Best Bargain Sports Car From the 90's
It's fast, fun and even has flip-up head lights. I bought this car for just over $2000 and it has over 275,000 kms on it. But the car is still a looker and runs great. The styling has not aged and still appears quite modern. The flip-up headlights are great fun and have never broke down on me. Considering the high kilometers on the vehicle, I have had very little problems with rust. The Probe also is front wheel drive. This may not be very sporty but it makes the car quite manageable in the winter. The hatchback trunk and fold down back seats make it decently practical for a sports car. I have used it for everything, from transporting lumber (that a friends SUV couldn't handle) to moving into a new house. Now for the engine. The 2.0L Mazda V6 is great. It loves to be revved up past 4,000 rpm and has plenty of pull. The GT model also has upgraded suspension. This makes for a slightly stiff ride but it makes the Probe extremely fun on an empty, windy road. But watch out, the fuel economy is significantly lowered if it's driven aggressively. Although, if driven conservatively with the standard transmission, this car can be decent at the pumps. As for reliability, my Probe has rarely let me down. Even for its age and high mileage it is decently reliable and has never needed any large repairs. The Ford Probe GT is a great sports car for the price.
