dang good idea about the 3 headlights! i bet with a litle body mod i could fit those on custom! oh yeah... that would look hot!!
 
please stop calling the mazda3 an M3. It is no such thing as the M3 already exists. Calling the Protege5 a P5 is a little more accepted cause there really wasn't another car named P5 already.

I don't give a sh_t about that.
Everybody else I know are calling M2, M3 and M6 for Mazda2, Mazda3 and Mazda6. Who gives a s*** beside those bmw owner.
 
i hate wen ppl ask me that question " if u had the chance to get the 3 at the time would u?" the answer in NO, because for the same loot i could've got sumthin better, and plus the 5 has a better look to it and it has none of the problems the new 3's have. i luv my p5!
 
To each his own...let's realize WE ARE ALL IN THE SAME BOAT...we are Mazda enthusiasts...enough of these playground antics...I'm going to close this thread if it becomes anymore pointless...
 
Antoine, this thread was pointless as soon as it was posted in the P5 section...

But thanks for seeing things our way (the Mazda way) lol

Come on! We are just fooling around here, don't take it too series.
I will be glad to have a M3 anyday.
I just love both.(rockon)

Also the P5 has a go-kart driving feel that the M3 can't give you. I think you only get the same go-kart driving feeling in either a MR-2 or a Lotus Elise.
No other sedan/wagon can give you such feeling.

I'll agree with you on hte sedan/wagon thing, with two possible exceptions,
the MP3 and the MSP, but that's an assumption on my part because I haven't
actually driven either.

As for the MR2, I haven't driven the spider, but the early 90's version of the
MR2 had a bad problem with pushing through turns. IMHO when I had mine,
it didn't have enough weight on the front wheels to keep grip on the tires.
Engine also fealt a bit weak, but I didn't have the turbo so that's probably
part of it.

However, If you want a car with true "go-cart" feel, mid-late 80's Pontiac
Fiero GT. That thing WAS a go-cart, and if you could keep it from spinning,
it actually cornered pretty well (probably because it was 3500lbs).
I had an '85 and with the exception of my P5 and the possible exception of
my Prelude before it, it's was the best handling car Ive driven under $18k.
Unfortunately, at ~160hp, as heavy as it was, it could have used some more pep.
