Brother it's your first car. Only thing I can roast is that beige color and the fact u didn't have daddies money for a Lambo or something idk. Don't cut up in it it's not a supra, don't overly speed, don't get too many tickets, and be safe
Yeah, these steering wheels are meant to be used with a full racing seat/harness. Your head will bounce off this thing and youāll be playing poker and smoking winstons with Cash and Cobain.
The only thing i can roast is the color- boring as all hell. Otherwise for a first car, solid choice. Take care of her and don't neglect basic maintenance.
That steering wheel, however, was a whole different choice..... god almighty change that asap.
Why do y'all come on here with your first car? Enjoy it for God's sake. I drove a turd for my first car. I loved it like family.
Get on in life, get jaded, THEN post your car on here and get torched. It'll hit differently.
The only thing good about this piece of shit is that it seems to have been designed by some guy at Mazda who saw the back half of a Saturn SL2 and thought that was good inspiration for their next car.
This was my first car too. 1996 Protege DX with a 1.5L and 5-speed manual transmission. At least yours is a year or two newer and slightly more powerful. It looks like the 1.8L engine version.
I bought my protege for $1900 with 121,000 miles on the odometer. I drove that car hard for 8 years. I used it as a pizza delivery vehicle and I used it to commute to highschool, college, and my first job after college.
I sold it for $1350 at 170,000 miles. It was such a reliable car and so affordable to maintain. It made me later buy a Mazda2 which had similar power and weight, and then a Mazda Miata.
I want to roast it, but this Mazda is better than current Mazdas. This is rare for me to say in this sub, but thatās actually good purchase. Just ugly as sin.
So let me get this straight. You bought a car based entirely on the fact that it wasnāt sold in America and is right-hand drive. This is the biggest waste of money I have ever seen. Youāre better off moving to Japan at this point.
Yeah no shit it was prompted. Congratulations, Sherlock. You cracked the case. You're truly a genius. Next youāre gonna tell us water is wet and that the sun comes up in the morning. Truly groundbreaking observational skills on display.
Man really logged onto r/RoastMyCar, saw a well written roast, and thought āAh yes, this is where I demonstrate my advanced ability to recognize obvious things.ā Peak contribution. Absolute pillar of the community.
Also wild how you called the car a shitbox like that isnāt the entire point of the subreddit. Thatās not roasting, thatās just parroting the sign on the door and acting like you invented sarcasm. You didnāt roast the car, you roasted the concept of participation.
The funniest part is you somehow managed to be more boring than a beige 1998 Mazda 323. At least the car actually shows up and does its job. You just showed up, stated the obvious, and left thinking you cooked.
But hey, keep it up. Every thread needs that one guy whose whole personality is āwell actually.ā
What's the point of the fancy rims, the exclusive steering wheel, and the silver knob if you bought the most boring Mazda ever made?
Those wheels are not fancy lol
Fancy for the sort of person who buys this car.
Fancy rims? Are we looking at the same picture lol
If those are fancy, then basic stamped wheels should be considered fancy too
Wouldn't consider this fancy or exclusive tbh š

To a kid, any car is a Ferrari. Heās gonna be slicing and dicing regardless of what people tell him š
Hell yea. I loved my dad's Grand Prix š thought I was in a damn dodge stealth type car
The driver airbag was its only redeeming feature. Now your survival chances are literally 0%.
Iād be lucky to get it up to a speed thatās anywhere near dangerous. Airbags are the least of my worry
You'll be dead at 50kph, don't worry.
depend on the steering wheel, arent some momo design to buckle so you dont actually crack your skull?
Still dead.
Yeah, these steering wheels are meant to be used with a full racing seat/harness. Your head will bounce off this thing and youāll be playing poker and smoking winstons with Cash and Cobain.
Airbags are for chumps
Itās theftproof ā not because of the manual, because who the hell is gonna bother?
the worst that can happen is someone gets in to take a dump
Wow, I havenāt seen a daewoo in a long timeš
Pre-tty sure that ain't a Daewoo.

