The second generation Ford Probe is gorgeous.

[@drplando14]

In college back in 99 I bought a 96 ford probe w manual transmission (4c). Had it until 2014 and put 250k miles and never had any issues, just maintenance. Loved it

[@jwc3104]

2nd gen probe in White and blue, looks totally rad, it still looks good in 2024.

[@B9M3]

I bought a new Probe GT 5-speed in 94 and it was my daily driver for 16 years. I didnt care for Gen 1, but Gen 2 was strikingly beautiful in GT trim. I wouldn't call it bullet proof but over all it was reliable. I don't get all the snickering over the name. Ford had a series of experimental and concept cars in the 80s and 90s called Probes. They were all very cool in their own way. Some of them even looked like futuristic space probes. So when it became clear that it wouldn't be called Mustang, Ford just applied the nomenclature of the concept and experimental cars. I always liked the name -- sounds very futuristic and high tech..

[@TonysFordsandMustangs]

Thanks for sharing your experience with the car. I understand probe was the name of a concept car in the in the early 80's it also is a double entendre. When given a choice of all the possible names a car can be given one should not use the double entendre regardless of how juvenile the other interpretation may be. If it's only 10% of potential buyers that will think along those lines that's way too many.

[@putzmeisterdeluxe1204]

I live in sweden and my girlfriend has a 95 Probe gt with the 5-speed manual, she bought it in 2011 and only drives it during the summer. It's her first car. Everything works, no rust and it handles great. 🙂

[@TonysFordsandMustangs]

Thanks for sharing! I don't think I will hear many complaints about these cars.

[@komradkolonel]

I didn't write a letter but I was one of those that thought a FWD Mustang with a turbo four was an abomination. The bosses at Ford were wise to listen up and not make the Probe the new Mustang. Ford did need the Probe not only because they had invested so much money into it but also because they really didn't have a car to compete with the Toyota Celica, Dodge Daytona, or Mitsubishi Eclipse from that time. The Probe fit into that class perfectly.

[@pgtmr2713]

All they had to do was make it RWD and it would be hanging with 240s. Well, beating them. They could've gone with Maverick for the name, OR thrown darts at letters blindfolded to come up with a better name. I like the 2nd gen exclusively, more refined, better looking, more options, paint colors were wild. They put a lot into it, both Ford and Mazda.

[@TonysFordsandMustangs]

I don't think it was bad as it was. I think the launch (awful) and the fact that the market for sports cars was shrinking is what did it in. SUV's were becoming popular with younger buyers.

[@georgeburns7251]

Probe was actually a name used on Fords race car at that time.

[@bikingD]

Probe, MX6 and 240 all hung together. They were sporty woman's cars when new. My ex had a 240 new and was a nice car. Guys if they wanted a performance Japanese sporty cars at the time bought Talon's and Eclipse's.

[@aaronbrandes7456]

My grandmother worked for Ford and bought the first gen Probe GT and me being a teenager at the time was blown away by its performance!

[@DanTheMailman330]

I didn't realize they were comparable to an automatic 5.0 mustang in the quarter mile!

My oldest sister bought a Probe GT. It was fun and fast and very reliable. She drove it for 12 years.

[@dudefromtx1404]

I had the 1989 Ford Probe GT and really liked it, and had no mechanical issues to about 60,000 miles until some lady on medications pulled out in front of me and totalled it.

[@damyanpopov1341]

I have owned a 94 Probe GT for over 3 years. Fixed a lot of things on it and it is now looking great inside, outside and under the hood. Great car and I love it! Great handling car with enough power to have fun when you really get on it. I replaced the entire exhaust system on it and it tends to turn heads wherever I go. Magnaflow for the win :) I have been approached more than once at the gas station with people asking what the car is or commenting how they haven't seen a Probe in ages! Currently restoring a 95 Probe GT with my father we picked up a few months ago. It wasn't running when we got it, but it is now! Ford Probe Facebook groups are a great community and resource. We are always helping each other out and discussing Probe stuff!

