hi im dont know anything at all about mazdas and i was just wondering didnt all mp3s come turbo'd? and im here to learn more about them because i might be considering purchasing one in next 2 months
 
mp3s were sold in 2001 and had an upgraded suspension, exterior, audio system, computer and exhaust. mazdaspeed proteges were sold in 2003 and were - for all simplicity's sake - mp3s with turbo systems installed on them.
 
did the turbo make much of a difference and whats the difference in price range from the turbo model and regular one

Pretty simple....

2001 - Mazda Protege MP3 - Juiced up suspension, audio and interior with new wheels

2003 - Mazdaspeed Protege - MP3 with a T25 turbo, and different rims

2003.5 - Mazdaspeed Protege - Same damn thing as the 03 just different color options, different underbody skirts, darker rims, and different shape wing, and different stiching on the interior a little

what the price range on the 03-03.5

my car as it stands with 34xxx miles on it is blue booked at $15.3 private...dealer not even gonna mention, i would never reccomend buying used from a dealer when you could go private and find a car covered by factory

i was just on autotrader trying to find some in my area but i was wondering what a protege5 is?

lol Add a rear Hatch onto a Protege (not MP3 of MSP) you got yourself a Protege5...In my opinion those look sick tricked out
 
oh the wagon no thanks i found two in my area but there both auto so i dont know i guess ill just wait until im ready to buy nvm they werent even mp3s
 
dont have my liscense yet i get it in december so no use in buying it so soon why buy it if i cant enjoy it
 
for your first car you should really get something that can be wrecked because most people start off as bad drivers....
 
ive already had a first car and i hit a mailbox got my liscense suspended and i been driving the wrecked civic for a couple months now so i could say i have improved as far as driving
