dude, the 1st gen probe looks the same as teh eclipse and lasers. and actually, performace wise, stock for stock it would beat a 2nd gen. And also, I know that getting an AWD would be phat, no shit, but I dont have 5 grand to spend, unless my dad wants spend money, but if he spends that much money on a car, hes not gonna get me a suped up beast. That guy did have nice care car though.

Yea, first gen probes are fast as hell, but there's a lot about their styling that I just don't like man. Good luck on whatever you do decide to get though bro.

Heh, I personally like the body style of the Probe GT that you have now. It'll probably be an option if I can find one with a manual.

They're pretty quick stock, and since they are turbocharged, they've got a lot of potential for expansion. The engines have a LOT of torque if I remember correctly.

2.2L I-4 turbo, 12V SOHC
compression at 7.8:1
145 HP @ 4300
190 TQ @ 3500

The only thing i dont like is that its not DOHC with 16V
But that low compression allows for lots..lots of boost if you wanted to.

If you get one and decide to raise the boost, port match the head and get a 3 angle valve job done to improve flow, it'll seriously help.
