First before I start....I LOVE Hondas!!! However, I'm in the same dilemna.

I've driven both cars and in my opinion, the Protege5 is a very awesome car for the money. What I now am waiting for next year is the likely release of the Civic Hatchback Hybrid.

Go drive the Protege 5 and you'll be surprised.

I haven't driven the Protege5 but I must admit it is a great looking car. Remember though, often times parts from Ford make their way in to Mazdas. Something to consider...

Buy the Civic, Honda will be releasing a version that runs off of a similar setup as the Insight, it will be gas / electric Perfect for a daily driver and cheap on gas!

You must keep in mind that the Protege5, althought it looks really cool, Mazda is owned by Ford, and it is just another piss-poor quality Ford car with a different badge on it

Is this a trick question or something? You know the answer or are you asking for the answer? I would venture to say none, but I may be wrong...
