Yeah, so I know this may be the dumbets post ever, I am curious if anyone knows how many yellow Protege5s were sold in the US. I just bought one, and I really do not see many on the road. I havent seen any here in North Florida. So does anyone know this?

In the last 3 weeks I have seen 3 yellow P5's. Or is it 1 yellow P5 3 times (confused)
Congrats on the purchase and welcome to the forum. Yellow was my first choice of color but couldn't find any in my area at the time I bought. Nonetheless I am still a proud owner of the P5. (thumb)

thanks for the welcome. I am loving my '03 p5. I managed to find one with a clear carfax report, one owner, and low miles (31k). I am so happy with it!!!
but yeah, I rarely see any p5's in my area and I dont think I have seem any more that 3 yellow ones in recent years. Mazda only produced them in 02 and 03, correct?

Yea they seem to be the most uncommon color. Luckily I got a nice one with only 32k miles in December. I've never seen another yellow one in person. lol

there are 3 yellow ones in the small city I currently live in... :(
One is completely stock and is owned by one of the local high school kids and looks like the greatest american hero, the other is owned by a lovely young lady and looks allot like mine; tint, lowered, wheels, exhaust... only way to tell the difference between mine and hers are that she has chrome wheels.

When I ordered mine back in June 2001, it took 5 months to deliver. Could not find a yellow one in New England that wasn't an automatic.

I have a yellow one. I've seen at least a couple more here in ATL. Might be Boston5761 that I've seen around town? I get pretty extreme opinions on the color, love it or hate it. Not that I care what others think about the color. I definitely went for the yellow. Best color for the MP5!!

I think yellow is the most common color. I see more yellows than any other color. It might just be that they stand out more than any other color.

P5s are pretty uncommon as it is... 2 years of production, however they are much loved.... My Neighbor/former coworker copied my Red with his yellow...
maybe we can count up the posts about yellow to count the yellow in the states?

In my area there are a few. I would say maybe 6 that I had seen since I got mine in June of 2002. Oddly enough, one of them worked in the building next to mine so I would see it go by the window and think my car got jacked for a second. Then a year or so later another person that used the daycare that I was using had one as well.
I traded mine in in January, so if you live in the Albany NY area maybe you bought mine. If so PM me.
Edit: just reread the original post and saw that you are from north FL.

it must've been two weeks after i got my yellow p5 before i saw another yellow one. of course, this yellow on in particular now lives like 4 houses down the road from me. so much for being unique. oh well...i can't hate on another p5'er!!!

hehe, I saw a yellow P5 today.
I was going into the left turn lane, and a lady in a yellow was in the next lane over (left...straight lane?) a few cars back. Anyway, I sorta checked out the car as I rolled past, and when their light changed, she looked and smiled lol

Go to www.mazdausa.com, and ask them. They're always very helpful when I have questions.
