More than likely if he owns a protege, hes not a millionaire.. (No offense to anyone that has a protege)
 
Talk about impressive.Here is an EVO MR, I know tit has some more suspension work, but the evo9 is not that much different. Could your car do this.........

Just to reiterate what Mazdaspeed2oo35 was saying, this is not an Evo IX, regardless of what the hilarious people at youtube want you to think. It's a very expensive (although not compared to the Lambo) very limited production Evo VIII FQ400 (F'n quick 400hp :) ). Very cool car, but nothing like a regular Evo, and not sold in the US.
 
you shouldn't assume you know the financial situation of others. For all you know he's loaded. The car driven by most millionaires in america is the ford F150 pickup truck.

Granted I think spending over 20K in mods on a protege is silly, but who am I to tell the man what to do with his money. I would advise him otherwise but in the end, he earned it, he can spend it how he wishes.

One thing I learned from working at a dealership is NEVER assume a persons networth. A lot of the time, you'll be wrong.

Some people would rather take a 25k ride and beat up on cars that cost twice as much. I remember when those '95 Supra Turbos were the rage, but they couldn't beat a stock Camaro SS that cost half as much. Sounds like fun to me. But the man luvs his msp, and I don't think he regrets making that purchase...I know when I bought my Pro that's what I could afford at that time. I got attached and now I won't be trading it in for anything...I'll just buy something else. I can't put 20k in mods on my car...couldn't see explainin' that to the misses...but if you have the money to do it and that's what u wanna do, then go 'head. But I wouldn't comment on someone else's finances and I don't know them.

lol you are funny guy... Thank god that my car is Paid off, and the $22k I have spend is paid off as well. and I still have more left to spend... but I already have what i was looking for in a Car.. and let me tell you something buddie, if you are a person that loves building cars, doing stuff to it, to make it better, then you can't own a Ferrari or a Lambo they are not my dream type of car and much less a MS3, EVO, STI's, you can't do s*** to Ferraris and lambos and for me is more of a satisfaction to Beat the hell out of them with a Car that is 10 times or more Cheaper in price.. I've seen SRT-4's Beating the s*** out of Ferraris, lambos and other amazing cars, I mean After the race you still own a mazda and them a Ferrari but also after the race you have beat the s*** out of them. and for me that is priceless. Anyway i'm not building my car for racing anyways, I've taken care of everything i have dream to have in a car. and I do love My MSP or Protege how ever you want to call it, i'll Never Change it for any other car, not even if you put me a Lambo keys in my hands, I've worked my butt up too hard to buy my car, mod it the way I did and to support my Family and my 2 Kids.. so if you are not happy with what you have, then you really have a problem.. I rather be unique than having a car everyone owns. don't matter if is a Mazda Protege for me its better than anything out there with 4 wheels.. and yes im not a millionaire and don't want to be one.. Just like puff daddy has said in his songs.. " MORE MONEY MORE PROBLEMS" don't try to be more than what you are, don't try to have something you can't afford. and don't be jelous for what other people have and you don't.. Im not poor, Im not Rich, but I'am a happy Family men that Enjoys every penny I make and everything I have and can afford. I already have the most inportant thing in life which is My lovely Family, Wife and Kids....
 
one great thing about the msp as well is its rarity.... thats one of the biggest reasons i love my MSP......your hardly ever going to see an msp riding next to you on the road if ever.... i know ive only seen about 4 total on the road and probably once or twice at a car show... also ive hardly ever heard anyone say a negative comment about the msp's body style. i hear complaints about the ms3's body all day long and hear a bunch of wagon comments. IMO the msp is a lot better than the ms3 OVERALL. obviously not performance wise but with everything put together. Mazdaspeed2oo35's protege along with Pirana and others are proof that the msp can go very far.

+1...and when u add price in the mix, in my opinion, the msp is the better buy also...18K in '02-'03 vs. 28k in '07-'08. Yeah, the ms3 stock will leave a msp in a straight line, but if I can put in 10k in that same msp i'm almost sure i can outrun that ms3.

no doubt, same money value between them, MSP will win anytime anyday.. That's what' Im saying, you put a descent amount of money in the MSP and will kick mayor ass, the funny thing in here is that MSP still being almost 5 Years older in everything, Technology and s*** is still a better car then the MS3, for one Moment I close My eyes and Imagine a Redesign Protege and Wow.. Mazda Will be the Best Sport Compact Car Manufacture for ever men... There is things I don't understant about making vehicles. Toyota ****** up by discontinuing one of the best Sports Cars Toyota Supra Twin Turbo, Mazda the RX-7 Twin Turbo, Ford Probe GT, ACURA the NSX-T or R, Etc Etc, look at what they have now. Toyota aint got s*** to compete, Mazda the Useless Junk RX-8, Ford the Focus SVT which is not even close to their European Model Focus RS, by fact that they have been discontinued don't means they suck...oh well Poor of those people that can't or don't want to own a really Unique Vehicle like the MSP, Supra, RX-7, NSX, for sure I'm writing a page in my history by owning a Peace of Jewel that probably wont come back for production....

just out of curiousity, what reasons do you have justifying this?

You again buddie ?,, I'm not going to argue with you again men... i already did.. It is a better car, considering that MSP costs $ 19,000 atleast Y bought mine brand new at that price, the MS3 It's too expensive for what it is. 2.3 liter engine with 93 HP more than the MSP ? so what? we are no focusing here only about the Power between them, we already know the MS3 it has a bigger engine with more horsepower, but that don't mean its a better car. The MSP Appearance its way over the MS3 one.. even if you look at a regular 3 Sedad, do you think it looks better and handle better than a regular Protege ES ? be honest, now i'll ask you the same question, why do you think the MS3 overall its better than the 5 Years Old MSP... ???? honest answer, no sarcasm here or beign a dick.... in don't want my thread to be close down.

im not beinga dick either. i honestly think the msp looks a thousand times better than the ms3 and the 3 sedan. i just wanted to know wut technology makes the protege better than the ms3.
 
Picture that SVT Focus motor in the msp + a turbo, maybe boosted to about 6psi...220 hp easy. Or even forged internals in the FS and price the msp at 21K and boost it to 9-10psi...perfect sport compact in my opinion.

I think he's saying the msp is a better car EVEN though the technology is 5 years behind the ms3...I think.

there You go B.I.G.. you just got the point....i was trying to explain. sorry about my english, sometimes its sucks a fat D**K
 
Wow...u talkin' about a 15 hour drive or a 3 hr flight...and my 'Skins just beat ur Dolphins!!!

But really, someone said the tranny for the SVT Focus wouldn't fit? That motor was a 2.0 Cosworth, right? They could have really built on that and the msp would be an even better buy...way better than the srt-4 AND the ms3...and that was 5 years ago.

I still wish they would have put the ms3 motor in the sedan...or at least make it an option.
 
yeah miguel i understand you... your car is proof of what your talking about... just put up numbers and pics/videos when its done and see what people say.



damn dolphins

Sure I will, but you'll always see someone to say something negative about it, like, oh that is a waste of money and useless, but honesly i don't care, you know me. you know im not full of Crap, you've seen my car before,and know where it is right now you'll be one of the first to see my ride rolling on tha streets..
