Mazda5 Mexico. Completing The NAFTA View

[coolmazda5]

. Pretty much the same car as the US and Canada, just some comments:

They get:
- Sport
- Touring
- 16in wheels for all. 17in are an option it seems
- 2nd row A/C, but only for the Touring
- Auto A/C, but only for the Touring

They don't get:
- Grand Touring
- Fog lights as an option on the Sport
- 7th, Karakuri Seat (I initially thought they did)

The main thing here is the comparison. They compare with:
- Mitsubishi Grandis
- Renault Scenic II
- Chevrolet Zafira

The Scenic looks too small though (scratch)

Oh, and I forgot, No popular package for the Sport...

Hmmm, Rojo Clasico available in Ecuador, nice.

I remember that my Venezuelan buddy grinned obnoxiously when I got my 2nd Mazda5 (he did not want to offend me by calling me "freak" but...). During the holidays he went back home and one day he SMS me: "Hey those cars like yours sell like crazy here, seen many and I'm just behind one right now"...

I just replied: "Cool, so Venezuelans are smarter than they look then" (lol2)
