Well, nothing too surprising there in the sense I expected a Mazda3 hatch with more carrying capacity anyway.

Still, very nice to hear Mazda continues to do well with this latest introduction.

I drove the 5 on the highway it took a while for it to pick-up but once I hit cruising speed the car was very quiet and the ride was smooth. I\'ve yet to try the 5spd.

I need to book an appointment to drive one in 5SPEED. I think with that engine size and output in N.A. 5speed will be the most optimum way to go, but the market will dictate AT for those young families. Manual should be that evil alter-ego for the sedate look and performance. This vehicle has me so damn curious now that my P5 lease will be up soon. I picture a ghetto pimp roller.

I\'m waiting and researching lowering springs, intake and exhaust for this new pimp mobile. I really need to do something creative with those rear tail lamps though.
