I am 20, with a 90 LE. I like my cars to look like pimp cars, I think the older bonnies look awesome. BTW the probe runs either a 2.2 DOHC w/ or w/out turbo. The turbo is very fast, because it is the same engine running 1st gen. MX6's. The other is the wimpy 2.5 v6 which is garbage.

16 right here. Bought it off a 90 year old with 111,000 miles who kept it meticulous. Yes, I agree with everyone; most people think it's an old person's car but they don't know a good car when they see one. I have a 94 SE with a CAI and I could beat 90% of the cars in my Junior parking lot at my high school. I mean, come on! Yeah, uummmmm, let me take your 91 ford probe with a (I don't know) 1.2 liter over my 3800. I'll leave you in the dust. Now I'm cool.

I'm 19 years old, and a FEMALE (oh gee, boys, imagine that!?) and I have a 1995 SE, a 1989 SE, and a 1988 SSE. And I love them, my 1995 is always being mistaken for a cop car, and people get out of the way fast... And like someone mentioned in the forum before, it's an awesome surprise and go-getter.

20 and bought from my parents. I've seen a few kids my age with bonnes, but they are all below average condition.

I'm going to be 24 in 5 days. I needed a winter/daily driver since my last beater died. I figured I step up a bit and get a Bonny, so I picked up a 90 SSE and I'm glad I did because I do enjoy driving it. It still runs great even at 134,xxx miles!

Sorry guys but I bought mine when I was 29 and I'm now 36. I don't have much of a choice on cars. I'm 6'5 and 280 lbs, I like my wife's Honda but I don't quite fit it. I would be able to drive it if it were a manual. So I've owned big cars except for my '68 mustang and that had to be an automatic too. I drove a '91 Taurus SHO but had to get me an SSEi!!

I'm 27 and bought a 98 SSEi about a year ago. Had an olds with a 3800 in it that got up to 210,000 miles before I sold it. The 3800s seemed reliable enough that I decided to stick with it. The 240hp is quite a step up from the 165 I previously had.
