I haven't been here in a good lil while. Work has been keeping me busy.
I got a new car today, a 2002 MAZDA Protege5. I am happy with it.
Anyone have one of these? know anything I should know? warn me about anything?

I love the Protege5. The new Mazda3 which replaces the Protege isn't bad, but I think the Protege5 had much nicer lines.
I don't know where you're located, but I did this yesterday it it was fun, fun, fun:

I am in southern California, USA.
I saw this ad in the OCWEEKLY paper. It looks like fun. You going?
The new mazda3 is too matrix/focusish for me. I have loved the protege5 since I first saw the commercial where it was compared to a skateboard. I'm happy to finally have it.

This is what I just got a few months ago.

malediction, i'm up in northern cal. and they held their event here yesterday. it was a lot of fun, and definitely worth the $. if for no other reason than to fling someone else's car around in a controlled environment.

my car just got towed last night, so my advice is be careful where you park.

I wish I earned that kind of money tho.. :/

I've had my last car towed twice. Once for parking when there was supposed to be street sweeping (oops) and once when I was pulled over for expired registration (big oops.)

By the time I was ready to try the other cars the lines were too long... I really wanted to try the MazdaSpeed Miata - 190HP and turbo!

this is the second time mine was towed as well. such a pain in the ass.

the last time was horrible!
I was on my way to pick up my lil bro and bring him over to my place to hang out for the weekend like a nice big brother should. I was halfway there and I saw the red lights. it got towed, i was without a car for 4-5 days. I paid almost $1200 total to get everything cleared up. then the next week I took it to Azusa to go off roading and got it stuck in the middle of a river and seized the motor. now i have a 1500 lb paperweight.
