right ... well this post was not meant to bash the design, idea etc . I put the pics up to get some hits. I'm more looking for solid info. Mosty know that we know that sedan pictures are not avialable, when will they be? When can we expect the sedans to be released. Like I said earlier nissan already has 04 models out and mazda has not ever released pictures. I'm starting to wonder if the sedan will be released as an 04 at all. ???

aaaarrrrrrrrrrgggggggggg...does it **** anyone else off that they are discontinuing our car after only two years of production (i didnt splurge on a new car for the first time ever to have an outdated style and non-production car)...i just find the fact that this incredibly successful model for mazda is being ditched already is kind of...well stupid, i guess its obvious that ford owns mazda now...

im so incredibly pissed about this that im seriously considering selling my car...god damned abovreiajlkfshdg padrhgwre hskdvddnvjkash

alright sorry rant over

yeah but your car will be unique. you dont want your protege to become like honda civic do you?

but it sure doesnt make sense for the company to do that....look at cavalier. the newer version came out in '94 and it basically is still the same car, it's selling well and making gm good money

The protege5 was already out overseas for longer. So only in the US market did it last so short. Toobad there's no Mazdaspeed Protege5

Soon P5 is mine

i stumbled on this while looking for some mazda sites. this video is not official but it shows some similarities to the pictures in this thread. i think presonally this car is ugly as F**K and this gives me another reason to get a p5 QUICK!!!. look for yourself.

I don't think it is as high roofed as it appears to be. It has a little Alfa Romeo in the design. I like it...looks muscular, but not too rounded. I certainly like it better than the few pictures of the new 3 sedan. (if they were accurate)

I think they look pretty cool. but does anyone agree with me that they look a whole lot like the new infiniti fx35 and fx45? Could be just me but o well.

what pictures of the 3 sedan? could you post them please?

KHH

Negatize had posted a picture of a sedan some months ago. I searched for the post, but the pictures are no longer hosted. Might try PM'ing him to see if he still has them...

It looked like a Jetta

thanks for trying ... it;s weird mazda has not released official photos of the sedan by now.

Farsyde

maybe they're in denial

phat_mats

haha maybe ... I mean how long can it be before these things hit showrooms ... october/november at latest. you'd think we would have heard/seen something by now. Or am I crazy?

I am interested to see what the sesale value of the p5 will be like once this new model comes out ...

phat_mats

yeah resale will obviously go down ... shitty if you wanna buy out at the end of your lease becasue it will probably be no where near the same value ... anyway still awaiting those sedan pics ... back to the top ... late night bump ... etc

I recently read on the paper that Mazda 3 MPS is gonna to be released 2005 . That car is going to have 2L engine w/ turbo. Let's see if this is true...
