1993 Ford Probe Base review from North America

"Awesome deal, great little car"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The only thing that has gone wrong is a piece of my exhaust rusted out, which was easily repaired under $10 with do-it-yourself job.

Door panels broke off, simply screwed them back in.

Spoiler had rusted out when I bought it, a cpl hours and some paint to fix.

Radiator has a small leak, common in factory cars, my Shadow had the same thing.

General comments?

The minute I saw this car I fell in love with it, and once I got in the drivers seat it was mine. I paid $1000 for it and it was worth every penny.

It came with cruise control, rear windshield wiper, ATX, and the color was electric metallic red.

I used it as a daily driver, driving it over 100 miles some days. The only thing I had to check was the engine coolant. Rarely had to put any in though. An oil change every 7500 miles and some fuel injector cleaner will keep it running tops!

It's a very speedy car, with good take off. If you're looking for a cheaper car to make into a performance car, go with a 4 cylinder probe. It might take a little more work finding performance parts for it, but it has the ability to go faster than the GTs.

If something ever did happen to this I would definitely look for another.
