2001 Mazda Protege Review
55
My 01 Protege — Well.. I love the car for that fact that its so reliable.. I've rarely had a problem with it and when I did it was something simple.. Like the seatbelts get stuck in the back all the time. Other than that its aq wonderful car.. Small.. Great on fuel.. The only thing I dislike would be the fact that its totally a mom-mobile. Not your average car for teens. But oh well. The pros outweigh the cons in this one.

Nothing Can Beat The Mazdarati, Lol — Accelerates well. Gets about 27 mpg. Handles quite well... hugs curbs. I haven't need to do many repairs on this car. Fairly inexpensive to maintain. I love driving everywhere we go. It is a nice car, but wish I would have bought the MP3 version. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

An Excellant Car And Fun To Drive. It Has Power,acceleration And Good Braking Power. — This car is fun to drive, it has power.Other than normal maintenance it does not cost me a lot of money to maintain . Had MAZDA come with a solid wheel hubcaps, and uses 87 octane gas, I would give the will a passing mark of 100 This car of mine has giving me more than 12 years of coninous service.

Goodbye Friend — This was the first car I purchased and I have maintained it pretty well. The interior and exterior look very good. The mechanicals are good and I have only spent money perishables. The car was new when I purchased it from Essington Mazda (I think). It's been a while. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

This Car Is Fun To Drive And Romp On — This car handles very well at high speeds and cornering , For a 4cyl 2.0 it can really get up and go reaching a nice 6,500 rpm's at redline , I only wish that the Es model had the same turbo setup as the mp3 protige, if I decide to keep this car down the road and have the money I will completely convert this car into a stage 2-3 mp3 ; ) Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

Protege 2.0 — The es version is very well put together, the sport suspension that is easily upgraded, quailty brakes and a very quick car. The 2.0 engine has extream mid band power but nothing eles around it because of mild cams and a computer that holds back the power(easily changable). The car is so much fun to drive it has 150k and i beat the crap out of it everyday and it just takes it, with a aftermarket ecu the gas mileage isnt as good but it still gets around 20 Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

Good Car For Someone Wanting A Good Looking Car To Drive Year Round And Get Good Milage. — It looks good, handles decent, but its slow! not many good performance parts available, gas milage is great though, cost of ownership is not cheap but not too expensive, often mistaken for a damn subaru impreza. Winter handling is decent. Not many other MP3s out there. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |
