drove an svt contour last night...
man i was pretty impressed. for a car with 100k miles on it, that thing went pretty good. clutch was awesome. felt so much better than the a4's clutch. i'm not a huge fan of the high engagement point, but thats just one of the little quirks of the a4. the seats were good. it was pretty quick even though i'm at 7k feet up. but man am i used to having a turbo. the last 3 cars i've owned all had turbos and when i'm home both my parents and sister drive turbo-ed cars. i'm so used to it kicking it. anyway, if i could find a nice clean one, i'd drive one as a daily. and for a ford, the interior was pretty nice. anyway, first time i'd ever been in one, thought i'd share

definitely a fun car to drive
my buddy had one in college... but he beat the **** out of it. By the time his lease was up the bodykit was falling off and the car had developed several very loud squeaks and rattles while driving. Still a great car to drive tho, I just don't know if I could put up with it falling apart on me (maybe he just got a lemon or just really fvcked the car up).
