Dressed up nicely, they don't look too bad.
Still no comparison to the look of the new 3 though.

My mom's got one, it rocks :)





Hopefully you didn't get the automatic tranny, because it's quite possibly the slowest car I've ever driven with the auto. :o

Clearly a matter of opinion.

I MUCH prefer the look of the Protege5 over the new 3.

I really love my Yellow P5! And I get 32 mpg!

Great little car that P5, had one (Same colour) for 2 years of a 4 year lease and just gave it back for an 8. I really put that car through it's paces, it was stock and I drove the hell out of it, handles great for the type of car! Was alot of fun!

Yes, it really is surprising how good the P5 handles!

Nice Protege5. I'm a fellow Protege5 owner myself. A 2002, Sunlight Silver 5 speed. Can carry all my junk, and still take corners double what is suggested. :D
