I have always driven Hondas, but no more! After seeing a Protege5 on the highway, I decided to have a closer look. I am so glad I did! This drives great and is so fun! I think I'll keep this car forever!

I leased this vehicle because with a $19,029 sticker, 1/3 down at 9.5% still came out to $500 a month payment. My credit is very good, and these numbers are the finance departments' numbers. I was not crazy about the idea of leasing, but my wife wanted the car. We still purchased the car there because the price was the lowest of any of the Mazda dealers in our area.

So I just got my MP5. It really does handle the road just as well as you've heard, especially considering the under-20K price tag. Plenty of zip from the 130hp 2.0, and not as bumpy as I'd expected. The interior is excellent, and the black cloth will stay "clean" much longer than other colors. Gas mileage is a little sub-par, but this is the most fun I've had driving in a long time, so I'm gonna overlook its thirst at the pumps. I looked at the Corolla, Matrix, Civic, and Sentra before getting my new Yellow MP5. Great car for the money, and much more fun than anything in its class.
Great car for the money

Keep up the good work Mazda. Got the car in January and have almost 9000 miles on it without a single problem (other than a rock chip in the fog light). As with my Miata, the build quality seems very good. The car could use a more powerful motor, but the handling is great. The interior is well laid out and seems to be holding up well to the abuse of two children. This car is a great deal for what it costs.
