2003 Mazda Protege5 review

Best budget daily sports wagon

October 9, 2022
By Sam from North bend, WS
Owns this car

Bought mine a while ago and it’s been nothing but fun. It may not be fast, but it feels like it’s on rails in tight turns. The interior is nothing to write home about, but Mazda isn’t trying to disguise the interior as expensive. Reliability wise it has never failed to start. The bucket seats are comfortable and adjustable in all the right places.
