I like the Mazda product but when I drove the 5 I found it very plastic inside. The middle seats also sit quite low compared to most sedans. You might want to look at a Rondo if you want a "mini" minvan. And buy A/C.

Horrible fuel mileage for a small interior vehicle such as the 5.
Minivans and suvs get the same mileage. Rear seats for small people only.
A/C a must and Mazda's are pricey for parts. Reply With Quote

According to a post on another forum http://www.canadiandriver.com/forum/...c,52899.0.html, the 2008 Mazda 5 will be recieving a few changes for the US market vehicles. Whether they apply to Canada or are worth waiting for depends on your needs.

Test drove them a couple times when shopping for a minivan, and found them way underpowered yet used the almost the same gas as the bigger minivans. They were also very unstable/tippy-feeling under high speed evasive lane changes during our test.
Also, we didn't like the fact that you had to buy the premium model just to get the side airbags on what is clearly a family vehicle. Who's going to put their kids in the back without airbags? So with just the stuff you need, the price of this thing jumps from the advertised $19,995 to $30,000 out the door! We ended up just ponying up the extra $7k for a proper minivan with a real engine and vehicle stability control, plus not made by Ford/Mazda. Reply With Quote
