How much to offer for 2008 Mazda5 GT?

Written by: velouria on Jul 20, 2008 05:50 PM

We spent way too long at the Mazda dealership today. Salesperson said the MSRP was $23,165 and wanted us to make him an offer but, after 3 hours, the kids had grown very grumpy and it was time to get lunch and naps. Salesperson said they wanted to get rid of the car (to make room for the incoming 2009s) so they'd give us a good deal. My husband will probably call tomorrow ... Read More...

Mazda5: No Traction/ Stability Control. Is this an issue?

C'mon MAZDA!..It is really simple..... New baby arriving in 2 months; If the 2009 model year Mazda 5 has Stability Control, then we are buying one, possibly TWO-- as soon as the 09's are released. BUT ONLY w/Stability Control. If no ESC, sorry Mazda but we go with Kia Rondo or Toyota RAV4. You have the software/hardware application from the Euro Mazda 5.... make ... Read More...

2009 Mazda5

Mazda5 Speed edition LOL, would be great, but no. Mazda NA is running the Mazda5 message as economical, great family hauler and without sacrificing handling and fun-to-drive. A turbo engine like the ones for the MazdaSpeed3 or MazdaSpeed6 will bring the MPG really down plus may not be a good seller for such a small market niche. It might be more attractive to sell ...

2009 Mazda5

Written by: ptien_va on May 12, 2008 06:20 AM

Okay, can we get the focus back on the entire 2009 Mazda5 and not just the possible power sliding doors? Any one get any leaked info yet? I contacted Mazda and they said they have no information they can release to the public. Grrrrr! My fear is I buy the 2008 5 and then three months later they announce the bigger/better specs for the 2009 model and a Mazda5 Speed edition. Read More...

Thanks for the Zafira tip :D. Yeah only the Rondo and the Mazda5 are around here so far. This article comments caught my eye: It’s the same approach used for the only other such vehicles on the American scene, the Mazda 5 and Kia Rondo, each a five-seater. However, we suspect final pricing will be somewhat lower and maybe sweetened with incentives, this to match ... Read More...

Here's where I spotted the Zafira info: http://consumerguideauto.howstuffworks.com/2010-chevrolet-zafira.htm As for the power doors I've seen them mentioned a few places as well. http://horisly.blogspot.com/2007/12/bologna-motor-show-2008-mazda5-facelift.html- http://www.auto-power-girl.com/cars-2009/mazda-specifications/mazda5-2308 ...

Is it confirmed that the Zafira is coming? Thaaat is a sweet ride. Seen it in Europe, it is just great. funny thing it does not have sliding doors, which is a big plus on the Mazda5 IMO. 2008s are selling well w/o marketing so I'm almost sure the 2009 will make it here. As per power doors, the standard ones are so light I doubt they will have them, also, Mazda will be doing ... Read More...

Rondo vs Outlander/Rav4/Santa Fe/Mazda5

Re: Rondo/Mazda5 [coolmazda5]

Written by: taz16 on Oct 15, 2007 05:08 PM

Yes I agree with CoolMazda5 there are in the same category just like the Chevy HHR and the aging PT Cruiser(which can you believe has been in the same generation for 7 yrs now and probably wont be resigned until 09 or 2010!!!) and then by the way lets not the forget the Toyota Matrix/Pontiac Vibe which basically are the same cars.(They are getting resigned next yr. ...
