now that's what i like to hear :)

truely kick ass, as always car and driver goes for the best car! lol the one i own :D

but i have the article too..... if everyone else wants to see it, it is on car and drivers website at www.caranddriver.com

to me ZX5 and Pro5 are two best cars out of that bunch, and P5 may get my final vote only because it is build in Japan and ZX5 is just slopped by Ford N.America.

KILL #3 For PROTEGE
 

Yeah! ;) The Protege has won three times, one review of small
economy cars in Summer of 2000, The MP3 won the sport compact
catagory in Fall 2001, and now the P5 won. proteges kick ass