[@TonysFordsandMustangs]

Thank you for sharing! I have to admit that I am impressed with the positive comments regarding Probe and the community of owners. Very few negative comments regarding the car and plenty support those they own them. Glad to hear all of this!

[@seanfrip9036]

I own a 1993 Probe GT it was a awesome car. Not a straight line 1/4 mile car but It was a good handling car and V6 made wonderful noise😅. I wish Ford had all the Mustang E the Probe.

[@seanfrip9036]

Wish Ford had call the mustang E the probe

[@brilliant59]

Ever notice when Ford and Mazda get together the cars are good? My daughter bought a new 2013 Mazda Cx5 and has never had any problems to this day. The car still looks new. Had many Mazdas over the years, great cars. Would love to have a CX90, but I will wait until the financial crash and cars come down.

[@marquisbrunson]

I had a 94 ford probe. I loved it.

[@Aggiedave93]

I bought a black ‘93 Probe GT 5-sp right out of college, in between my ‘85 Mustang GT and ‘94 Cobra. That car was absoluteiy beautiful back in the day and was a great, smooth, modern ride and drive. That car and its MX-6 twin were ahead of their time.

[@2H2521]

Yet again, excellent information & history on another Ford vehicle! This channel is nothing of absolute super. The second generation Probe is one of the coolest & most futuristic looking cars of the 90’s, it was so ahead of its time with its styling. I think it’s one of the best looking cars Ford ever had. Cool SVO in the background too.

[@TonysFordsandMustangs]

Thank you for the kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@terrylessmann2274]

Had a red 89 GT, a teal 93 GT, and a dark green 97 GT, all bought new, all great cars. The 89 would get 35mpg on the interstate. The 97 was the best looking w/ chrome wheels and beige int. Unfortunately it was saddled with an auto trans. Probes were great cars for the time.

[@AntonisHL]

Although never had a Ford Probe, I still think that the second generation Probe GT in red is very beautiful.

[@doggerracing5243]

Thanks for another interesting model review. I bought a Probe GT in 93. I really enjoyed that car. Silky smooth engine with a refined independent suspension, good brakes and an excellent 5 speed transmission all wrapped in a body shape that was easy on the eyes. It had some shortcomings, but it was a fun and reliable daily driver.

[@TonysFordsandMustangs]

Thanks for sharing and I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@Reaching2Sky]

I'm a proud owner of a 1994 Probe GT. Getting spare parts here at México City is an authentic pain but it pays off when people stares at your car and... It's even better when you love your car that much that you have to turn your head at it when you park it.

[@TonysFordsandMustangs]

[@autochatter]

Awesome vid! Funny how the 94 Mustang, costing about the same as a Probe that year, is likely what killed it....Considering the Probe was to be the next Mustang in the first place

[@bobuncle8704]

Seen them, never been in one. Anyone opi knew to have one was pleased with it. I’ve always been a Mustang or F series guy.

[@MrSloika]

Owned an '89 LX. Not much power but it had all the options....flip up sunroof, power everything, digital dash. I replaced the original struts with Tokico blues and it handled surprisingly well and got over 30mpg on the highway.

[@meyo1860]

I loved when my parents took the kids down to Toronto Harbourfront where we would come across random Ford cars on display along the shore line. I drooled over the Merkur cars, but that weekend we came across the ‘89 Probe GT display, my mind almost blew apart!! Ford was on 🔥

[@katieandkevinsears7724]

Thank you for mentioning the 3rd gen Probe becoming the Cougar. I own a 2002 with 47,000 miles on it. Just 4 cylinders and a 5 speed manual getting 37mpg 22 years after it rolled off the line.

[@TonysFordsandMustangs]

My girlfriend had a Probe GT 5 spd in 89. It was ok but no Mustang GT. My friend's 89 Shelby Daytona used to absolutely smoke her Probe. Boy do I remember all the talk about this replacing the Mustang. Mustang guys gals were pissed.

