Edmunds' Expert Review
by the Edmunds Experts
What’s new
A driver airbag becomes standard on the restyled Probe. The Probe's wheelbase stretches four inches and its curb weight jumps 100 pounds. The slow-selling LX model is dropped. Four-cylinder engines in the base model are good for 115 horsepower; GT models get a twin-cam 2.5-liter V6 engine that makes 164. Antilock brakes become optional for all Probes.

1993 Ford Probe GT 2dr Hatchback
I bought the car with 12,000 miles on the odometer, and have been driving it for the last 11 years. The handling is tremendous; every freeway on ramp is a blast. The V6 winds out nicely, and the car still looks contemporary today. The seats are very comfortable. At 147,000 miles, it still has the original clutch, and the engine feels tight. Problem areas: the distributor quit at 50k … miles; the rear brake calipers have been replaced a couple of times due to locking; the paint is fading despite regular wax jobs; the hatch has rattled since day 1; the valve cover gaskets leak; and the wind whistles around the passenger door seal.
Love my Probe

1993 Ford Probe GT 2dr Hatchback
Great car, reliable, slick looking. I like to call it my "SUV in disguise" because with the back seats down and the trunk cover removed, I can fit a nine-foot surfboard, 2 six foot surfboards, and a mountain bike all inside! And, it gets great gas mileage (30+ highway) so it's not too much of a crunch at the pump with gas prices hitting $4.00/gallon. It handles the road wonderfully and … has a great turning radius.
Never EVER Again

1993 Ford Probe GT 2dr Hatchback
Never again will I buy a probe. In
just a year of owning this car, I've
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 don't make this cars anymore!!

1993 Ford Probe GT 2dr Hatchback
This car is strait up awsome. the only
proble i've noticed is it needs a
little more low end torqe. But I've put
custom exhaust, intake, and fuel system
so my GT is absolutly untouchable on
the street I've got 150,000 miles, and
the cars got at least 150K togo. I
would recommend the Ford Probe GT to
anyone (GREAT CAR).
