    This lol. They definately didn't think airbags would be in EVERYTHING 1o years later.

    I think that mx looks like a cross between a 80's prelude, s-13 silvia, and a fiero-like interior.

          But the people that do, know that nobody likes to lose to a Probe, also!

          I did!

          But it wasn't to get rid of the Probe... It was to stop it from replacing the Mustang with a FWD 4 banger.

            ^^^Touché, my friend.

            So, there was actually a petition to rid the world of our beloved Ford Probe? What was this based on? I thought the notion that it was going to replace the Mustang was just something that us Probe fanatics chose to believe.

                how dare they... you know. replace it with a FWD 4 banger that was just as fast, and got an extra 10MPG over the waste of a V8. lol

                  I just noticed the HUD...

                  Three years before the first production vehicle with HUD in 1988.

                    Mazda concept looks NSX-ish.

                        Do not like the probe at all.

                          Mazda looks remind me of that odd looking Subaru SVX that seems to only exist in the junkyard. Probe looks horrid

                          Both remind that the 80's was a strange time....

                            At least the MX-6 looks like it inherit some of the exterior traits of this car like the wing.

                              Weird ^ this post shows up under new posts as having been posted on september 13 at 3:30 ish.

                              IIrc the Mazda concept was rwd with a rotory powerplant, and the look is definitely ferrari F-40.
