After driving most of the current crop of CUV's, I decided that...I really liked the overall drive and utility of my previous Mazda 5 just as well, if not better. So: I did a Midwest search for a clean, one-owner 2012+ 5GT, found one, and brought it home over the weekend. I'll be adding a few...

Proud owner of a 2015 Mazda6 GS. My 2002 Nissan Altima was toast after only 137,000 kms (85,000 miles). When looking for a new car, I wanted something that looked good, was full sized, had excellent fuel mileage, and had a manual tranny. The manual was nearly impossible to find in the class...

Well I said goodbye my little economizer '97 Civic HF and entered the modern era. I test drove a number of 2014 M3's and 2015 cars before finding the perfect Fit (oops former Honda owners say things like that)! Purchased under the Costco program it seemed the savings were surprisingly good on...

Hello forum, I'm considering buying a used 2006 Mazda5 Sport with ~76,000 miles and manual transmission. I've browsed the forums to get an idea of issues to look for. It seems that tires and tire wear are concerns. Are there other potential issues that I should look for as I consider buying...

Hi all! A few months ago we bought a 2008 CX-9 Grand Touring and we really love it. Just took it on a 2 week road trip from Delaware to Texas and it drove like a dream. Looking ahead, we're thinking about a late fall vacation on which I'd like to be able to take our bicycles, but the really...

Hello all, Just bought my '08 Mazda5 on 6/21/12 and loving it. Used to own a 2001 Pontiac Grand Am GT that I put much love sweat and tears into but had to sell it so I could get a vehicle to fit my DJ equipment into and thus the Mazda came to be.
