2002 Mazda Protege LX review from North America
"It's a beautiful ride"
General comments?
I had no plans to buy the Mazda Protege. I was pretty close to buying a Nissan Sentra. The dealer I went to wanted to see the Protege. So said why not. The car was much more room than the Nissan. When I asked how much the LX would cost. I was told $3,000 cheaper than the Sentra. I have everything included with the package except the spoiler which is only on the higher model. I received the moon-roof free. I have ADS Brakes, Alloy Wheels and a great sound system. I made no mistake in my choice. I love my Mazda Protege.
