Hence is the reason they should change the car. I liked the older T-Birds and Cougars. My parents had one, and while they were a bit bigger, they rode real nice and were a grear highway car.

If ford wants to cash in on the "import sport compact" market, they better go back to the drawing board. They need something wiht a little better (more aggressive styling) and a whole lot better performance. Even a V6 with mild boost from a Turbo or SC would help. They'd need around 200-220 HP. And give the car the handling to keep up with the ITR's and other imports.

Actually I think it is too bad that Ford canned the Probe. I liked the probe, for the car that it was. I even looked at buying one before I looked at my stang. It's just not the car for me.
