CONS: ugly. claustrophobic. No power

REVIEW: I looked at the Madza 5 twice. I took it on the freeway to test it. The ride was very bumpy. I floored the pedal and the engine transmission hesitated. It excellerated very slowly. The engine sounded stressed out. The engine is very much underpowered for the car. Looking close, the exterior and ...

REVIEW: This is a great car has good handling pretty comfortable, and it comes with a stick shift so it feels sort of like a sports car ...

CONS: Obviously not designed for Americans, too small for anyone over 5.5

REVIEW: This car is cure and has nice low low grunt for getting off the line. It handles well and is over all a nice car for the money. The problem is, it made for japanese. My family is all 1-2 inches about the average American and slim, se felt like we were in a little clown car that got shrunk in the ...

CONS: If seats could be slightly wider, no other complaints yet

REVIEW: Due to rising gas $, we traded in the beloved minivan for a 2006 Chevy Aveo that had an auto trans but no other power options. Sad to have lost the room and creature comforts of the minivan, and not impressed with the Aveo's avg 26 city, 36hwy mpg, we decided we should look for something else. ...

CONS: alittle wider

REVIEW: I am in love with this car!! I didn't like the style at first. My husband was the one to change my mind. I wanted a car with lots of room and good on gas. We are a small family and this car is perfect!!! The only down fall is our stroller doesn't fit properly. It has to go on an angle. Your ...

CONS: wiper controls a bit confusing

REVIEW: Would buy this car again. Had Jeep Liberty before this and Mazda5 carries more cargo and gets 10 more miles to the gallon. Of course I don't have 4 wheel drive anymore but I used it 4 times in 3 years. This car works great if you only have 1 vehicle. Hauls a lot more than you think and works ...

CONS: Some road noise, wish I had better speakers

REVIEW: We bought this car to replace our '96 Explorer and we are thrilled with it. It is so responsive and nimble, I feel quite confident on the road even when surrounded by big clanking SUVs. Definitely has the Mazda feel going around curves, really hugs the road. I cannot say enough about the ...

CONS: Steep rake on hood results in stone chips....

REVIEW: I packed four adult males in this NANO-van it for a golf trip. No complaints from the backseat - except for the lost golf match! Mileage with cruise at 70 mph is an astounding 32 mpg highway. Get 23 in pure city and 28 mixed. I love this car so much the wife suggested we buy another Mazda, this ...

CONS: Front seat lumbar adjustment are quirky.

REVIEW: Came from MPV, Mazda5 is smaller but still as useful as the MPV. 6 seats at this compact size, can't beat that. I love to drive fast... umm, responsible fast and I know it is not a sports car but I love sports cars and surprisingly this mazda can handle some spirited driving. Mine is the 5 ...

CONS: air!

REVIEW: We traded a Saturn Vue in to get more room for our growing family. Teens and a little guy were getting too big to squish in to our Vue for annual family road trips. Honestly, my choice was a bit smaller Mazda- the RX 8 has been a favorite of mine since it was introduced all those years ago! but, ...
