The ITR no longer king?
From this month's (October) issue of SCC.
"Because of the Mazda's massive grip, mild manners and performance potential from it's turbocharged engine, this car is our new benchmark for production carfront-drive performance. That's right, it has knocked the old Acura Integra Type R off the mountain.
Fact is, the MazdaSpeed Protege is probably faster up our favorite mountain than a Type R, which is the ultimate litmus test for usable speed. We know it's faster through the slalom. At 72 mph, it's the fastes production car we've tested....."
Okay fellas....let the flaming begin.
I wanna know what you guys think. Especially if you have had a chance to read the article. To me, this car sounds pretty damn impressive.
