Interior Room
How much more Interior room do the 3's/6's have than the protege? - fixing to be a family of 5 (on Feb 5th) - might be some changes to the car lineup here @ home! - I wanna stick w/ a car (no vans!...)
or.. in other words, will 3 kids fit better in a 3/6? |
From what I've seen the 3s don't have much more room than the Protege, but I will admit that I fit 7 people into my P5 this weekend (but I would never recommend doing that again, especially with your kids). But the 6s on the other hand seem to at least have a significant amount more leg room in the back than the other two, so I'm gonna say that the 6 is gonna be your car of choice here.
P.S.: How about a Mazda5, or is that too mini-van like? |
My wife hates those! (too mini-van like :) )
Just look'n @ some options... would need to fit 2 booster seats/carseat - will probably just discuss w/ wife, and if nothing else, go to the local dealership... see if they will fit |

I'm not taking responsibility of another kid!!! :Kill1: congrats Barry. The 3S was much roomier than my previous P5. I really enjoyed the 3S a lot and wouldn't hesitate to buy another one. |
that is what i'm leaning towardz
hmm.. maybe.. just maybe... speed3 @ local dealer is listed @ 22.5k - talk 'em down... sell my car... (wont get crap for trade-in.. it hit the big 0's) yep.. 2 boys and a girl now! |
speed3 would be too much temptation for me....although it'll look hella cool at our cheaha meet!
If you need room for car seats and stuff I suggest a 6i with the 5spd. When the time comes you want to mod it you can just buy some rods and the hiboost kit and make yourself 508whp. There's a local 6S guy here talking smack to me....he claims to have a turbocharged 3.0L making 400whp. I told him to bring his checkbook. With 400whp through a FWD open differential tranny I'm not worried one bit about racing him from 0-100mph. |
i find that the 3's dont have much rear leg room at all.
im also about 6 foot, and my dad is just past that, and im kinda cramped when i sit in the back (which isnt too often, cuz i drive the car 99% of the time) |
speed3 would we sweet... doubt the wife would go for that... shes look'n towards a mazda tribute... (she likes the cx-7, but too expensive)
family car w/ 500 @ the wheels - walmart & back in 6 seconds flat! |
Yeah, the 3's rear leg room is rather sad....
|
yeah, but it doesnt bother me!!
cuz im always driving!! |
yah, i would always be the one driving... Might just keep the cars we got (cheapest way out...) borrow the honda odyssey if we need the room - probably will not be going many places w/ all 3 kids @ once.
