Used 2002 Mazda Protege Sedan Consumer Reviews
Great to feel young again.
I love the car. Test drove alot of cars before buying this one. Have the 2002 LX 5 speed. Was driving a Jeep SUV and switched to the mazda and now I feel like I'm in High School again. Took a 5 hour drive down the coast line for a week end trip and had blast. My wife said if she new it would shave 20 years off my life she would have got me one a long time ago.
Don't over look this gem!
I was going to get a VW Golf or a Honda Civic just like everyone else but then I decided to give the 2002 Mazda Protege LX a look and am I glad I did. The car rides great with sport suspension, and if there were a ratio for power to fuel economy, this car has got it absolutely right. Tight steering is a definite plus as well as the view. I like the fact that this car isn't loaded down with a lot of gizmos that add weight and can go wrong in the future. It has just was is needed for driving fun and "zoom, zoom, zoom" in the Phoenix area. Only thing I will need to do is have the windows tinted.

So far so good. Protege has been a pleasure to drive and is beautifully appointed within. Engine is relatively peppy (hey, it's a four cylinder). Handling is crisp and responsive.
Great Small Car
I wanted a reliable and economical small car that looked good and performed well. After extensive research and several test drives, I bought the Protégé. The Protégé LX does not disappoint. At $13,499 after rebates, I doubt there is a better new car in this price range. It has ABS, CD, alarm system, alloy wheels, and all the standard LX features. I'm very happy with its styling and performance, particularly its handling. It's great fun to drive. If it lives up to its reputation for long term reliability I will be very happy.
Love it
My Mazda Protege 2002 is the best car i have ever had. I will never go back to another car in my life. Everything about this car is wonderful. Nothing as gone wrong since i have purchased it. This car is worth buying!!!!
