Up for sale is my 1995 Ford Probe GT. I am the second owner of the vehicle and used it to commute to and from work for about a year. The car is a great vehicle, low mileage for the year and it has a fun to drive 2.5L V6 with 5 speed. After a year of driving the car, I got a company car through my work and didn't drive it much, but still liked the little Probe. The car wasn't driven much for about 2 years as I had a company car, but I did take it out on weekends and around town to run it. The car is mostly stock with the exception of a cold air intake and a test pipe for the exhaust which takes away the cat converter. I have all the original air intake and catalytic converter. The car passed NJ inspection with flying colors, but if you live in NJ and want me to reinspect it should you win, I will do so for an additional $100.00. I purchased new tires about 1 year ago and have only put about 2000 miles on them, I also brought it to a local mechanic for a tune and checkup at that time. The car needed a new radiator and a new distributor and crank position sensor. I also put new brakes on the car and new rear calipers. I have had the oil changed on this car every 3500 miles and have taken good care of it, however it is an older car and despite the low mileage it does still need a few things. The car needs a new battary as the one thats in there now runs down and the gauge on the dash shows it's low. The car also has a hole in the exhaust near the muffler so it's louder than usual. Honestly, I was between putting Borla exhaust and a new battery or selling it for money for a ring for my girl. It came down to keeping the girl and with this being an older car other things can come up that need fixing and being that I don't drive it that much, it's just not worth it for me to put money into it. The exterior of the car is ok for it's age, it has a few small dents on the hood, sides and roof. The paint of the rear bumper is faded and the PS FR fog light is missing. The PS of vehicle has a dent in the quarter panel and as a result it's caused a gap near the ps hatch lid. Also, the ps rear window is not cemented at the bottom. If you are looking for a mint condition Probe, this is not your car...However if you are looking for a good probe with low miles and a couple easy mechanical fixes and you don't mind the body having a dent on the PS, this a great vehicle for you. The car is being sold AS IS. I will not ship the car, so if you are the winning bidder you can come and get it or arrange shipping. If you would like to come see the car, please email me, I do work long hours on weekdays and some weekends but I can make a time that you can come out. If you have any questions please email me. The car battery is low, but if you want to drive it home I can throw a trickle charger on it overnight and charge it up for you. I have tried to describe the vehicle to the best of my knowledge, but I am not a mechanic. The car is 17 years old and being that I don't drive it much there could be other things that need fixing, but I am not aware of it. The car is sold as is and where is. There are no warning lights on the dash and all accessories work well. A/C is cold, heat is hot, radio works. The power antenna works but sometimes doesn't extend fully. I usually give it a shot of WD every once and a while and that works. For winning bidder, 500 deposit due via Pay Pal within 48hrs of winning auction and the rest paid cash upon pickup. I have the title in hand and still have an active insurance policy on vehicle so if you come to look, I can take you for a ride. The mileage on the car has been listed, however I may be driving the vehicle locally or for test rides so it might change slightly. I have a video of a walk around car and car running at http://youtu.be/gZILey_FHvg

11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching
Fri, 26 Sep 2014This weekend will see the world's collector car crowds descend on Las Vegas, NV for one of the biggest shows on Barrett-Jackson's popular auction circuit. There are hundreds of vehicles up for bidding, ranging from a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador to a spattering of Art Deco classics and a huge swath of classic muscle cars.
While it's virtually impossible to assemble an inarguable list of the best cars coming during the three-day, 700-plus vehicle auction, we've sifted through the listings for this year's show - it was a tough assignment, we promise - and assembled a list of what we think will be some of the most interesting lots. We'll admit, it's a bit heavy on American iron, but if you browse BJ's listings, you'll come to a similar conclusion. Still, scroll down for our list of what we think will be the most interesting vehicles at the upcoming auction.
2014 Ford Fusion to get 1.5L EcoBoost three-cylinder?
Tue, 09 Apr 2013Just one year after launching the all-new 2013 Fusion, Ford is reportedly set to alter the sedan's powertrain lineup with the addition of a new 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. A member of Blue Oval Forums apparently got their hands on the ordering guide for the 2014 model year Fusion, and this 1.5-liter mill is set to be introduced with late availability.
This lines up with other news about the Chinese-market Mondeo being offered with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost - a derivative of the 1.0-liter triple that will come to North America under the hood of the Fiesta (note: the 1.0 is also offered in the current Euro-spec Mondeo). In the Chinese application, the larger three-pot engine produces 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, which is very close to the current 1.6-liter inline-four's output numbers of 178 hp and 184 lb-ft.
What's interesting, however, is that the 1.6-liter engine will reportedly still be offered in the Fusion, but only with the six-speed manual transmission. The smaller 1.5-liter EcoBoost will only be mated to a six-speed SelectShift automatic, and will feature start/stop. This means that while the 1.5 is slightly down on power compared to the 1.6, it could easily improve fuel economy numbers, allowing the Fusion to regain the title of having the best mileage in the segment, likely besting the 38 miles per gallon of the Nissan Altima. Currently, the Fusion 1.6 is rated at 23 mpg city and 36 mpg highway.
Ford starting up 2.0L EcoBoost engine production in Ohio
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Joe Hinrichs, Ford's President of The Americas (pictured above), announced today that in late 2014, the automaker will be building the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder at its Cleveland Engine Plant, a move requiring a $200-million investment and the hiring of 450 new employees. European-built Ford products will continue to source this engine from the Valencia, Spain plant where all of these EcoBoost four-cylinder engines are currently built, and the new Cleveland engines will be used for all North American-made models.
Ford is planning to build its popular EcoBoost engines regionally to maximize production capacity and meet customer demand. Last year, Ford sold 334,364 vehicles with EcoBoost engines in the US alone, and that number is expected to swell to more than 500,000 by the end of this year, with global sales expected to total 1.6 million. By 2015, Ford says that 95 percent of its nameplates will offer an EcoBoost engine.
One such vehicle that could be adding an EcoBoost engine, according to Automotive News, is none other than the 2015 Ford Mustang. The report says that Ford could use either the 2.0-liter EcoBoost or an upcoming 2.3-liter EcoBoost in the sixth-generation pony car.
