  1995 Ford Probe - 1995 Ford Probe
  By GeorgeH - June 29 - 2:00 am

  The 1995 Ford Probe is a very reliable vehicle. Other than the regular maintainence, weve had to invest very little additional money to keep it running well. The only problem with the vehicle is that it seems to wear through tires quicker than most other cars.

  Best Car Fords Made! - 1993 Ford Probe
  By RobertW_47 - June 24 - 2:00 am

  I do not understand when I hear people say bad things about the Probe. I have had my 93 Probe GT for ten years and it has been the most amazing car. I have had no major mechanical issues and have only had to spend money on typical maintenance issues. This car is RELIABLE! I have had lots of fun upgrading intake/exhaust and taking her out on the open road. This is a great car and if you can get your hands on one that has been taken care of, buy it! I have often thought that I will never sell my Probe. It is one of the best cars on the road and its styling is timeless.

  94 Probe GT - 1994 Ford Probe
  By SVC - June 17 - 2:00 am

  106,000 mainly trouble free miles. Still on the orginal clutch. Usual Probe maintenance issues - Oxygen sensors, ABS sensors, wiring harness, water pump, factory CD. Expensive to repair ($500 for an ABS wheel sensor?). Mazda mechanicals make this a reliable car that has been fun to drive over the past eight years.

  A great car. - 1996 Ford Probe
  By JS2Music - June 10 - 2:00 am

  I bought my GT four years ago, and now must part strictly because of cargo space. Its a very peppy car with great handling and an amazing stereo system. My car has a factory sub which adds really nice low end. The Factory CD played is/was terrible, it eventually had to be put out to pasture. Beyond normal maintance, my water pump cracked (a pricey fix-up) And both CV joint cases had to be replaced (possibly my fault). Watch the alignment if not youll go through tires pretty quickly. This was certainly my favorite car so far.

  Never EVER Again - 1993 Ford Probe
  By Unsatisfied Owner - June 10 - 2:00 am

  Never again will I buy a probe. In just a year of owning this car, Ive had to replace both CV joints (one more than once), replace the whole radiator, replace the distribitor, replaced the front brake pads a few times, the rotors once, repair on the head gaskets, and replace the timing belt. Right now, the transmission is almost completely gone and I have a blown water hose. When it rains, it pours with this vehicle. Price for repair is outrageous. Thank goodness they dont make this cars anymore!!

  Worst Car ever - 1993 Ford Probe
  By One Rolln - May 30 - 2:00 am

  This was a really fun car to drive when it worked. The expen$$$$ive repair costs and the dual build of the cars (ford,Mazda)may be the problem. Engine repairs and normal fixs are outrageous. Definatly do not recommend!

  Ford Probe GT - 1990 Ford Probe
  By HollyWood - May 28 - 2:00 am

  Ive had this car for 10 years and never have been stranded or needed to make repairs on the road. Currently, I use it for a commuting and with some tweaking and care Im able to get 34 mpg.

  We have 2 - 1997 Ford Probe
  By Smokeman - May 24 - 2:00 am

  The style is great. W/the seats down, you can fit a full size bed in the car. It looks sporty, so you feel proud to drive it. Only problem is the check engine light comes on after 40K miles. After having it checked out and finding nothing is wrong, we have to disconnect the battery to reset the lamp.

  I LOVED this car - 1994 Ford Probe
  By nunyerbiz - May 21 - 2:00 am

  Recently retired my 94 Probe GT. I bought it in spring of 95 and put over 100,000 miles on it in 8 years. Almost scary acceleration, when properly tuned (with the 5 speed manual). Insane handling abilities. Ive only had a few major repairs, but they were all VERY expensive. After 8 years, the amount of parts that needed replacement simply made it impractical to keep driving. I needed a new clutch (115000+ miles on the original isnt shabby tho), new drive axle, new brakes, new moonroof, etc.

  BEST CAR EVER OWNED (unlike grand prix) - 1993 Ford Probe
  By bosanac - May 15 - 2:00 am

  I own a 93gt and it had a little over 100k on it. It has had its regular oil change and all, but besides that I havent invested a dime into it. I used to own a 2000 Grand prix gt in silver with horrible paint job. Down here its quite disturbing to have to see your cars paint chip off. I guess quality matters. Probes interior and the 5 speed tranny are a tremendous change and a upgrade from lame 200hp in a 3.8 GM engine. One thing I think Ford/Mazda should have improved was the fact that it doesnt provide you with cheap aftermarket(after warranty) parts. But, sofar I havent had to use my warranty.
