Bought a new car!

Chris, you read my mind about what I'd love to do with the Probe, but its problems are just too much. It doesn't even pull as hard as it should. My cousin has a Mazda MX-6 with the same engine as my Probe. He pulled a few cars and it definitely wasn't because he's a better driver. His was an auto and mine was a 5 Speed.

I just picked up my evo two days ago. I have my first track day next thursday. Overall, I'm very impressed. If the subie is anything like the evo it should be a fun car.

Those TRs are fun as hell, I took one out and was giggleing like a schoolgirl 1 minute into the test drive. They definitely do need some spings though, they ride high.

Check this out Probe lovers. I got a 93 white Probe Gt with 25,000 original miles and looks as new as my "S"! 5 speed with aftermarket sunroof and special ordered so I could avoid the power windows which were a problem on that model.
I was thinking of taking it to some car shows to see what kind of interest it generates .
I hear you on the Subie! I gots my heart set on an STI myself!

The first new car I bought on my own was the 93 Probe GT, I ordered the car with no power options but a sunroof in late 92 after reading a review in Automobile magazine. I loved that car and drove it a little over a year before trading it in on my first Honda, 95 Civic Ex coupe.
That probe had a wonderful motor and great suspension geometry on the front that had very little torque steer, it was a really revolutionary car back in 92 when it came out. I wanted to buy the Mazda version of it just because it wasn't the ford but I actually thought the Probe was a better looking car.
That was the first car that actually got attention, I was just starting to go out to bars and clubs and being 20 when I bought it new and was one of the first people in the state to get the GT I got allot of tail in that car, memories.
