"I only have 108k miles on the car, don't give it very much TLC, but it runs great still! The paint started showing it's age a couple years ago, but it cleans up nicely once washed. It does not compare to the technology of today, but it's a strong solid car. I have never once had an issue that costs more than $500 to fix. No major tranny or engine issues. The biggest repair I've had was to replace the axles. Mostly my fault because the CV boots ruptured and who knows how long I drove it with improperly greased axles. The biggest issue I have is road noise and squeaky suspension. It's not the most quiet car, but you get used to it after a while. The interior isn't bad. The bucket seats are cozy. It would make a great car for any first time driver or someone looking for a little extra bang for their buck in a used car."

"I bought my probe "well used" and i was ready for some repairs(as a matter of course i do a full tune up whenever i buy a used car), but i was not prepared for the amount of repairs that this car needed! The fact that virtually any repair part for this vehicle will cost you well over 100 dollars, coupled with the fact that it needs ALOT of repairs and its exceptionally tough to get at most things(i had to remove the air intake to change my fuel filter) this car just is not worth "investing" in. I will say this though when it runs, IT RUNS! This car was a blast to drive it had a lot more power than i expected and it handles beautifully. The gas mileage was about what you'd expect from this type of car, but to keep that mileage you have to keep it in perfect condition which (as i mentioned before) will cost you. My probe was the GT model and i think it was about fully loaded even so it seemed rather uncomfortable and not very drink friendly. So my advice would be if you can pick one up cheap go ahead and get it but start saving up for something more reliable, and the second it breaks down RUN!"

"Good this car looks sick, its fun to drive, it takes turns like a corevette, and it gets alot of looks. the interior isnt to much but the seats are great. this car runs 1/4miles about the same time as mustangs so its quick. Bad this car isnt reliable. you will have to work on this car quite a bit. and the parts are expensive to repair. fun, fast car, good for a student"

"i bought my probe gt with about 130000 miles, stickshift with all the features i have to say its very reliable the previous owner took good care of it, it looks still like new, and the 2.5 v6 is very powerfull for its age, ac is working very good , the brakes are solid, the gearbox is perfect, its not very confy, but its a sports coupe. its fun to drive and the quality is good ,after all its a mazda. the only thing i dont like about this car is thicking noises from the hydros. i am to lazy to fix them couse they have no influence on the performance of the car."

"The only gripe I have, and this is related to having the 2.0L is the way the AC saps power. Other than that, I can'y complain, especially with getting 27mpg around town in these days of almost $4.00 a gallon gasoline."

Yeah...I thought the car looked fine...kind of like a more bland rx-7...BUT never ever ever EVER get this car...the guy who said its good for your first car...NO!!!! steering, performance, comfort, reliability...they are all bad... so...if you are thinking of buying this vehicle, please save yourself the money and buy a bicycle instead..."
