It was a nice night and i was driving back from a friends house, i look in the rear view mirror and see a white cougar with xenons cut a guy off to get next to me.. next thing i know this guy is next me revin up and down mind you i wasn't in the mood for this crap, from what i can tell he had a really really nasty sounding exhuast man that thing was really annoying besides that i don't think there was anything in the engine.. so we pull up at a traffic light and he keep reving rolling back and forth i got piss off i said screw it i put my car in to manual mode and gear 1 better launches for me... light turn green and before he even had a chance i was gone i put about 6 car lenghts on him right away...i figure i was some little kid with not much experience.. i blew pass him and look in my rear view to be amazed that the car lengths i had on him.... that was an interesting race. I never new my car could run like that man i was quick...

Nice kill. My wife used to have a 99 Cougar V6, 5 spd. Piece of junk car that was in the shop 11 times in the 15 mos we owned it, but anyhow... it was "quick".

It has the 2.5 165 hp engine it and is FWD. The Cougar S had the Contour SVT's 200 hp version of the 2.5. Anyhow, I raced a few VR6 Jettas in it on occasion, and surprised one guy in a 96 Mustang GT automatic. Fun little car to drive when it wasn't falling apart...
