Nope, never had that one. Hey don't say "yuck" about the Probe. I have owned 3 and had a blast with each one. I had a first gen and 2 2nd Gens. They are VERY fun.

Hell, I'VE DONE THAT! I hate it too. I've seen probes and had to take a second look, just to be sure it was a probe. But its not that bad, I mean, Rx7s, Probes, and Mr2s are all very similar in the front ends...it just comes from the fact that they were all manufactured similiarly.
