I miss my Probe. It was an excellent car. I got it when I was about 17 years old. It ran well. The only thing that needed to be replaced was a belt.
I loved it!

Summary:
I wish I still had mine
Faults:
When I bought the car it had some rust above the back tires.
I also noticed when I was changing a tire that there was A LOT of rust on the undercarriage, just painted over. This made it difficult to change the tire.
Also the headlights wouldn't go down.
At about 190K my radiator got a big leak and I had to fill with anti-freeze every morning until I got it fixed.
Other than that, I loved it.
General Comments:
I would buy another one in a heartbeat.
It ran smooth and was decently reliable.
It didn't get very good gas mileage but it was worth the cost.
The interior was very comfortable in front, but cramped in back.
It was the perfect first car and it was affordable, yet good-looking.
I loved it.

Summary:
Ford should build another
Faults:
My only problem with the car is the system scanner. it keeps telling me that I have stop/tail lamps out. I have checked them, and they are not burned out. The owner's manual says nothing about resetting that scanner in my configuration.
General Comments:
The 3.0 v6 has plenty of power and some to spare. Getting onto the freeway is no big deal at all. I received the car from my cousin who lives in Seattle WA, and I drove it back home to Spokane WA. The alignment was perfect, the acceleration was quick and responsive. The digital dash made it really easy to know just how illegally fast I was going. I just wish there wasn't that stupid speed alarm on it once you hit 85. I haven't had any trouble with it except for that dumb system scanner that on my car seems to malfunction.

Summary:
Well made sporty car that didn't get the attention it deserved
Faults:
Paint turned to a pastel in most places and clear coat is peeling in others.
Horn doesn't work, I'ld fix it if I could figure out where they stuck it.
Speakers dry rot.
General Comments:
The pick up on this car is awesome unfortunately it doesn't have the top speed to match kinda needs one more gear. Which would also increase the good gas mileage, I currently get around 28 - 30 mpg
I'ld like to see more after market parts, but probably won't.
And even with all that mileage on the car it still sounds solid, ie. no extra noises every time you hit a bump.

The horn is on the left hand side of the car behind the front air dam and should be accessible by removing the plastic panels at the front of the engine bay.
If you are lucky then you should just need to reconnect the connector to make the horn work again.
Yeah I have that paint problem to seems pretty common. but it is a fun car to drive hopfully it don't fall abart like other cars you guys have had. were is the fuel relay?
