I have to say the reason why I purchased this car is because of the "zoom zoom" factor. This is the ONLY minivan on the market that drives like a good sport sedan. it is just the right size, brakes with the best of them, has reasonable power and get s great gas mileage. We trded our Subie Outback which has zero driving character, bulky shifter and mushy brakes. Not too mention not much room inside...so on the contrary, the Mazda5 does indeed generate enthusiasm amongst true drivers.

yeah, i was thinking the same thing. Why is autoblog ragging on the Mazda5? Mazda built a vehicle that can move more than 5 people in a package small enough to be fun. Certainly more "zoom-zoom" than their CX-9 boat.

They're saying that because it doesn't sell - but you're correct, it's a fine people-mover, and sells very well in Quebec.
