Trust me stay with the mazda... Dont go VW.... or at least Ford.. lol probably the same 2.0 thats in the protege thats in the ZX3...
Unless Ford ganked it from Mazda, that's unlikely. The 2.0 in the Protege is the FS motor, and it has been used in a few Mazdas since 1993. Check this site: http://members.aol.com/solomiata/MX5Engine.html for a table of Mazda 4 cylinder engines and the cars they've been used in.

I know a guy selling a sweet *** one that is dark blue for 18 Grand! With like 30,xxx miles on it. All kinds of steeda **** on it and he takes damn good care of it!!!

Asses- he has to buy a new car that he can afford the insurance on, he isnt getting a $20,000 check from his grandpappy to spend as he pleases, now if he was getting a check for $20,000, that would change EVERYTHING!

my grandparents just decided that they shouldnt be cheap ****** anymore. so theyre going to buy me a new car. ive got a 20g limit
I think with a stmt like that all you should get is a swift kick in the ***. why does everything have to be given to you? Be a man and earn it and i dont want to hear about school and **** like that. I know a lot of people that earn thier own stuff while in school.



And dont get me wrong its not the fact that your getting money, its the attitude that you feel like if they dont give you a $20K car they are cheap ******.



They need to give your *** a bicycle so you can get your *** up to a job.



Dont go off saying I'm jealous either, my parants could have given me anything I wanted (and still could) but I choose to work for what I get and always have. It just kills me to think people feel like they are due so much in life
