Hello all. This is my first post, since I'm currently looking for a new car. I've been offered a good deal on a protege (2003 ES) and it's on the top of my list. Here's what I test drove:
protege 5 auto
protege ES stick
SE-R spec V
focus SVT
vibe GT
celica GT-S
corolla S
civic Si
Besides the vibe and corolla (which suck), the protege is the most underpowered of the group, but driving it felt the best.
I was just wondering what other people thought about the protege, especially compared to these other similar cars.
BTW, the mazdaspeed protege I didn't get a chance to drive because there isn't a dealer within an hour of where I am. I'd love to drive one, but I got a great deal on the 03 protege probably because it has 2000 miles on it.
Thanks.
