Hyundai has one too, I think it's the elantra5. Hmmm. Maybe 5 refers to 5 doors? and if that IS the case, don't MOST 5 doors look kinda similar to each other??

If you think at the above you have mentioned looks like our P5, go get yourself inside one of those and take a look at their center console, you will be even more pissed.

lol, the next upcoming MAzda5 is a MPV/Minivan.

 

[snooky]

man the center consol is nice but i like our carbon fiber finish better.

welcome to last month.

ok so i took the 360' tour and let me tell u this car looks nothing like ours, it just has similar features but overall its fat, suspension is really high, and the rims are freakin ugly. it does have a nice interior, and i wouldnt mind starting stock with 140hp but i know i can beat that car, it looks way heavier than ours.

 

[Metal MP5]

same engine as the aerio i think. 140hp 2liter ... the aerio had AWD as an option too i think ? pictures were posted on here a while ago

 

[ZoomZoomH]

i don't think kia sources suzuki engines, if anything, they source engines from *gasp* Mazda or develops in-house...

 

[VPower]

it's similar...but there's no way I can say the spectra5 is nice

 

[Metal MP5]

s*** i mixed them up sorry

for some reason i kept thinking suzuki

dont they have a 5door car too ?

 

[Protege52003]

my girl friend said that it looked like my car.....pissed me off.

Kia is a subsidiary of Hyundai -- it's their "value" line.

Get used to the 5 door phenomenon. Mazda was the leader, and there will be plenty of followers.

 

[ZoomZoomH]

VW has been doing the 5 door Golf stuff for years, mazda just brought it back into the spotlight and made it 'cool' again to own a *hatchback*

 

[Natey]

I think it's smart of them to pick up where Mazda so foolishly left off. I'll bet they sell a s***-load of those little wagons.

 

[Metal MP5]

value line of Hyundai ... godthat sounds horrible

Zoom...yeah you gotta point. But I consider the P5 more of a wagon than a hatch. I should have said Mazda started the "roomy" hatchback trend!
Golf's are pretty small....

 

[mcstark]

Natey...Mazda didn't stop, just picked up with the 3. Although I think they also moved the price upmarket a bit.

Metal...Hyundai is really moving upmarket. Their reliability has really come around and people are really starting to embrace their cars. Hyundai is just trying to hold on to their roots by selling Kia's based on their price.

 

[Natey]

Oh, they stopped alright. We can already get a Matrix/Vibe/mini-minivan at several different dealerships. No one makes a low-slung good handling(and looking) wagon for under 20,000 dollars...except Kia.
