I agree with you - looks to much like a Vibe and the Nissan Murano (which I like much better than the Vibe) :(

and you have the Acura RSX and Mustang to name a few more - but 2+2's really should not be useless rear seats for adults. My 1990 Probe had pretty good back seats, as long as you weren't over 6 feet tall and hit a speed bump ... ouch sorry about that bump on the head Rick, hope you've forgiven...

Those of you have someting to say, please do! I've already done it twice! I want to see a fastback/hatchback 2+2 coupe made! :D

No, but you have at least 2 guys that are over 40 ... and you could also include my wife when she takes it over during the weekends and I get stuck with our 2000 Passat plus the 2 kids in their car-seats ... Hi, I'm Joel and my black MP5 is about 2.5 months old. My 5 year old daughter was...

I remember reading somewhere that Mazda was worried about their lack of idenity and felt that if their car names were (for example) the "Mazda6" or "Mazda3" ... then most people would remember that those cars were "Mazda" cars ... and not something else ... ...Really! I'm serious! ... really!

Yeah, I'm an other one who did a Google searh for a Protege5 forum. I've already been spending alot of time at the RX-8 forum ... but I'm doing my best to catch up to ... here :D

True. :) But as I remember it, I lived in LA for 15 years (Downtown for 5) and Laguna Nigeul for 5, depening on what neighborhood or freeway that you might drive on --- you just have to watch out for those drive-by shootings! ;)

Oh, I'm still waiting for the day that I find something that comes close or surpasses my 1990 Probe as my benchmark to compare for my next car ... I'm hoping that the RX-8 (Ive been planning on getting it, since I saw the Mazda RX-Evolve concept car back in 1999) will do it for me and I can...

Wow, bad luck. :( When I read your post, it almost made me cry - but I to share a thing for those early Probes ... :D

I also live in the Dallas/Flower Mound area and luckly for me my MP5 was in the garage, but my wife was out in Southlake, watching my daughter in a play and her 2000 Passat got hit pretty bad ... (I'm glad that it was my turn to take the shift to stay at home with my 2 year old son).

Re: Yo Grimace... I actually don't mind the rear wing - it's the rest of the car's "looks" that I'm (personally) not crazy about! ... IMHO, after seeing the ION, I much perfere last years Saturn SC2 looks ... :(

Try a can of any "anti-static cling spray" found at your local grocery store- it works! :D My vote is for "cloth" too, I like it for all of the reasons already stated. I have found that leather gets to hot in the summer and feels to cold in the winter (although on my wife's Passat, which has...

Thanks for all the leads and recommendations on all of the aftermarket gages! Now, if I plan on keeping my MP5 and don't trade-up for a RX-8 in a few years ... I know what I'll be buying! :D

I completely agree with you! :D Id really like to see a complete fully functional gage display pack that clearly and accurately shows the normal and abnormal state of things with regards to: engine temperature, voltage/battery and oil pressure either as an analog or else some kind of digital...

I hope it's not, also. ... Well what attracted me to the MP5 was the versatility that is offered if I need to carry large stuff ... :D ... like when I was your age and use to be in a band and had to haul my big old Fender Bandmaster 200 watt tube amp and electic keyboard around to our gigs...

... yeah, me too! and yes, I truly miss those MX6/Probes - I had a 1990 Probe for almost 13 years (didn't want to part with it, but was car #4 in a 6 car acident last January and was totaled out)... and since the RX-8 wasn't out yet and I need a back seat for 2 car seats and like to have a...

I actually like (most) of the looks of the M3. The front end view is almost like the MP5 but has more of the M6 hood lines and I also like the side rear fender flairs --- But I'm not crazy about the way the side window and pillar resemble the Vibe and the Nissan Murano (which I actully do like)...

I'd love to see a 2+2 fastback/hatchback Mazda3 at some future date! :D
