2003.5 Mazdaspeed Protege *Buy a fun car for the kids!*
Shameless plug I know. Well, this is a HUGE long shot in the dark as this car is about 100 grand short of the normal listing on here, but car enthusiasts are car enthusiasts so I thought i'd give it a shot. Car would make an AWESOME track rat (it likes to beat up on porsches), or AutoX contender. Its certainly e-famous in the Mazda circles.

Add all that up, and its roughly 20k in up in mods not including installation. The car NEVER gets driven. I've put 131 miles on it in the past 13 months. Its got less miles than any other MSP for sale in the world, and thus, this is why i'm selling it. It never gets driven, and right now just isn't the time for me to keep this thing. Kept in storage, always meticulously detailed, Zaino'ed hardcore! I'm an **** retentive freak, no one has ever sat in the back seats, you are required to kick off your shoes before you get in, and there is a strict no food policy in effect.
Made 222hp, 255/tq on the tiny stock GT25 at around 12psi. This makes it the highest stock turbo'ed MSP in the world by a long shot. Block is good for 600hp. Throw a GT2871R on it and go boost 400hp. As it sits now it walks evo's and sti's, and stage 2 srt-4's like its its job.
It is a BLAST to drive, the handling is amazing for the car. I've had various track instructors compliment on just how balanced the car feels.
Bad Things Are:
Cracked Windshield
Standalone isn't fully tuned for cold start, needs to be re-tuned for max power.
One Rear tire has a slow leak (I just refill it once a week)
Anyway, I know its a shot in the dark, but I thought maybe someone might want
Asking 15k OBO.
Cheers folks!

The stock engine (which are notoriously weak with boost) snapped a rod 3 days after I purchased the car. Mazda wanted 7k for a new engine, so I said no thank you and bought a forged engine for 3k less.