[@wesd2845]

Great video Tony! A friend of mine purchased a new early model Probe and it was definitely an improvement over the Escort I was driving at the time. The Probe wasn't known for its speed but it did drive and handle very well and the interior was definitely an upgrade over the Escort.

[@bomguy999999]

I had a 89 base model. Bought it used in 91. Good enough car. No issues in 5 or so years. Although that torque steer was real if you floored it and werent expecting it.

[@redalfa22]

A 94 Probe GT was my first new car. While lacking the V8 charisma of my prior 79 Z28 and 82 Mustang GT, it more than made up for it with higher build quality and overall sophistication. The 2.5L V6 was pure joy with excellent handling as well. I would love to own another one!

[@TonysFordsandMustangs]

In 95 i had 2 SVOs my wife wanted a ProbeGT. We had it for years. Turn out to be a good car with the only issues the crank sensor connector of poor quality that would an occasional no start and oil leaks in the plug holes. I remember changing the timing belt on it...that was fun !!!

[@trippm4036]

Thanks for including one brief photo of the beautiful MX-6. If the MX-6 was Cinderella, the Probe was the ugly stepsister. I think the drop in sales of the Probe came mainly from the enthusiasm and practicality of the Taurus.

I remember when that car came out. A friend of mine his dad bought one. Remember ridding in it sometimes. Definitely different.

[@asideofbeans5803]

I have a 1993 GT and it hadn’t run in almost 20 years when I bought it. All it needed was a new battery and it fired right up and has had very few issues since. The community for this car is by far the most enjoyable car community I’ve ever seen.

Purchased new a 1st generation 1989 and loved it! Blue with blue. Drove until just under 300k, changed the alternator once, ford mechanic said to use a Mazda 626, 1/3 the cost and lasted from 100k and was in the car when I traded it. Simple maintenance provided a long lasting car… Still with I owned it!

[@nickn815]

I really liked the second gen styling especially in the GT trim, unfortunately I wasn’t ready to buy a new car until 2000 and I got the ZX2 which had some cues from the Probe

[@billnorris3305]

Buddy had a 1995 GT. Fun car. Pretty reliable. Had issues with the parking brake. I remember him parking it on a slight incline and watching it roll into the street. One other time we got out of the car and heard this weird noise coming from the back. We got out to look just in time to catch the passenger rear glass that somehow fell out.

Had a 1990 Ford Probe GL and absolutely loved it! I know it was the base model but being 20 years old at the time I thought it was so cool.Had it for 4 years and other than normal maintenance no problems with mine. Btw I knew it was a Mazda! Lol

[@The_Night_Driver]

My sister had a late 90s probe, she never changed the the oil even once.she would rarely even top up the oil. She would drive it weeks at a time with the oil so low it would not even show on the dipstick. Same goes for coolant and steering fluid. That car ran for years like that and was 100% reliable until she traded it in for a new car.

[@TonysFordsandMustangs]

That is impressive. I feel bad for the cars in her future.

[@thebionicbassplayer]

Alot of people treat their cars like your sister, but then complain that the model is garbage when it prematurely breaks down. That shows the Probe was a reliable vehicle.

[@bradbradley353]

Friend of mine bought an original Gt. Beautiful car. He however, thought because of the road and track article it would easily handle my new 90lx notch…it didn’t…suffice to say I think my 2.73 geared notch hurt his feelings. Still it was a very nice car and deserved to be marketed much better…

[@mmahtnart8986]

I owned a 94' GT 6 cylinder manual. I liked it. It was ok.

[@Johnnyk999]

I owned the Probe twin, actually a 1988 Mazda 626 GT hatchback. Bought used in '92, with about 60k miles on it. Cons: A/C was leaky; trans axle boots would split every 2 - 3 yrs; motorized passive restraint that eventually failed, so used the separate lap belt; frameless windows with tracking clips that eventually rusted off. Pros: 2.2L intercooled turbo loved to rev, tight R&P steering, 5 spd manual, never failed to start; 3-grade adjustable suspension; easy to maintain. Had 240k on it after 20 yrs, never had to replace the (hydraulic) clutch, thanks to the low gearing of 1st gear. With a light weight body, the hatchback was very utilitarian, with flat-folding rear seats. It was a delight to drive, and performed much better than some friends' sports cars I drove back in the day. Someone once posted a YT video of driving one at 140 mph. Interior was head and shoulders above it's Probe twin. Really hated to part with it after 20 yrs.

