1994 Mazda Protege DX review from North America
"Reliable, economical, fun little car!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing so far has gone wrong. I did have to do a few things after I purchased it though, but they were very minor. I replaced a turn signal bulb, interior dome light bulb, and replaced the windshield wipers.
General comments?
This car is very easy on gas (34 mpg on highway!).
Driver's seat isn't the most comfortable.
Cup holders are in an inconvenient location below the radio. Hard to tune in another radio station with a bottle of soda blocking your way!
Picked the car up from a dealer on the east coast and drove 1,400 miles home without ANY issues!!
