Finally took the plunge...
And am I glad I did. Just purchased a Brand new 2002.5 Protege 5, Sunlight Silver. Was going to get Pure White, but wife made that decision. The X-plan pricing (from another forum) came in real handy. they didn't even ask for a PIN and gave me the car at just under invoice plus gave me the $750 rebate. Not a bad deal. The car is a 5spd, options are moonroof, ABS/side air bags. Can't wait to get started on the mods. Step 1. Window tinting.
Hopefully I will be able contribute a little more to the forum, now that I am a member of the brotherhood.

Re: X-Plan Pricing???
Dude, I am trying to find out where I saw the post with the information. If I find it I will let you know. Also, many companies and institutions are eligible for this plan, check with your employer or school.
Basically the s-plan pricing is a little less than invoice. When I went in, I told them that I had just applied (faxed the paperwork Wed, received email today with PIN) for the friends and neighbors part of the X-plan (S-plan for Mazda). They had no problem showing the paperwork that showed the Invoice and the S-plan. On the car I wanted the s-plan was only $3, less than invoice. But, using the S-plan, you can still use the rebate of $750. So basically, I got it for $750 under invoice. When I was dealing I was working a deal on a White one and then switched to Silver. Silver and Yellow are the 2 highest sellers and they usually don't S-plan those. But he gave it to me cause we already had a deal worked out. So, in the end I paid ~16K for my Silver P5 with Sunroof and ABS/Side air bags. Not too bad, at least I think.
