I always like the idea of the Contour when it was new. Compact sedan + V6 + stick was always right up my alley.

That Mystique is quite possibly one of a kind.

Except for the Mary Kay paint job...cool!  Didn't they make a sporty(er) version of the Contour - that was sorta a mini SHO at the time?  Or am I just misremembering that it was thought of as a mini SHO?  That's probably a $4500 car if the AC works and the tires are new...more than a facking AWD Fusion anyway.  :-\ ::) ;D  :rofl2: 
Just needs a wrap or a whole new $400 Maaco paint job.

It was called the Contour SVT, they made it for a few years.  Decent little sporty sedan, but not as special as the original Taurus SHO with the yamaha engine.

Good heavens. 30k for that? Wow! I watched a Solstice GXP stall out at a $6100 bid at auction last week, which is 10x more desirable than a G6. He has a 5-6k car on a good day.

You could get the base V6 Cayenne with a manual in both the first and second generations. The only V8 manual Cayennes were the first gen GTS and the Cayenne S Transsyberia.

They're on crack, though.  $35k for an 11 year old Cayenne with close to 200 000k kms.

One with like 30k on it went for $90k recently. They're definitely desirable.
