2003 Mazda Protege LX review from North America
"A reliable zippy bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Mazda name and logo on back of car has a rust on it already (3 months, 7,000 miles)
General comments?
Very zippy car, much more than I had imagined.
Handles very well.
Shifting is very smooth, its hard to not shift well.
Plenty of room and comfortable seating.
Great Stereo and speakers.
Good gas mileage, about 30 miles per gallon.
Fun to drive!
