i have never seen this article myself and don't remember anybody posting it so here it is for your enjoyment. basically a review of the 2002 p5 by somebody who thinks our sun is a big honda sign and the the world revolves around honda.

That guy is in love with Hondas and anti-lock brakes. Almost half the review talked about the history of the civic.

And why would it be a bad thing that anti-lock brakes are optional. Some people don't like them. And at least you can get them as an option on any trim level, unlike a civic.

 

what's funny is that he says this in the review:

"This mini-tirade is a way of saying you probably won't read many enthusiastic words about the Mazda Protegé5 in the mainstream automobile magazines."

but most of the things that I have seen in any of them are really positive about the car

 

Yeah, he does have a slight preoccupation about the civic but over all he is quite positive and honest about the car. One of the better reports I have seen. Unlike the last one where the guy whines about the volume of the muffler.
Stocker.

 

im sorry.. you cant compare the two.... a civic and a P5... 2 totally different cars.... P5 is more roomier and handles better that the civic.... and it doesnt look like ****.

 

Man, are you guys hard to please or what?!! This guy gives a rather glowing review of the P5 with a few minor complaints, and all of a sudden it's a Mazda vs. Honda fight. Some people, jeez...
