I think they look really kewl, but regardless of looks, it's still a Mazda. They didn't even beef up the engine at all, so it's still as slow as any other Protege
oh ok...
the MP3 is geared at a sporty crowd.. HOWEVER, they didn't upgrade the engine over the base ES much. Its more show than go as its the first car to include an MP3 player..
However, there will be more mods coming out for it shortly, or if you wish, you can get a Jap turbo engine with 170HP for about $1500. Someone on ProtegeTech was doing it... that car was looking sweet...
However, the Protege regularly is at the top of all small car reviews flipflopping with the Sentra.. While the Sentra SE will beat the Protege ES, I find the Sentra GXE equal if not slighlty slower than the Protege ES. However, the Protege has 100% more room inside and comfort than the Sentra...
That's why we bought the protege.. NO ONE would fit in the back seat of the Sentra...
