    New to the Mazda scene, how's this deal look?

    Its got low miles, but the price seems a bit high at least for my area (san francisco). But if reliability is what you are looking for...look elsewhere. My MSP was nothing but a PIA. It was in the shop more than my '93 s10 pickup has ever been. That is not saying much either.

    Why should I buy a Mazdaspeed Protege?

    Don't buy one unless you want to spend a bunch of time in the repair shop. The car handles/looks good, but it sure causes many a headache. I took my MSP to dealer so many times I've lost count. My '93 S10 pickup with 120k miles has been once in the same period.

    G-bye Mazdaspeed friends

    I don't want to start a knew thread. Adios to the MSP community. I sold mine yesterday, and am not looking back. My '88 MR2 SC is filling the void quite nicely.

    2002 Protege5 5 speed

    I read you point, and understand that unless you are interested in purchasing that particular vihicle, than why say anything at all. On other forums that are more strickly moderated ie: Mr2oc.com you would have been suspended for that bs. I understand you point, and I agree, but why bother if...

    2002 Protege5 5 speed

    ^^^82 miles a day. And this is why flamers suck. The thread is totally jacked, and I couldn't bring you back to my actual initial point if I tried.

    What's up with MSP resale?

    Even if they are unique, the MSP drives like a dream. But no one, even on this board where people are aware of the Speed brand, mean nothing for the resale of this car. Look here http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123647984 and here...

    What's up with MSP resale?

    The problem is that whether we as owners know how great this car is, it seems like not many other folks do. It is amaizing to me that someone would by a '03 civic (boring) for $12-$14k, while my MSP sits with a For Sale sign on it.

    Why should I buy a Mazdaspeed Protege?

    I'm yet to have an LSD problem @ 48k miles. But suspension squeaks (seems all fixed for now) and the exhaust system crumbling apart (twice) have been a PIA. It seems that if you leave the car alone, as it was engineered some ofthe problems people speak of are a non issue. There is a reason...

    What's up with MSP resale?

    Any hints . . . Ditto to how'd you pull that off? My instinct was that people just don't know what the car is. And I think a lot of the people who do, do not have the funds (young) to join. All I know is that selling my MSP has become a PIA. All stock, still warrantied with 47k miles...
