2007 5 GT "thing 5"
Im finally picking up my 5 tomorrow...black GT, few mods planned...basic lip kit, wheels, HID, etc.

great ride tho...I love it...im trading my cadillac CTS in on it.
 
Are you Canadian? If you're American, the GT already comes with HID. And holy crap, what's the deal with the move from a CTS to a 5?!


Regardless, congrats and enjoy the experience!!! (flash)
 
It might be the gas prices! (cheers), but anyway Congrats on your Mazda5!!!!! Oops(hand)

Damn, for sure is because the Caddy CTS does not have sliding doors nor 5MT... ROTFL, sorry, I couldn't help it :D.

Seriously, I agree with Jandree, whatever the case is, this deserves for Mazda (or Cadillac?) to give a huge freebie to Kojack (thumb)
 
5 is it

Hilarious....CONGARTS! I've never seen it mispelled that way. That's right up there with "You just got pwned" (for you gamers).

The Mazda 5 is definitely trading up! Gas mileage is a huge issue now that gas is $4 in San Francisco. I swear if this were an electric car, I think I'd have a smile on my face all day long.

By the way, go rent "Who Killed The Electric Car?" Then go write your congress-person.
 
The reason i got rid of the caddy is beause there is zero room in the back for the kids, plus, I was trying to kid myself into thinking GM could make a car. The Cadillac was so bad inside i thought I was driving a caviler from the 90s. and coming from the VW it was a real step backwards....and yes, if Mazda wants to give me something for trading an inferior vehicle in for a better built one, I will take a set of wheels, and the front and rear lip I want for the ride!

And no its not the gas prices. My other ride is a F150 5.4l and i put 2000kms a week on it. gas is a non issue. he he. and i am in canada so no HIDS for me. but 100 bucks from ebay fixes that
 
Im reluctant to talk $hit on GM as my Dads been a Chevy service manager for years and years, but youre right. I drive my moms Equinox (vague steering, harsh engine, cheap materials all around) and my mother-in-laws Trailblazer (MUSHY, land barge suspension), and suddenly when I come back to my 5 it makes it feel like a finely engineered exotic sports car (lol2)

Thankfully my moms Equinox lease is up next month, and I talked her into a new Camry SE.
 
jandree,

as far as im conserned mazda is the best "japanese" compnay going now...making cars with soul. the japanese BMW if you will. I am after owning everything under the sun, honda/acura, subaru, ford, Caddy, vw, dodge, mercedes, jaguar....and really, the mazda line rates with the german cars for refinement etc. Now, the merc is my fav. but the 5 is awsome as it serves my purpose of a family hauler with soul. not a bland, boring minivan.
