I'll probably be banned now.

You don't really see too many of the old turbo Probes running around though. There's this kid around here that I see all the time with a purple Probe GT that has what appears to be intake, exhaust, and a wall clock sized indiglo tach on the dash. Race car, let me tell you! Very obnoxious car. I do see that a lot in the second gen body style Probe community..