[@bradwhite4827]

Whoever said if it was rear wheel drive and would be a perfect car to compare to the 240s was absolutely correct! That’s all they needed to do! But keep the mustang also!

[@Hobotraveler82]

Love the looks of the second gen. Maverick would have been better than Probe. 😊

[@TonysFordsandMustangs]

Totally agree

[@maxymax3425]

I drove one for about a month from a company job transfer back in the mid 90's. I was presently surprised how smooth it drove and the large roomy back. I think compared to a V6 Mustang, is a better car- more modern feel.

[@Dwilso621]

I ordered a new 93 GT and later purchased a red 94 GT, both 5 speeds. These cars handled well but really needed another 40hp. The SHO engine at the time would have been a good fit, however that would have created a rival to the Mustang, FWD and all. I have fond memories of my Probe GT's regardless of its not so well thought out name.

[@TonysFordsandMustangs]

Thanks for sharing!

[@pgtmr2713]

They didn't need the SHO engine. They needed the Japanese version of the same V6. Bolts in. Even runs on the stock ECU. If you want all the beans, headers an Maf swap(w/ecu). Lighter engine and the hood fits. It has it's own intake tricks. Sub 6 seconds to 60, over 7k rpm. SHO was around 7 - 60

[@cmoore7700]

Bought a 96 SE Probe brand new The dealer put in a pop up sunroof and stripes down the side As it turns out my 4 cylinder 5 speed was one of the best cars I ever owned. I believe just brake pads, oil changes and tires. I believe I traded it with about 165 k on her for my 02 LeSabre which I still drive to this day Thanks for the topic Stay well

[@michaelsimko7694]

The Probe had a very similar exterior design to some other cars of the 80s and 90s. The second gen looks very similar to an RX-7, Integra, Supra, and Aurora. Even a very similar front fascia to the BMW 850.

[@gsdfan8455]

I had a good friend that had a Probe gt. I don’t remember what year it was, but it was a blast. My ‘86 Mustang SVO would absolutely smoke it though.

[@tomtbi]

I believe I have seen model kits of the Probe... Maybe one day if I locate one at a decent price...

[@houseofno]

What really damaged the Probe's reputation is that it was underpowered compared with several of its competitors. Even the Nissan 240 SX overpowered it by ten to fifteen horsepower once Nissan upgraded the 2.4 to the twin cam version putting out 155 hp. The Celica All Trac Turbo was a 200 hp beast. But the car that was really putting the smack down on the Ford Probe were the Diamond Star twins, which depending on the model and year, was putting out anywhere from 195 to 210 hp. These could also be had with all wheel drive, as with the Toyota Celica All Trac Turbo. Ford could have put the 220 hp SHO V6 engine in this and really wiped out the competition.

[@MrSloika]

The Probe was knee capped by Ford because they didn't want a car that was faster than the Mustang. By the time the 2nd gen Probe came along Ford had a monster hit with the Explorer and they let the Probe die on the vine. It really was the correct biz decision. SUVs and pickups were machines that printed money for the car companies. Today not a single car company sells a hatchback coupe in the US.

[@Teddy-mj2zx]

Yeah, I bought one. I was young and I thought it was cool looking. But, I went on to buy several Mustangs. Nothing beats displacement.

[@billkerstein1637]

The 1989 model looked ok as a GT and performance and all was good for a 4 cylinder car. The '93 up GT really improved its looks and interior and all but the performance didn't match is good looks. I stuck with my reliable 10k '86 Fox 5.0 5speed and won lots of races and had tons of cheap fun and mods. Probes were much more expensive to fix like a Mazda and where are they all now? Foxes are still very abundant in all forms.

[@user-fj8wr8jh4e]
