Used 1989 Ford Probe for Sale near Pittsburgh, PA

My 89 Probe GT has done really good. it handles like a beast and can easily smoke any wannabe racers around here. rocks everyone at stoplights. can even throw people in their seats in 5th gear, which is rare on a car. The only real problem with it is that upgrades are a bit limited for it. Due to it having the ford logo on it many asian car enthusiasts looked past this car as a sports car, front wheel drive didn't help that judgement at all. Though almost all the body panels say Mazda on the inside. If you want to ride this car hard. it can reach 120 quickly. Extremely fun to drive.

I bought Penelope the Probe after Dad smashed the Escort. This car got me cheaply and reliably through college, grad school and my first year of work. Conveniently, I was just about to put it up for sale when the Escort got totalled. My dad drove it for another 100,000 mi. He finally got a real new car after that, not another one of my rejects.

Love the looks. It has almost no blind spots. Have had issues with the wiper motor a couple of times. Gas mileage has always been low 30's to mid 30's for all types of driving. Handles like a dream and it fun to drive. Never felt unsafe in it.

This was a very fast car to drive and not for the tame of heart. It was as fast as most V8 sports cars and handled well on roads due to multiple settings for the suspension adjustable by rocker switch. It took wear and tear pretty well without major repairs if you drove average to spirited speeds occasionally. It was a low profile 2 door with a moon roof and a rear seat to boot. Without rust proofing the car will rust out from under you, but still it is a blast to drive.

2-2 Litre Turbo intercooled engine pushing in nowadays HP Ratings about 200. Excellent acceleration 0-60 in about 7 if you do it right. 24-26 MPG making it decent for a turbo 4 cylinder. Easy to maintain unless you are doing a rotor and brake job. this car is one of the funnest cars i have ever owned
