Strong engine and pretty fun to drive (220 hp V6). The transmission is a 5 speed auto with a manual shift mode. Personally, the auto is pretty sluggish to downshift on its own, so for spirited driving the manual mode is much better. Decent brakes and steering. A little heavy feeling around corners but not bad. Ofcourse, its a little hard to go from the spyder to the wagon...the wagon definately feels kinda wimpy after the spyder.

Good warranty and dealer network. The sportwagon has the larger wheels and nicer trim/bodywork. Worth a look.

I think the turning radius of a Mazda is about like a Ford truck. Maybe the Mazda 3 but then we might as well get the Audi A3
This is a challenge.
