A 3.0L what? How about this -- it had a 3 liter:

You could get home from the lake quick enough that the fish would be as fresh as when you pulled them out of the water.

More on topic, what woman tells her man that she wants him to buy a 3 liter Contour? Just a damned odd request. Hey, plenty of people love the Contour SVT, including my girl, but no one's ever knocked on my door to get me to mod it. I figure if you want enough thrust to cinch your beer gut under hard throttle, get a Fox Mustang or Capri, or even a supercharged MN-12 car, perhaps a 5-speed Taurus SHO.

Then again, there's always this Ferrari, Magnum. :cool:

Well, I said I wanted to get one and her reply "was can you sell your car....and if so for how much. "

I figure I can hopefully sell mine for around $2600 then I can take out a small $3-4K loan for a nice 3.0L from Reebs. Haven't heard from him for a bit though. :confused:

Gotcha. How about a nice 1978 Riv for $500?
 
Jason, see the Ad of the Day thread for a link to an Ebay auction that will please your wife greatly. All other northerners are welcome, of course. I'm sure you'll not be able to contain your excitement.

Hope things go smooth. And remember, when you pick up your tux...make sure it is the right one and all that good crap before you leave the store.
