happy you didnt get the stealth. The parts for them are expensive.

  • yea which is why i didnt get it, im lookin at the svt contours now

  • Whats wrong with the fact that its a sedan, it weighs 3100 lbs as compared to the fatass stealths 3800-4000lbs. The stealths are excellent cars but they're overweight little coupes. lol

  • Duplicate it? yah go to autozone and buy a ricey ass body kit stickers and neons! lol

    This piece of shit blows my dick hole up.

  • you can buy body kits at autozone, i never knew that, ive seen all the ricer deuche bags over there all the time wit their fart can neons, probes, civics, etc. and they usually come out wit a bag full of decals.

  • A disgrace to the contour svt.

  • tell me how? cause a majority of the viewers liked the saleen version

  • uuummm this car did make it to the production line. my brothers got #9 of 100 made.

  • let me see a video of the car, because i dont believe you one bit, i think the sources from the contour forums are pretty damn smart when they told me that there is only one saleen svt contour made

  • let me guess... this is your brother's contour sitting in the driveway at 00:21 and 00:29 seconds into this movie (sarcasm)

  • uummm no its not. its in his garage. and his is red. verry nice car! too small though. my brother lives in arizona, ill ask him to make a video if he has time to show u.

  • ok ill like to see a red saleen

  • That's not true. I used to be a Contour enthusiast and THERE'S ONLY ONE SALEEN CONTOUR. I know that there's someone on the contour forum that owns the Saleen right now

  • i know, i believe you, im just telling the guy above me, "allmightyjamestown", that there is only one saleen contour.

    i fully agree with you i was being sarcastic with him

  • cool  cool more video more pictures ciao bye

  • Was this all custom made and now there is a kit available? Or is this person just the first to own the kit?

  • This car was a concept that never made it to the production line but someone offered a saleen dealer 20k a couple of years ago. The aftermarket body kit (shown in video) for the ford mondeo (euro contour) will make a mondeo/(svt) contour look a lot like a saleen concept and if u add the VFiber Stalker wing and paint it black and all the other stuff shown in video your basically going have the saleen (bootlegged).

  • My 96 GL could blow the doors off that

  • wat upgrades did u do to your car, cuz the saleen had the s'charger taken off so its basically a stock svt thats more aero. and has a better suspension

  • update info.

    Contour saleen now has a owner

    is a Contour enthusiast and for info the s/c was removed from saleen

    there are more pics fro this beautiful car on the net. and taked from his owner.

  • oh i didnt know dat there was owner thanks for da info

  • apparently you did because you have pictures of it in his driveway.

  • thanks alot smart ass

  • boing!!!
