    Default Which car drives better?

    Mazda3 or the Protege5. I'm thinking about getting rid of my p/u truck and get one of these as a dd. I always loved the P5 because it looked like it got a body kit but it;s stock. The Mazda3 is so sexy with her curvature hips. :boobies:

    The 3 handles better and why not just get the 5 door 3?

    But since I didn't add any input earlier:

    The new 3's are sooo much fun to drive. They handle GREAT from the factory. I was actually debating getting a 5 door 3 when I wrecked my Mach1. Very reasonably priced new as well.

    Thanks for learning to write above a third grade level. That kind of stupidity is why threads get off topic.

    We had a regular '04 Mazda3 5speed before we got out 08 Mazdaspeed3, and even the regular Mazda3 was great! It was also the 5-door, had good power, great mpg, handled great, and could haul a LOT of stuff. Just last week, I filled the Mazdaspeed3 with a Miata roll bar (in the box), a pair of wheels and tires, two race seats, and some other misc parts. I drove all that stuff down to Orlando without any problems.

    Thanks Scott and CCR for keeping it on track. Scott how's the Mirage going? I should've brought the Mazda instead of the truck I missed comfort and stick. My truck is a 04 Tacoma single cab. So for me it can haul stuff in the back but how many times I do just that. I drove it down to Fla. last summer and it was ok but when I wanted to take a nap it wasn't good. My body style is the hatch on any one of these vehicle not the sedans, cause I own two sedans as we speak.
