this is my second protege, i used to drive '00 protege touring edition.
i would buy the p5 again, it's an excellent all around car.
but the 3 is good too . i would be very tempted to buy it...so i would have to test drive both and choose between the two...
i would definately stay within the mazda family. (2thumbs)

I'm glad I got the MSP. The gas mileage could be better, but it feels much more solid than my old B13 Sentra. The Sentra ran like a champ 10 years, and could probably go another 5+, but the MSP should serve me well for a long time. It's definitely the most entertaining commuter car I've ever had - if you're going to be stuck in a car for 2 hours a day, it might as well be one you like.
...But if I could have found a 323 GTX in mint stock condition, I'd get that in a heartbeat!

Why we bought ours
Needed more room (kindof hard putting your best friends in backseat of a Trans Am
Good on gas
Different looking (we have got many compliments on the color and the bodystyle)
Handles like its on rails
Cons
needs about 30 to 50 more hp
thats it

You bettcha! For the $$ I had available at the time my '89 Civic died on the roadside. Looked at and test drove the Corolla S and a couple Honda's. I picked my LX up one year ago tomorrow. Wanted a WRX but couldn't afford the MSP either. The Zoom Zoom comercials were everywhere back then. Only regret is I should have gotten the P5 for the times I have to more company computer gear around; would easier than a trunk or back seat cushions. And I should have gotten better tires on day two. We probably have more fun driving around than a supercar owner. We can use all of our performance during daily driving.

ok she is back, just looking for some new ones. Thanks guys for all the responses. I include the sedan as well as the wagon. Just trying to decide if i should scoop one up at the dealer. They have really knocked down the prices to clear them out. Not many left, time running outCoqui258 said:

Maybe, be nice to have a mazda by then. Hate to show up in her SUV
ive had my car for over a year now. and the only thing im not really happy with is the amount of power it has.but that is partially my fault for buying an automatic. if i had it all to do again. yes i prolly would have bought the p5.. i still love how people look at it and wonder what it is.. i also like that for every 5 honda civics i see.. i see maybe 1 p5.. -=P

im with mypfizzle, theres still a lot of hondas compared to p5's and i would do it again, maybe get a different color, 1st choice was vivid yellow and they came out with laser blue, would have gotten laser blue...definately would do it again...
Sorry to go off topic but I was wondering I want to trade in my P5 and get an MSP, what do you think they will give me for the trade in? my car has 11k miles on it. And how much are the 2003 MSP's and the 2003.5 MSP and what different about the too? Thanks for the info. Sorry for the threadjack I'am just regreting getting an auto 
.Everyday I drive the car and I want a stick and the MSP looks so sweet since they have soo much stuff the P5 does'nt get. I have to get the MSP soon before my P5 is worth nothing.
