323 Familia

[ghost]

This is what we missed out on here in the states, I can't think of why mazda would forget us in these earlier versions of the 323f(protege5)especially when they came in 6 cyl!!!

 

[ghost]

here is more

 

[I_Vtec]

WOW 6 cyl.

 

[ghost]

Yea I think that second one is BADASS! I wonder how much it would cost to get one brought here to the states.

How early is this model, because it has two different mazda logos on it. The old style in the front and the new in the back.

 

[ghost]

I think they are from the first one is a 94 and the second is a 96 model.

 

[Familia323]

So are they good engines? and are they rwd or fwd? if they are rwd then thats really bad ass!

 

[ghost]

They are AWD!!!!

 

[Familia323]

There was a 323S or something like that, basically the 323F Neo, that was in Canada for '95, 2-door, VERY sleek looking, very rare. Also, there were a few V6 models that came to Canada as test cars for cold climates.

BTW, you can get a first gen and put in a KL-ZE V6 for not TOO hard

VERY SWEET. Sometimes you have to ask yourself why in the hell do car companies keep some cars from us. Take the WRX STI and the EVO, they would have been doing killer sales for years, and they just now brought them over.

True, but think about the popularity boom of import cars over the last 5 years. 5 years ago most americans didnt even recognize subaru as a nice quality car.

Sweet looking cars, I noticed the logo thing too. Too bad we didn't see that in the US, but if we did would we have seen our P5's? dun, dun... duna (dramatic effect).

You know, if you're TDY for more than 30 days overseas, the Gov't will pay to have your car shipped back to the states.

[JOS3]

wow, that second one is sweet.

6cyl, awd? i hope mazda is reading this becasue if they are planning on a mazdaspeed 3, those are 2 great qualities to start out with.

i hate it how companies think that if you slap a turbo on a 4 cyl, everyone will buy it. thats BS. i would take an NA 6cyl mazdaspeed 3 over a turboed 4 anyday. thats just me though

 

[Fallout323f]

no there only 2 WD.

 

[Fallout323f]

this is mine.

 

[dosle]

cool

6 cylinders with 2liters and 144hp are weird :
