I personally like that Gen cougar, in particular the "c2" 01-02 facelift. A red or zinc yelow xr7. build quality is far better than the pgt..you can say what you want about the trans or motor but I've had many svt contours and regular contours and never had a single problem with the driverrain, that includes a modded 3l swap with over 200 fwhp/tq designed for a 130hp zetec.

I understand why they would do it with the shift to making a world car so if you can't sell them someplace then why make them. What is the problem with the headlights in relation to pedestrians though?

I thought it was the whole fiasco of "to make it safer when you run over pedestrians" thing. As much better as the cougar is build wise the drivetrain sucks because there's yet to be a cougar in the 11s if I believe.Current: Green Envy Fiesta ST e85 Tuned
