Still loving my Mazda

Update: I've had my Mazda for 6 years now and I love it as much as I did when I got it. I've had to do normal maintenance on it: tires, brakes, shocks, etc. But it still runs beautifully and it now has about 120,000 miles on it. I really feel I can get another 5 years or more easily. The car's strength is definitely it's performance. It's a manual transmission and it accelerates well, it handles the curves well, it shifts well. It's a lot of fun to drive. The main issue would be the size and comfort, but it's what is expect with a small car. The front seats are comfortable for short rides, but for long rides I need a cushion. The rear seats also are comfortable but don't have a lot of room. The ride is a bit bumpy. The trunk is small. Mechanically, it's in solid shape and it still is fun to drive. Over 100,000 miles on it and I still don't have any trouble with it. I'm still loving my Mazda.

Purchased as a daily driver. Wanted something with a manual transmission without the anemic HP of a Civic or Corolla. The 2.5l I4 punches with 176HP. It's not blistering fast by any means but is comparably more spirited than others in its class. Good value and reliable for the money.
