1996 Ford Probe Gt V6 White 5speed 95k Mi Low Mileage Second Owner Title In Hand on 2040-cars
Corvallis, Oregon, United States
|
Up for sale is my 1996 Ford Probe GT. It has a 2.5L DOHC V6 engine with 95k miles on it. The transmission is a 5-speed manual. It is a two door coupe that seats four. Everything on the car is stock except for the air intake and the sound system/speakers. I am only the second owner in the car's history, have had it for about 4 years and have put about 10k miles on it. The car's title is clean and I have it in hand.
The good: -Less than 100k original miles is great for a car almost 20 years old -Interior is in good shape, there are a couple of cosmetic problems but it has seat covers that match on the front two seats -Brand new interstate battery with a 5 year manufacturers warranty (Feb, '14) -Aftermarket kenwood sound system: cd/radio/aux input single din deck with four kenwood speakers -full engine tune up when I bought it: timing belt, spark plugs, system fluids flush -regular oil changes since I have owned it -10% tint on all windows except the windshield -All power options on the car work: sunroof, windows and locks, side view mirrors, cruise control, and even the remote locks. I have the original set of keys (key and key fob) along with a spare key -Brand New rain-x windshield wipers -Full detail including the engine bay -Smoke-free environment The bad: -tires are at about 25% tread and will need replacing soon -trunk struts are broken so the hatch does not stay open on its own -one headlight motor is broken so it won't flip down, however both lights work when the headlights are turned on -the steering is a little off and it probably needs an alignment -it has California plates with expired tags Overall, this is a good car. The car has treated me well over the years and I will be sad to see it go. Its a perfect first car. For all the parents out there, consider that its a manual transmission, so you have to drive with two feet and two hands most of the time so you're not gonna be using a cell phone while driving. It also has an aux input so you can play Pandora through the car's speakers! All photos were taken April 14, 2014. |

Ford Fusion production scaled back just 3 months after it was accelerated
Mon, 02 Dec 2013Three months after kicking off production of the Ford Fusion at its Flat Rock, MI factory, Ford Motor Company is taking steps to trim output in the face of heavily discounted competition from Toyota and a growing supply of vehicles.
The addition of Fusion production in Flat Rock - which also builds the Mustang - was meant to be what pushed the handsome mid-sizer past its arch-nemesis, the Toyota Camry. An extra facility building Fusions was also meant to curb the growing demand for Ford's highly profitable sedan.
But with word that Flat Rock would take "approximately" one extra week off for the holidays combined with an 88-day supply of Fusions - reportedly due in no small part to what Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas called "aggressive discounting of the Camry" - some analysts are now beginning to wonder if Ford may have overextended itself by adding a second Fusion facility to the mix.
How Ford's light lab keeps the sun shining on the new Mustang just right [w/video]
Thu, 02 Jan 2014Anyone who's bought one of those old school metal shift knobs knows they're really cool until they sit in a parking lot in the sun for a few hours. Then they're not cool at all. Likewise, features such as the aluminum dash on the 2015 Ford Mustang can be all kinds of neat right up until the sun hits it just the right way and sends shards of blinding light through the cabin. The Ford Visual Performance and Evaluation Lab is where engineers figure out how to make sure that doesn't happen.
Cars like said Mustang are parked inside the 30-foot reflecting dome under 6,000 watts of lights that can mimic the sun at any time of day and in any weather condition. Engineers can then spend cold, overcast days inside, testing for interior legibility, glare and reflections on every interior and exterior surface as if it were bright and sunny. They can also learn how a car's sheetmetal and colors will look out of doors, all year round.
Ford showed off the lighting lab without the music and interviews three years ago when the Explorer was being prepared. You can watch it at work again in the video below, and read about it in the press release below that.
Preserving automotive history costs big bucks
Wed, 29 Jan 2014
$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.
