Thats why you need two cars, like me

. My 10AE Miata#1946 with six speeds and my Protege5 with five speeds.

I love my car, only thing I'm upset about is the fact that I got screwed with the '99 Touring Edition, and didn't get my sunroof with it.

Samuel--do you have the moon roof? If so, I'd recommend the wind deflector. It makes a world of difference. There's still some wind noise, but it's much reduced.

I took off the roof racks and it made a world of difference. They generated quite a bit of noise.

RegretS?

I LOVE MY P5....

At first I wuz thinking that i wanted an Integra or Civic Si or something like that, but it seemed so... PLAYED OUT... then I came across the P5 and I wuz like ... "dang"

this is a SiK car. Once i test drove it I bought it and still love this car .... definitely no regrets... If there wuz any complaint/regrets I have is that i didnt find this car faster!
