Fun to drive, but the engine sucks. I got to fool around with one once right before I got canned at Nissan of Vacaville. Also, the motor is really no better than an off-the-shelf turbo kit on a stock Protege. It's essentially just remapped fuel and ignition with an RRFPR. :/ Same as the Mazdaspeed Miata. But, the Protege is a great car, for a pre-2000 FWD chassis. Good handling dynamics, good reliabilty overall. But you can get an RS for the same money...
