Mazda Protege Lx
<div class="IPBDescription">end of summer!!</div> This is sort of a continuation-of/addition-to my "Pontiac Vibe - Is It Worth It?" thread from a few weeks ago. To those who contributed suggestions, opinions, and reviews in that thread, I thank you all. They were very beneficial in my decision-making.
However, I've finally decided to get the Mazda Protege LX (<i>5-speed standard, of course</i>). <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
I'd love to be able to get the Vibe, but <span style='color:white'>1)</span> it's a tiny bit above my target price range, and <span style='color:white'>2)</span> it's damn hard to get one. There's only <b>one</b> Vibe available here (<i>and it's a f'ugly color</i>), plus it's generally a eight- to ten-week backorder to get one shipped. Ack! <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
I've still got to get my car shipped here from Ontario (<i>everything in stock locally is auto transmission</i>), but that'll only take about two weeks.
I'm sure some/most people here couldn't care less what car I get or even that I'm getting one. I'm just very pleased, and wanted to put a big thanks out to those here who helped me make my decision. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

Iam looking for Ford Sierra Cosworth, but there isn't any for sale here in Finland.
One friend bough Cosworth from Germany and I must say that it is pretty neat little machine. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
Oh well, I bought Cosworth's Turbo and Fuel Injector from his old Sierra and Iam going to put those in my Sierra. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
