Nelson Couto's 1996 Ford Probe GT

Here's my info for your records
- 1996 Probe GT, factory ordered on the A-Plan. My dad and two uncles work for Ford
- My car was one of the first 96's to get produced (August 95 build date) and get shipped to Canada. I saved the original window sticker because it's neat: instead of listing a price it says "this car not for sale / N Couto"
- Boysenberry Blue
- Black cloth interior
- 5 speed manual transmission
- ABS brakes
- Premium sound
- Usual power options
- Aftermarket cruise because dealership screwed up my order
- I never did get tilt steering and of course no 96's have the rear wiper.
Mods:
- K&N stock-box filter
- Castrol Syntec
- Code Alarm security system
- GT decals removed
- Fogged rear license plate
- Baby seat in the back for my daughter Hannah
- My dealer installed the anchor for free
Because of Canadian regulations, my GT lights are on whenever the hand brake isn't set.
I haven't done many mods because the car is already so sweet for daily driving and most of my money/attention goes into the Mustang.
Other ride:
What a great club! I hope to be accepted as a member even though I live too far away to participate in person.
