1993 Ford Probe GT 2.5L V6 from North America
Summary:
Very fast, road huggin demon
Faults:
My motor mounts cracked at 125,000 miles.
Door panel glue started to lose hold.
Bent drive shaft at 125,000.
General Comments:
This car is extremely quick and can out handle most sports cars. I have raced N/A Stealths and beat them in road and 1/4 mile tracks. 15.6 second BONE STOCK! Cockpit like feel. Shifts are very easy to go into. Throw also really short for stock.
Backseat needs more space. View out of rear view mirror is limited.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

You must live "up North", where they slather salt on the roads. I live in Alabama, N Carolina before that, and I've only had 1 minor repair done on my exhaust system, in almost 220,000 miles. And yes, I love the way it starts (original starter!), one small twist of the key, and that baby is purring. A little warmup, and she's flying (and holding the road like it's a part of the pavement). Unlike you, I will never give up my Probe GT. Maybe that's what you need, a GT with a 5-speed stick! You don't need less miles, you need more car. Of course, any Probe you buy these days is going to be a "project car", ongoing project actually-but worth it!
