My wife and I just bought a 2002 Protege5 about 3 months ago. It is a really nice car, inside and out. The only thing lacking is power for acceleration. Once she is on the highway, she can do 85+ no problem and acceleration to 100 is not that big of a deal. It is just the 0-60 and 1/4 mile acceleration that is hurting.
But as you know, the handling on the car is superb. I cant wait to get a chance to take it on some of my favorite twisty roads i usually take my Cougar on.
