I think they must be testing the waters with a more conservative setup, but from what i hear, it should be easily upgradable...

how much you think the new mazdaspeed protege is gonna cost? around 20,000 perhaps? i wanna buy one. :bigok:
For the amount of options it has I'd say 20,000-23,000 USD.What a sweet sleeper platform to start on tho.Rape a 5.0 and still get the ice cream home COLD.

That car gives me wood. I swear to god, if I absolutely had to give up my GTU for that thing, I would not be sorry one bit.

I've got an MP5 and it NEEDS an extra 70HP.

the turbo upgrades to ~175HP a 45HP increase=weak.



after some mods then it should by alright :wiggle:
