Ford Contour

The Ford Contour, as well as its sister the Mercury Mystique, is a mid-size sedan that was based on the first-generation globally marketed Ford Mondeo. The Contour and Mystique replaced the Ford Tempo and Mercury Topaz in the U.S., and were based on Ford's mid-sized CDW27 platform. Both the Contour and Mystique were praised for its handling and ride quality, and were even dubbed "A fun four-door sedan that offered European moves at American prices" in an Edmunds review.[1]
