Bought a 02 Protege5 today.
 

Just wanted to put a short introduction out there. Just picked up the car this morning after tradeing in my 00 Solara SE. The charm of owning a large coupe that couldn't fit anything finally wore off and I was in the market for a wagon. Was down to the WRX and the mazda, Mazda just fill the money side of things better.

Car looks be stock, no signs of mods being removed either. Manual, no options really. Did they come with the remote entry key fob standard? Mine is missing that, will try and sort that out in the next few months.

Past car history was a 90 Dodge Daytona Shelby and a 90 VW Corrado G60, so it's nice to be back in a "swift" car again.

Look forwards to being part of the community.

welcome to the forum. ...planning for any mods anytime soon?

also, post some pics of the Honda, i would like to see that, since i will be purchasing one this summer.

Haha, I always end up with white cars somehow. I always swear off owning another one too.....and never follow through with it. But this time no white rims.

I'm a gearhead, do all my own work. But since I got into bikes my attention has shifted away from cars. Now I just look for a nice car that is reliable.

very nice, and welcome.

nice :bt:

I am a bike guy, too. Love that black and red Kawasaki. Welcome to the club.

Welcome to the {BWC}...Brotherhood of White Cars.....
Nice looking P5 too!

beutiful car

Thanks. I'm still getting used to the idea that it's mine. Keep walking outside wondering where my old car is.

then you look and BAMMM.. "oh shit,, thats my car? i better take that matha for a drive!!!"

i know id be happy as hell if i baught a new car..

and for an old kawasaki... :tear: its like the world is still in 80's... well maintained :bt:

Nice cars and bikes, I also love both, have a YZ125 right now and planning on an R-6 sometime soon.

Welcome!

Welcome to the club. I kinda wish I got a white one. Nice bikes too...a Dayton 650 is in my future...as soon as I but a pos to learn on.

Go find a suzuki SV650 to learn on, great bikes, and cheap! Also hit www.msf-usa.org and see where a local class would be. Thats the best way to start learning, even before you get a bike.

And, you won't get tired of the SV650 after a few months of riding experience... it is a lot of fun in the twisties and reasonably quick, too. It's not really a starter's bike, but it is docile enough for a novice.

This is one of the bikes that has been on my "must own" list for a while...
