2000 Mazda Protege ES review from North America
"Excellent product for the money!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to replace 1 Firestone tire early.
Had to replace wiper early.
General comments?
Seats are a little uncomfortable on long trips. Car handles well in turns and drives nicely on highway. Back seats have even worse comfort, but hey, my kids are back there. Very dependable and very nice looking car.
