Introduction
Welcome to the Ford Special
Vehicle Team family, and thank you
for purchasing an SVT Contour. We
trust that you will enjoy many
years of safe and pleasurable
driving in your new SVT Contour.
SVT strives for balance between
powertrain and chassis, cornering
prowess and long-distance comfort,
always working to build cars in
which no one system overwhelms
or overshadows any other. In the
SVT Contour, that philosophy is
carried forward by enhancing the
character and performance of the
already exceptional Ford Duratec
twin-cam V6 engine as well as
significant interior, exterior and
chassis refinements.
This supplement compliments your
Contour Owners Guide and
provides information specific to the
SVT Contour. By referring to the
pages listed in this supplement,
you can identify those features,
recommendations and
specifications unique to your new
SVT Contour.
If you have any questions or
concerns, please call us at the
Ford Special Vehicle Team hotline
from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. EST at
1800FORD-SVT
(18003673788).
