What do you know? Have you ever driven one? I doubt it.

I have. Mine is a fast little car.

They have the Contour's 2.0-liter 16-valve Zetec. This is also used in the Cougar and the Focus. ZX2 has 130 hp and 4-cylinders. It'll go 0-60 in 7.4 seconds.

An Si cant keep up with a mustang gt so what. A civic HB or CRX cant keep up with zx2 unless its modded, but thats the fun in tuning 4 bangers.

Great performance off the factory line. My 2003 Zx2 ran a 15.5 Quarter last week in Albuquerque, NM. This is great considering the car is only 3 months old and still bone stock right down to the tires, and the altitude being 5500 feet above sea level. My 1992 S10 with a LT1 will barely run a 13 sec. quarter. Next for the Zx2 is a intake, body kit, and exaust. Hopefully this will knock a little off the quarter time.

Hey Loser,

I ate up every Civic and Accord I've ever raced with my 2000 ZX2, including 2 Si's so up yours. If you don't like our cars then stay out of our forum. Everyone has a honda. What we have is unique, different, and capable of being boosted to 300HP, which for a 2500 pound car is fast enough to eat up most anything on the road in our class, including ANY Honda. GO visit www.loser_ricers.com and stay away from us (hint dummy, it's not a real website...)
