Ouch - that sucks! (Assuming) Glad you're fine!
[OT] Did you know that all Proteges since 2nd Gen on have actually had something like rear-steering? The trailing end-links on the twin-trapezoidal arms - or some such BS - turns the rear wheels to retain tire better contact patch!

Hey Jay -
Is everyone ok? Need anything? (Within reason
)
Is everyone ok? Need anything? (Within reason
)Of course, not gonna give up that baby.
I was looking at getting a 3S but Mazda dealers wouldn't cut me a deal so F them! I went to 3 Mazda dealers but none of them would offer me a good one.
I was looking at this 3S with leather seats, moonroof & 6 in-dash, sport package, ABS & side curtain.
1. Brown's Fairfax.
- Has the car.
- I offered $18.5K and even offered $19K.
- They wanted $19.5K.
- Them being stingy I looked at the other dealers.
2. Roshental Arlington.
- Has same car but w/out ABS & side curtain but has rear lip spoiler.
- I offered $17.5K.
- They wanted $18.5K.
- They offered again for $18.2K.
- When I was about to close it, this George manager backed out because apparently the manager who offered me $18.2K doesn't work there no more. Bad business! They should honor it to begin with. Now he's calling trying to find out if I'm still interested and I told him with that price I can get an Accord EX and he was like "Then go get an Accord." What kind of professionalism is that? Bad bad bad business!
3. Rosenthal Tyson's.
- Same car as Brown's but not in stock they said can get it from other dealer.
- They wanted $19.8K. Ha, ha! I offered $18.5K.
- They went down to $19.3K. I offered $19K. They won't bite.
- Then I crossed the lot to Honda's and got the Accord EX.
- Funny the guy I talked to at Mazda saw me driving the Accord. Today he called and said "Come in I have a good news for you!" Too late for that now. Ha, ha!
I thought I offered reasonable prices and even well over. I heard all excuses why they couldn't make me a good deal from "keeping up with utilities such as cleaning and mainting the car" - which I don't give a **** anyway. "Supply and demand" - I can count with my one hand how many 3's I see in a day, if it's a Honda then I would believe that. They couldn't even sell them coz the price is too steep for a compact car. I like it and I think it's good but the it's over priced.

EX is not v6. sorry about the ES, hope your bro is ok. IMO, I'd go for the V6 or no accord at all.
protegeV said:nice...I was actually considering one of those at the time I got my P5
i definitely made the right choice...good luck with yours though
is it a V6?
DX is 4cyl only...BlueWolfCry said:
LX and EX you can get I4 or V6, the EX V6 being the most expensive trim level
just so i dont need to repeat myself here's a link...
