Loaded, great features like fold away third row seats, lowering rear windows, great sound system, and all with great fuel efficiency and impeccable styling.

I knew when we bought the MPV that it was not going to be a high performance vehicle. It does just fine on the coastal plains of NC but the mountains of VA and WV are a challenge for its little Ford-build 2.5 litre engine. Otherwise the MPV is a quality car and is reliable. It is very comfortable - you can drive 500 miles without tiring. It is a nice car but it doesn't compare to the Honda or Toyota in value (it's a lot smaller). I think the MPV's MSRP is about $2,500 too high. Mazda's end-of-year rebates on the MPV make it competitive and I'm thinking about buying a 2004 model.

I think that Mazda has made an excellent minivan. My only problems with it were minor sample defects that the dealer fixed satisfactorily. I think that it has appropriate power, but I wish it would get better mileage. (It is a trade-off!)

Our second MPV used from dealer; wanted to fit two teenage boys, string bass, stroller and baby-seat. With spit seats in second row and roll away third seat, it's very versitile! Feels more like a sedan than a van. Runs great in town, but sluggish when loaded for a mountain vacation. We've had absolutey no mecahnical problems, now with 40k miles and always 21 mpg.Thought we'd miss the older car door style rear door at first, but find the sliding nice for parking lots. We do wish there were side door pockets and storage spots for all those children things. Can't even hear the engine at idle! Love the new design and plan on another one next time around.

Not a bad van

No major problems in nearly three years. Dealer service is good. The MPV is not a street racer but it gets around OK in the flatlands of the southeast. Gas mileage is not that good.
