1991 Ford Probe GL 2.2L 4 cylinder
Summary:
A wonderful car for the money that delivers with performance, style, and comfort!
Faults:
My driver's side headlight stopped working, except for when my brights were on. This was very inexpensive and very easy to replace on my own. Nothing serious at all has gone wrong with it, however.
General Comments:
I've been very pleased with this car ever since I purchased it. It's been reliable, comfortable, and extremely fun!
The car seems completely solid and well made. It handles magnificently and can zip in and out of traffic with ease. My probe has some serious pep to it!
The interior is very comfortable, and ergonomically designed. All of the controls are perfectly place, and are reached very easily. The front seats are quite comfortable, but could use a little more side support for those high speed corners. The rear seats are comfortable as well, but leg room becomes an issue. Getting in and out of the vehicle isn't the easiest task in the world if you're a bigger person, but I do just fine.
My Probe is an absolute blast to drive! It has good acceleration and cornering capabilities. Staying centered in the lane can become a problem because of the steering, so just pay attention. Also, performance lags to the point where it's definitely noticeable when you have all of the other seats filled with bigger people. Storage capabilities are fantastic! Not that you'd actually need to fit a set of drag racing slicks in the hatch, but boy could you!
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I was just wondering where in the world you found a 1991 Probe GT with a 2.8L 6cyl. First of all, the 1991 GT's came with a 2.2L 4cyl. turbo, and second of all, the 1991 LX's are the only model that was available in that year with a 6cyl, and that was a 3.0L. Hopefully you can understand my curiosity.
