Used 1997 Mazda Protege Consumer Reviews
A Car That Makes Sense
Not only does the car have highly functional dash, it also is visually pleasing... The Protege doesn't seem like your regular cookie-cutter small car... The tiny 1.5L engine is capable, and sometimes suprising with the 5- speed manual... The back seat has good leg room and the trunk is rather large. I have owned this car for a year, put 20,000 miles on it, and have had no major repairs... any repairs needed were easily done within 5 to 10 minutes... Consider the LX or the slightly more expensive ES over the DX model...
WOULD BUY IT AGAIN!
VERY RELAIBALE CAR, SPAECIOUS, ACCOMODATE FAMILY OF 4-5 EASILY, HUGE TRUNK FOR ITS SIZE, NICE LOOKS, VERY COMFORTABLE RIDE.
Perfect little car
I love my Mazda! When I'm ready to change cars again I will look for another one! You pay less than for a Honda or Toyota and it's just as, if not more, reliable. It's very cute and fun to drive (I have a manual transmission, they are way more fun than an auto)and has gone up and down my awful dirt road for 2 years with no problem. Highly recommended!
fun car!
I love driving this car! I have a 1.5 liter engine, and with a standard it has plenty of pick-up. It shifts like a dream, one of the easiest I've encountered. I'm over 100,000 miles and have never had any major problems with my car. I'll definitely but Mazda again!
Great Car!
It is a small version of a luxury car.
