2002 Mazda Protege 5 Vivid Yellow Custom Leather 5 Speed Manual on 2040-cars
Saint Louis, Missouri, United States
|
"My Bee" has been a wonderful car for my wife for the past 5 years and has given us no mechanical problems. We are the second owners. The exceptional condition of this gas sipping 4 cylinder wagon will please it's next owner. It has a smooth shifting 5 speed manual transmission, front wheel drive, power steering, and has a peppy engine which gets over 30 mpg on the highway. The A/C keeps you cool in the summer and the soft custom black/yellow leather seats will keep you comfortable all year. Custom floor mats and cargo mat were installed to protect the carpets and brighten the interior while matching the soft custom leather seats. A custom fitted plastic cargo tray is included in the sale. Last year we replaced the front and rear brakes with Hawk HPS pads, Stoptech cross drilled rotors, and new braided lines. We replaced all of the struts with new Tokico HP struts and alignment. We also replaced the prior custom wheels with Stinger wheels and Hankook tires. All belts were also replaced at that time. The result is a wagon that handles like a dream without losing comfort and does it quietly. We invested in these items as we were going to keep the car for a long time but a change in jobs has made it necessary to buy a newer, larger, and more expensive wagon for my wife. All of the power options are in operating condition. The C/D changer skips and should be replaced but the stereo radio works fine. The interior door lock switch has moved slightly in it's channel (shown in picture of the interior drivers door) and still operates the locks well. A known problem with the Prot'eg'e is that the headlights (inexpensive) seem to blow out more often than most cars and is true with this Prot'eg'e. They are OK now. The exterior is in exceptional condition with a couple of exceptions. I pictured two small chips in the paint about the size of a pin head. One is on the driver side rear door and the other is on the edge of the driver side front wheel lip. I will touch these up before you buy the car. There is an area where the paint is scratched in front of the passenger front wheel. It is hard to see (even in the pictures in this ad) as most of it is below the visible part of the body. Again this will be touched up before the car is sold. My camera took great pictures but they are too large for ebay and these pictures were taken by my phone and are grainy. Contact me to get better pictures if needed. I am very picky about the looks and functionality of our cars and want to be honest about their condition. You will appreciate the condition of this car and enjoy it for years. Any questions...just give me a ring at 314-359-2002. I have priced it to sell fast so don't hesitate to call with your questions.

2014 Mazda3 Sedan
Wed, 02 Oct 2013Playing Favorites
We're not going to beat around the bush: for the kind of person who willfully chooses to take longer, windier and more scenic routes to get to Point B, the 2014 Mazda3 is the new compact car measuring stick by which others will be judged. That doesn't, of course, make it the right choice for every buyer.
We'll spend the next thousand words or so explaining the whys and hows that make our opening statement a fact, but for now, suffice it to say that Mazda has engineered its latest crop of vehicles - namely the CX-5, Mazda6 and its smaller sibling and subject of this test, the Mazda3 - from the ground up. Absolutely everything about the Mazda3 is refined for 2014, from its chassis to its engines and everything in between, and it was done in a completely new and holistic way. Every component, subcomponent and stamping required to bolt and weld together an automobile was rethought to ensure the Mazda3 has what it takes to compete with such established benchmarks as the Honda Civic and Ford Focus.
2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata configurator fulfills your droptop dreams
Fri, Aug 14 2015The first batch of 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miatas are already at dealers, but Mazda is finally launching a configurator for its completely revised sports car. Even if pricing doesn't come as a surprise, you can still have some fun creating one to your own specific tastes. The major equipment changes on the Miata happen between the Sport, Club, and Grand Touring trims, and options are generally kept light. The real standout is the Brembo/BBS package for $3,400 that's exclusive to the Club version. It adds Gunmetal 17-inch BBS wheels, Brembo front brakes with red calipers, side sill extensions, a rear bumper skirt, and keyless entry. On the Sport and Grand Touring, $1,200 buys the Appearance Package with a front air dam, side sill extensions and rear bumper skirt. There's also keyless tech for $130 on them. Mazda also offers a few items to dress up the convertible's looks. There's a choice of a black or body color rear lip spoiler for $350, and Soul Red Metallic paint adds $300. For protection, clear film for the front and rear paint is $125, all-weather floor mats go for $90, and wheel locks cost $55. Finally, a cargo net is $50. We ticked every applicable box on the Club trim above to make its $28,600 base price leap to $33,790, after the $820 destination charge on all models. Happy building. Related Video:
Autoblog fan favorite car ads from Super Bowl XLIX
Mon, Feb 2 2015Super Bowl XLIX is in the books, and the New England Patriots emerged victorious. Of course, if you're like us, the big game wasn't so much about the battle between the east coast and west, so much as a fight between the world's automotive advertisers. We collected and collated all of last night's new ads and put them together for you to vote on. And yes, we're limiting this year's contest to last night's new features. That's why you aren't seeing Dodge's epic Wisdom among our collection of commercials, and it's a similar story with Chevrolet's Truck Guy Focus Group series, which highlights the new Colorado. You can still vote for your favorites. We won't be closing the voting on our Super Bowl page, so while the winners and losers are correct as of this writing, it's entirely possible that there could be some changes in the rankings as time goes on. So, without any further ado, here are the winning ads based on your voting. Nissan: With Dad Fiat: Ready For Action Jeep: Beautiful Lands BMW: Newfangled Idea Mercedes-Benz: Fable NASCAR: America Start Your Engines As for those ads that failed to impact you, loyal readers, Toyota was the absolute, undisputed loser. The Japanese brand ran four ads in total – two for Toyota and two for Lexus – and all of them have negative tallies as of this writing. Lexus' Make Some Noise and Lets Play and Toyota's One Bold Choice and My Bold Dad both had very weak showings among the commercials that aired, although they weren't alone. Neither Mazda nor Kia scored particularly well, despite featuring celebrity magic act Penn and Teller and former James Bond, Pierce Brosnan, respectively. Chevrolet was the winner of the losers, as of our writing, recording the fewest downvotes for its audience-punking The Big Game ad. If you want to take a second look at the losing ads, you can head back to our Super Bowl page for the complete collection. But for now, head into Comments and let us know what you think of the results.
