Talking Got my NEW 2002 DX today!

Hey all,
I've been driving my new DX around all day and lovin it so far.
DX models with just air and CD don't sound like much, but the power steering alone is a huge jump from my '88 Civic, which was basically four wheels and and engine. Anyway, I'm looking forward to adding some mods and gettin in on some discussions here.

Welcome. I think that alone will make you realize the beauty of the Protege. The steering / handling are awesome all the way from the DX to the ES / P5.

Congrats on your purchase!

AHHHH. Back in '91 I got my DX. 185k miles and 11 years later I still had it. Original shocks and clutch were still good! The beauty was the lack of power anything (except stearing), so nothing to go wrong. Have fun. I just upgraded top an ES, but I will always remember my first new car. I named him Hiroshi.
