I just got passed on the way home tonight like I was standing still by what looked like a Protege with a funny oval looking wing on the back. I was driving on I-10 at about 90 and he wizzed by like a jet. Is there a Protege out capable of this or do you guys think it might have been modded?

Mazdaspeed Protege most likely, topspeed of 131 (governed).

 

Well lets say I think he was going upwards of 137. It was blue I don't know if they made a mazdaspeed in blue. I have always seen them in orange.

 

I know the 2003.5 came in blue, and how could you tell he was going 137, that's a really odd number to come up with on something you seemingly could only take a guess at... Plus, there may be a way to eliminate the governor or avoid it, and some cars seem to be stated as governed but really aren't.

 

I do not want to incriminate myself.. I was more curious how that car could go that fast. Yes I found the car on the web. It was indeed a 2003.5 Protege. It seems to be a brick more or less

 

Keep in mind it's a turbo, so not all that tough to make faster pretty easily and for not much money.
