We need an unobstructed view . . . preferably one that shows the headlights and/or taillamps Is there a reason why you need to identify this particular car . . . ? ---

Yeah, that’s a tough one, just have a little bit of the front turn signal. I’m surprised it doesn’t ring a bell with me. ---

Good luck. That generation Protégé was built from 1998-2003: > **[Mazda Familia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mazda_Familia#Eighth_generation_(BJ;_1998%E2%80%932003))** > > The Mazda Familia, also marketed prominently as the Mazda 323 and Mazda Protegé, is a small family car that was manufactured by Mazda between 1963 and 2003.

The rear passenger window looks different from the Protégé photo. That little triangle segment appears to be missing. It definitely looks like a steel wheel econobox, so Civic, Corolla, Sentra, 626, etc. from the 1990’s to early 2000’s I expect. ---

It might be best just to post the picture . Trying to say what this vehicle is without actually looking at it might cause more problems than your association needs . Put in your news letter that locking outside parked vehicles and not leaving garage doors open because possible casing has taken place. ---

Thieves are parasites No redeeming qualities whatsoever Not worthy of life No useful purpose It would be cool if somebody caught him in the act and beat him within an inch of his life 😈
