Re: saleen contour for sale by saleen

$20k? Are you ****ing nuts? You could pick up a used CSVT for maybe $5-$6k, dump the other $14k in to the car and then have a car that both looks and performs better then that ugly pile. $20k, that sounds like a bad frickin joke!

Re: saleen contour for sale by saleen

With only 4k miles on it, though, Ryan? I agree with the rest, but a CSVT with only 4k miles on it won't likely be had for $5-$6k.

Sidenote, if you know of one, I'd appreciate the heads up.

I don't mind that car, except for the black effects on the rear, the wing, and the sticker. *shrugs*

Re: saleen contour for sale by saleen

Pfft, you can put in a 3L and new tranny and completely replace the suspension and any other suspect parts on a used CSVT. For less than 20k total.

The body kit doesn't really do anything for me, the whole faux-widebody look is just BAD on the Contour. And I wanna know why there's a "Supercharged" badge on the trunk but no mention of a supercharger in the description.
