to have a car that not too many peole have. i was driving around yesterday and i noticed a ton of people doing full head turns as they drove to get a good look at my p5. my car is 2 years old and i love more than when i bought it. how many other cars give you that feeling?

sorry to start another "i love my p5" thread, but i just thought it was cool. (2thumbs)

z00m ~ z00m bitches!
 
Word. And the car will still be unique since it was discontinued. These have been a special 2 years of production.
 
I get the head turning all the time......there aren't too many silver pro5's in my area.....most of them are the dark blue

even then I might see one a week
 
They're all over north houston and they're all silver, or that poo blue color. No white ones ;)
 
There are enough here that I see one or two a month...met a girl at Home Depot that also had a black P5. She was ecstatic to find another P5 driver. Kinda cute too, but I'm married....

Although I will have to admit I love my P5. Just wish I had excess cash to spend on it -- damn mortgage!!! I love it in stock form though...just the wheel gap is a little much.
 
yeah Jose I was thinking of the same thing today. On the way back from teaching, I saw a silver P5 slowly leaving a light coming in my direction (I was in the other lane). As they approached, I gave him a thumbs-up, and as I turned, all three guys in the car smiled and gave thumbs-up. I was driving home the rest of the way (30 min) with a stupid ass grin on my face. Checking... still there lol

And I have a co-worker at walmart always saying I'm obsessed w/my car (I work at a photo lab so I'm constantly printing out pictures of teh stitchmobile). One says I have no right to be so car-happy because I drive an auto. And this comes from an idiot who drives an 82 toyota that's practically falling apart.

P5 rules, and I don't think there's going to be anything that comes close to its combo of beauty and ability any time soon.

You guys are lucky. Here, in montreal, p5 are everywhere. We outnumber the civics :(
 
I used to get head turns all over LSU campus. I still get them, but it's mainly because of this. :(

Theres not too many P5's in my small town and I'm one of the two red P5s in the whole town. Its nice to have a relatively uncommon car as opposed to having a Civic or a Cavalier/Sunfire.

Im gonna get a whole lot more head turns once I get my rims!(p5red)(thumb)
 
Besides the guy down the street from me who owns own, i'm lucky if i see one a month in my area and usually its being driven by a middle-aged person. I love the fact my car is not a cookie cutter car.
 
there are eleventy billion stock ones around here and until I get my CF hood no one really noticed any mods(shrug)
 
after getting that mintblue stuff in.. i feel so good about my p5. it looks so mean now.
i need to boost my car, cause i am never selling it! evar!
 
there r a lot of protege sedans in my area, mostly driven by old people, but i don't care, i still love my car
 
They're all in Florida! Orlando is saturated. I see at least 2-5 a day. Kinda sucsk, but I have the best in my area, so it's all good I guess :D

i think you may be right. when i visited orlando last year, i saw 3 p5s in the parking lot at epcot center (disney world)

the only other time i see 3 other p5s in the same parking lot is when we have mini meets at kens house (captain krm p5)
 
there's a bunch in miami, and a lot of them are yellow :-\ but none have yellow rims =D

i think i might just have the fastest one unless there's someone on here from miami that might challange that (enguard)


anywho, am i the only one who grins when you see the reflection of your P5 in another car, or who grins when you see the curves of your P5 on the side mirrors when you're looking to change lanes?

man, this car is great!

i'm sorry my friend, but i'm the fastest....i wish, and i also get next to suv and just look at my car, really cool with the wheels spinning and car bouncing
 
Hey seeing a 2-5 P5's a day ain't bad guys, cause I'm sure I will see 10x more seeing civics, and accords driving around in a 12 hour period. At my work there is a silver p5, to bad an older lady drives it. Other than that silver p5 I rarely see one. Maybe once or twice a week I'll see another p5 but it'll be a different person each time.

The people that usually comment on my car thinks my car is an expensive model, and always asks when did Mazda start making them. I always tell them mazda stopped production a while ago. People always get a kick when I tell them my cars 2 years old, cause it's almost always shinny, its a black car after all so I wash and wax the girl once a week. So hard to keep a black car looking clean.
