how much did you get your ford probe for?? what kind engines does this car have what can you put in it??? do these cars last a long time???

I bought my 2nd gen Probe GT brand new back in 93 for $16,000. It's got 139,000 miles and still runs strong.
A good used one shouldn't cost more that $5,000 depending on age, mods and model.
If you take care of it, it can last a long time. There are some people with over 200,000 miles on theirs and they still race them.

Mods are not as readly available has Honda mods, but there are a few.
Over on ProbeTalk.com they have alot of do it yourself mods and vendors that specialize in Probes.

All in all, I love my Probe GT and when the engine goes, I will get one of the Japanese V6's that are a direct swap and start with 200hp, before mods.

Good luck in your search,

Greg

ive been told that the gts only last about 150000 miles and mine blew up at 153000 miles if that helps
