DOES THAT PROTEGE SAY 1600LBS?

 

I believe that's the correct weight.

 

That's gotta be a typo

Think about this: 1600 lbs?!

 

i know that thing doesn't weight 1600 lbs.

 

oops, your right - 2600lbs. The mazda 6 also has a 220hp engine (not 210)

 

only 170 on a turboed 4, comon can't they steal some tech from honda?

 

NO, YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT THE WEIGHT VS HP & torque ratios.

look at the torque vs torque numbers and you'll see the protege' 5 will beat any OEM civic in the straights. Plus the car is now ultra-tunable with a turbo and lower engine compression.

I'd imagine the twisties, slalom, and road courses the civic would seriously get beat.
