    Has to be an LX(bp)
    Has to have a 5 speed


    and i kinda want it to me in my are so that i can test drive it and make sure its in good running order

    I just searched the whole country. There's thin pickings on 5 speed Protege LX's.

      It's simple. Pick a city you would be willing to vacation to for a couple of days. Fly there and have one of us members keep an eye out for one that's for sale just before you arrive. You then drive the car back home. I would gladly help you like that but Independence is very, very far from Miami.

                          Yeah but aluminum blocks can only take so much, cast blocks can take you so much farther, faster.

                          Getting the honda is like taking the easy way out.
