Probe LX

1991 Ford Probe LX 2dr Hatchback
The V6 LX 1991 was a good find. The
depreciation of the value made it more
worthwhile to look at. I don't think you
can get a car at this price and the kind
of performance it still offers. 18/20
MPG in city driving is quite economical.
I had only some heating problem due to
some radiator damage. Can't blame Ford
for anything. Keep in mind though, the
Automatic might not last … beyond 130K.
Factor in that cost and you are set for
a 200 K V6 car that still looks great.

1991 Ford Probe LX 2dr Hatchback
I am the original owner. I have a V6 Automatic that just turned 205,000 miles. Transmission & engine never taken a part. Not even a valve cover gasket!! This car has never stranded me, still starts better than my 2005 Honda Accord! Fun to drive with great visability.

1992 Ford Probe LX 3.0L V6 "POWER"
JBLV6, 06/14/2002
1992 Ford Probe LX 2dr Hatchback
i've have my car for 4.5 years now it
hasn't had any problems and it's 10
years old... thats true performance. I
have an APC dual 4" muffler on it and
boy does it sound nice with that thoaty
V6. The 3.0L is way more power than the
car needs which makes it very fun to
drive. You can smoke anyone who tries.
If you want a fast reliable car i
recommend a 1992 Ford Probe LX … 3.0L
V6... theres a reason this engine was
only in the car for 3 years!

Best Car I Ever Owned
SPGT, 06/12/2002
1991 Ford Probe GT Turbo 2dr Hatchback
I've owned several cars over the years
and no other car has been in the same
league as my Probe. 100%
reliability... never a problem. I
wouldn't change a thing on it (except
for the addition of a cupholder). Very
fast and handles like a true sports
car. I would recommend it to anyone.
It's a shame they don't make them
anymore.
