The idea, obviously, was to keep cornering attitudes level, enhance transient responses, and boost
cornering speeds. Mission accomplished. The car changes directions as suddenly
as Marshall Faulk in an enemy secondary… -Car and Driver
The rail-like
cornering ability transitions to an ample dose of acceleration on the
straights. And with the addition of a limited-slip differential, the MazdaSpeed
can apply all of its power to the asphalt with little wheelspin. -Road and Track
And it's an absolute
blast on the right road. Find a curvy road in the Protegé, any curvy road, and
this car will change your perspective on front-wheel drive. This car instills
driver confidence unlike any other. Steering feel is impeccable and turn-in response
second nature. Its neutral-to-rear-biased-handling balance makes it faster over
most roads than cars with far more power. -Super Street Online
