CAR & DRIVER rate Protege5:#1.....

Check out the June 2002 issue of CAR & DRIVER Magazine, they have a COMPARISON TEST between: the PT Cruiser, Ford Focus ZX5, Toyota Matrix, Pontac Vibe, Suzuki Aero SX and the Mazda Protege5 models.

And the WINNER is: The MADZA PROTEGE 5 !!!!!

The article is 10 pages long and has some excellent spec's to compare.

REQUIRED READING

Later, Speedbump

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.
