The Mazda MazdaSpeed Protege is, in my opinion, like a hidden gem, no one would expect such power to look at the vehicle, but jump inside and you are in for quite an experience. The stabalizer bar takes some getting used to at first, but as in most racing vehicles, it keeps a tight reign on the steering capacity. Once you hit 45mph, it's smooth sailing, as this is when the turbo kicks in, and you're off to the finish line!! All in all this vehicle is a great adventure for those who like speed without the high cost!
I love this car!
I just purchased this car 2 weeks ago and have never had so much fun. I searched for months to find the right car and ever since i drove the msp i was in love. I tried to find flaws that it had and there were really none. It was about 2k more than i planned on spending but, it was well worth it! It is my first new car and i have test-driven them all, trust me this car is sweet. Oh yeah, i chose black....Just as much fun as driving my dads porsche.

Speed 03
Nice car...in black only for 03 model...not 03.5 I am partial to it's performance and many impressive add ons that increase it's handling prowess.. IMHO. :)
Amazing, Fun Car
Overall, this is one of the best cars you could possibly acquire for the money. I have never had a more fun car to drive. The grip is relentless, and the steering is untouchable.
best protege ever made
Combine some minor engine performance mods with excellent suspension tuning using the best compact car platform made and you get a reliable, sporty car that is a blast to take on weekend trips through the hill country while not punishing you during your daily commute.
