2002 Mazda Protege ES 5 spd gone, now have Mazda 3 S Sport 6 manual
 

This forum has been very helpful for me. I enjoyed my 02 Mazda Protege ES 5spd and miss it's small size and precise handling.

I now have a 2010 Mazda 3 S Sport 6 manual. I love the additional power the 2.5 has, the 6th gear and under 3,000 RPM at 70 mph, improved ride quality and comfort. It's a much bigger and heavier car. Less nimble in town much better on the highways where I spend a lot of time.

Just wanted to let you know I'm going to be focusing on Mazda 3 info now.
