On the survey thing, we only received one after we bought the car. The salesman was also clear that he got a bonus of some sort if the responses particular to him were of a high level. I haven't received a survey since although the dealership always has the receptionist call a few days after every service to see if all is well.
Maybe once I will say no and see what happens next...Out of curiosity and because i'm a troublemaker.

I wonder if my Dad got a friendly customer service call about his experience with the dealership that day?

Good example.

The horror, the horror, the horror.....
When leather seating becomes available on the Pro 5, is it going to also be an option on the Pro sedan?
Dinu
I think I heard they're going to offer leather in the MS3. Not sure about the ES? Maltb, have you yawned into consciousness yet this morning?

(Sick mind today. Well everyday, but I rarely admit it).
the horror, the horror...the horrrrrrrrrrooooorrrr.
That doesn't mean I don't see reasons why OTHER people buy other cars.
Dinu...me thinks you got some splaining' ta do....later.
I don't like weird bundles like safety equipment with sunroofs. That's one that seems to occur frequently.
And I've still seen only TWO P5's.
and to refresh everyone's memory, the new MS Pro will have black mica and SPICY ORANGE as color choices....
personally the laser blue is the BEST color out of ALL proteges, IMO...

In my country, India, it is short for the name "Dinesh".
are u from India?
oh wait, I have a midnight blue mica 00 ES, hmm I wonder if that has anything to do with my preference(or is that bias?)
Pretty neat though.

I choose white because I thought it couldn't hurt to have the increased visibility...still not sure if there's any truth to that, or just wishful thinking on my part.
As I've said before, I was a little sorry once I started driving the thing around, because it seems like every other car on the road is also white...but at least I'll never be mistaken for a cab!
The PRO looks really good in black and I was going to get it in black or red, but the red they had last year was cherry-red, not fire engine red like I wanted. Black was my next choice but since my mom is paying for 1/2 of it, she said black is out, so that's where I left it. We compromisd on silver. I also considered white.
I have to say the blue MP3 looks goos. I wouldn;t get the Tropicana MS3 though.

And speaking of car nightmares, I dreamt I was driving a Lincoln LS. Luckily, I woke up.
I guess since Ford can't tout the Focus' reliability, they can always use the "lemming" argument. And they can't place the blame entirely on their suppliers. They specify how much they'll pay for components, which does dictate the quality and reliability of the parts. This is why Michelin and another tire manufacturer refused to bid on tires for the Explorer. They did not feel they could build a good tire for what Ford was willing to pay. Firestone did though, much to their regret, I'm sure.
See, all I had to do was spend over $40,000 at the dealership in 2 years (wife's MPV ES and my Pro) and you get a free bottle of touch-up paint.
You all better rush out and get in line for a Mazdaspeed Pro for the weekends' autocrosses!

recognition by paint color is a very powerful marketing tool. That's why the blue/yellow MP3 is so successful. People see that color and immediately recognize that it's not your run of the mill Proteges
There's your vicious flaming ;-)
If I bought a P5 my hands down choice would be Yellow. Too bad there was no 0% financing for the P5 back in Sept when I bought the sedan.
