Description:
94 Ford Probe SE w/ tinted windows, exhaust tip, wing.
If you are curious that fender HAS been fixed, there is NO uniwiper (thank god) and I plan to get graphics done like http://www.ricecop-photo.com/pics/fatf1eclipse.jpg but no body kits, engine mods, etc cuz a) i'm a cook/HS student therefore low $$$ b) the car is used, 122,000 mi, almost 10 yrs, and a ford. |

#58, "all show and no go" might not be the best way to describe it.
Rice is the emphasis on looking flashy or "different" over looking good. A nice car should be understated and say "clean and well kept", rather than "look at me". "Look at me" cars always have a serious lack of taste.

#58, **no go when ur prentending there is go**
i see nothing wrong with added body kits (that match) and graphics to make a car that LOOKS nice, if thats all you want. just don't be revving ur engine at red lights or slapping "V12" emblems or performance product logos on it.

vynil is a) cheap (yes, dead horse) b) easily changable c) quick. paint jobs would take a long time, lots of money, and require the same thing to change it. with vynil a blow dryer and a butter knife removes it. (and vynil does stand up to weather as well as paint, so long as ur don't scrape at it.)
i couldn't tell u about the mods, cuz i honestly have no clue. but many of them had signs (not to mention the "bowling" trophies) listing all the engine mods. (which were actually vynil signs ;) ) this group though wasn't one u'd bring a stock car to and not get laughed at. i can't really explain it, sorry :( but these guys knew there shit

#68, what about your engine? What modz are done to it that are similar to the ones at the car show?
"but these guys knew there shit"
i bet they looked like extra's for the fast and the furious right? All standing around like they were tough shit right?

#69, FWD is dangerous - makes your car slower and structurally weakens your car's chassis.

#70, um, well maybe cuz i got me liscense in june, but i have fun driving me car. and as for the engine mods, like my profile says, there are none to speak of. and no, no FatF extras. there were walking around checking out cars, talking asking questions (that were over my head, of course) and just having a great time. it was actually a really fun day. they closed of 3 blocks in the city, had demo vehicles from different audio companys, food, live Dj, and (lol, this takes the cake) a rice-off

#74, you only hydroplane if you are driving to fast for the road/tires. i have only once hydroplaned and thats cause i was doinf 60 in a curve. and if you know how to drive, you can drive a RWD just as good as FWD in the snow

#74, yeah - trying traction in the snow - yeah that's real fun.
I mean putting all the stress of stearing braking and acceleraion on both of them is real smart.

#79, NO! I hate FWD! It's the most useless drivetrain ever made! I'd like to find the grave of the man who invented FWD and piss on it as well as knock the tombstone over!
