1995 Ford Probe Reviews, Pricing & Specs

This is my third Probe. My first being an 89 GT Turbo, then a 95 SE, and now a 95 GT. They handle extremely well, braking has never been a problem and acceleration could be better but is definitely not too shabby. The build of these cars is pretty solid. I have heard that they usually have distributor problems but I have never had a problem with them. Repairs made are those that have been due more to age than any defect of the build. They are well balanced and are fairly sought after for tuners and mods. The appearance is sleek and definitely well thought out. This car is 15 years old and can still garner attention. This car is definitely fun to drive, I love taking it out on a mild day and letting the windows down and opening the sunroof and cranking the CD player all the way up and just going for a drive.

A good car in terms of power to weight and drivability. the motor was a 2.5 inline 4 with dohc. The avrage gas economy was great and its cost in matenence was not bad. It was a blast to drive and definatly drew attention. Mine was black with grey interior. The bucket seats were comfortable and the stock radio put out good sound. The only issue i had was the weak transmission that most are known for, a few months after purchase it needed a new transmission and would have cost me more than the car was actualy worth to fix. i have to say i miss this car.Dec 07, 2009

Typical performance from a jap engined car needs tobe at high RPM to get the most out of it. Build quality seems good, but due to its age it will go wrong and when it does can be expensive. Generally cheap to to run, especially if ur more economical with the accelerator pedal than I am. Great fun to drive either around town or through country lanes, holds well due to its wide tyres, sports suspension and low centre of gravity.Apr 04, 2009

Performance- With it's fine 24-valve Mazda K-series V6 and lightweight Mazda GE body, the Probe has okay acceleration. Where it really shines, though, is in handling. I cannot even describe how well the thing handles. Build quality- You will hear about a lot of people having problems with the car. If the car was well cared for, and if you have the 5-speed manual transmission, then it will easily give you 250,000 miles of loyal service. Appearance- I think it's gorgeous. I love every smooth, flowing curve on the whole car. However, it is certainly a "like it or hate it" sort of design. Cost of ownership- A well-kept Probe GT can get upwards of 30 miles to the gallon. Enjoy. However, replacement parts are not cheap. Order them through Mazda, or look in junkyards, if you're comfortable with that. Fun factor- Never mind if the car's fun to drive. It's fun just to sit in. Taking corners at ridiculous speeds is exhilarating. Go buy one now.Jul 14, 2008

Of course this was going to be the replacement for the Mustang but as we know the Mustang will always be a pony car and not a ricer.lol The car I owned was running 193-97 with some tail light and front bumper changes. You had a choice of either the 2.0L 4 Cylinder engine in the SE or the 2.5L V-6 in the GT. They both had a choice of either a 4 speed auto or a five speed manual trans.when you first get in this car it almost wraps around your body like a sheet which makes you feel at home no matter what you are doing with the car. You could be spinning them in second gear or getting it sideways by pulling the e-brake, the car remains composed with little body roll. I would def rec. getting new tires right off the bat and it will make all the differance in the car and how fun it is and can be! This car is a hatchback and with that comes a truck that seems to match even the very Lincoln Towncar it self in size and depth. The seats fold down 60/40 making it even more handi-capable than it was before. This car came standard with ABS 5 speed trans,AC,cassette AM/FM stereo.flip up head lights,alloy wheels, power windows and locks, and on the GT's there were cut aways for sun-roofs if you ever wanted to install them your self or have them installed.The 2.0L 0-60-8.7 / The 2.5L 0-60-7.3Mar 26, 2008
