Depends what you're driving. Also, I think you're confusing clean lines with generic ones. I can take one look at that car and tell you very little imagination went into it's creation. I might make an exception save for the fact that my "domestic box" (which actually weighs around 3400lbs) will hand it it's ass every day of the week and twice on Sundays on a road course or a drag strip while still being reliable as sunrise. Remember, a Probe falls just as much under the category of "domestic box" as a Mustang or Camaro...especially since Ford at one time was considering scraping the Mustang altogether and using the Probe as their flagship sports car. In fact, I can't think of an American sports car made in my lifetime that didn't have clean lines but still an aggressive look. Honda did that with the S2000 so you know they're capable of it. Why waste your time with an underpowered car that reminds me of a shoe (that's 1/2 of why I don't like Vipers...look like clown shoes)?