Looks like one to meš
Holy shit, 1996 Anteras rims knock-offs said just keep them.
A racing steering wheel in a Mazda ProtƩgƩ is the funniest thing ive seen in a while. Atleast its a manual, but its a econo box commuter now with less safety features, enjoy.
The pinstripe in daytime hooker rouge saves this car.
The only thing i can roast is the color- boring as all hell. Otherwise for a first car, solid choice. Take care of her and don't neglect basic maintenance.

It'll never be a race car no matter how many times you burn your hand on your "tactical" shift knob
No wonder it's a manual. Even any type of disability accessible mobility would breeze past this.
with those wheels, basically a 4 door Viper.

Those wheels and steering wheel scream: I am trying to be Viper's little cousin, 'Ring Worm'
Ay it's your first car. Just don't do stupid shit while driving and don't mod it with too many autozone parts and you are good
As long as its structurally solid & maintained Properly its a Great First Car!!
Great choice! straight, clean, easy to fix and easier to learn to fix yourself! limited computer integration, you hit it for 6.
BTW? that profile and color will spare you a ton of unwarranted police attention, yet its nice enough looking.
I want it.
And you bought this ācarā from David Hasselhoff?
The regret will come on its own in time
Why do y'all come on here with your first car? Enjoy it for God's sake. I drove a turd for my first car. I loved it like family. Get on in life, get jaded, THEN post your car on here and get torched. It'll hit differently.
My mate, your car is cool alright.Ā I like the three spoke wheels, the shift know and all that.Ā Enjoy your rideš¤š«¶š
You can sell your car for gas money and save for a real car like a Mercedes
The only thing good about this piece of shit is that it seems to have been designed by some guy at Mazda who saw the back half of a Saturn SL2 and thought that was good inspiration for their next car.
I hate to tell you this, but it must be a factory defect. The steering wheel is on the wrong side.....
/s
If it wasnāt a manual I could.
What the fuck is it?
Itās not a car Iād go for but damn itās clean for its age and tastefully modded not over the top good work mate
This was my first car too. 1996 Protege DX with a 1.5L and 5-speed manual transmission. At least yours is a year or two newer and slightly more powerful. It looks like the 1.8L engine version.

What a piece of crap! The steering wheel is on the wrong side!
This could almost pass for a stock lancer with those mud flaps.
I want to roast it, but this Mazda is better than current Mazdas. This is rare for me to say in this sub, but thatās actually good purchase. Just ugly as sin.
Stale white bread is more exciting...
Thatās not a car, itās a pair of beige slacks with elasticated waist.
You fool! The steering wheel is on the bloody wrong side
So you bought a basic bitch nissan but the basic Japanese bitch version.
can't go through the drive-through looking ahh car ššš„ (67)
One of our worst nightmare scenarios here is the US is an Englishman waking up drunk and forgetting what side of the road hes's supposed to drive on.
Mazda has strong racing heritage, but not in a 323.
I hope you didnāt pay extra for the āone of a kind racing wheelā Iām surprised you arenāt regretting even looking at this thing.
It's beige.
So let me get this straight. You bought a car based entirely on the fact that it wasnāt sold in America and is right-hand drive. This is the biggest waste of money I have ever seen. Youāre better off moving to Japan at this point.
Overglorified Mailman fr
Somebody put the steering wheel on the wrong side
[removed]
I feel attacked.
But my Speed6 is a dream.
My Miata and my CX-3 say hi.
Both our 3s say hi back. We're on our sixth Mazda.
Mental illness runs in the family, huh?
If you donāt have something mean to say, donāt say anything at all.
You get ONE warning, then we ban.
Sweet. I remember when I was in middle school, the popular kid drove a Mazda just like that.

Seems like you prompted ChatGPT for a roast which is almost as bad as buying this shitbox
Yeah no shit it was prompted. Congratulations, Sherlock. You cracked the case. You're truly a genius. Next youāre gonna tell us water is wet and that the sun comes up in the morning. Truly groundbreaking observational skills on display.
