Sport Compact Car Magazine

Why don't we ever see any articles on our P5's in any Sport Car magazines?
It's definetely much nicer looking than the Subaru WRX that's getting so much attention.

probably because there is a huge market for the WRX, and it is more of a sports car than the P5. Occasionally I do see an advertiser using the P5 as a show car in their little ads within the pages of the magazines. I think they are trying to show people that this car is out there. I kind of like how our car is more on the outside though. I like not seeing about 20 P5s on the way home, like I do the WRX, (and now I see about million Honda Elements..)Anyway, as long as you like your car, thats all that should matter. Peace out

Check this month Turbo mag. They got a red P5, they put some DG Motorsports downforcers, a ram-air hood. Its cool to see it in magazines, but this is Turbo mag, where the **** is the turbo!

I agree, the P5 should be shown more. It is a TUNER car!

There was a pretty sweet article in this months sport compact car about tokyo. And there was a pretty good article on the RX-8 as well.

Also, there very first ad in the front cover was for a protege ES.

But it would be pretty sweet to see a protege5 project car

i think the wrx just has more potential for HP compared to our car. dont get me wrong i love my p5, but i see much more attention on the wrx compared to the p5 in japan. -chris

Ask and you shall receive.

http://www.wheels.ca is a Canadian mag. They've got a P5 Project being modded out.

They've also got a contest for CANADIANS to win that Project car.

This reminds me when I bought my P5 I was actually looking at the Mazda6 when I realized for that kind of money I could by a stock WRX. Not too mention my credit restricted me to buying anything over $20k. I'm glad I bought the P5 now especially after the Rev It Up. I found the Mazda 6 not as fun to drive as the P5.

I hope I didn't offend any of my Mazda6 brothers and sisters.

the wrx is uuuuugggly!!!(lol)
it looks like a frog...hmmmm reminds me bit of the neon.

dont get me wrong , it's a good car underneath the ugly shell but for the $$$$$$$$ i'd rather drive something more attractive.
anyone who likes the look of the wrx probably thinks that the camry is a hot looker as well!!

im glad that i dont see a lot of p5's in ad's or mag's
because then are car's would'nt be different.
i like the fact i dont see 5 to 10 fixed up p5's everyday driving around town. i got this car knowing it would be different not like all the honda's on the road. i do wish we had some more aftermaket support but...hey you cant have you cake and eat it to. you just have to do some work to find part's

It's too bad we can't actually see the project car on their website. All it does is give a list of the suppliers
