Definitely Z-28. What are the mods on the SVT? Those contours stock hit mid to low 15's.

From what I know, The Contour has some kind of underdrive pulleys and maybe a 50 shot, I ain't quite sure, I don't have all the info. The Z-28 is stick shift and so is the Contour

z wins hands down unless the contour is running a lot of juice..

I don't think i'd trust a ford product on a lot of juice though, nor would it last long..

why should he be shot? I've seen modded Contour's dip into the 13's, quick enough to snag a few unsuspecting Fbody's, quit harping on the kid because you don't like him and get a clue...

Same ol', same ol'. Less intimitating coming from a Tempo...oh, I'm sorry, Contour. Who else agrees? The Contour is just the Tempo with a better name. Which is good. I like the cars. I've owned 2. But come on...Tempo? Topaz?
All the same, they are 15 second cars...7 point something to 60. I've heard nothing bad about them. Car is a little heavy for the 4 cylinder. V6 works ok.
Hands down the Camaro wins.
