I had no idea how compact the Mazda5 was until I parked next to one with a mere Corolla hatchback.
All hail the Mazda5!

Hail indeed! Those things are a freaking TARDIS. If they just had enough demand to upgrade the interiors and styling with the rest of their line up, I’d like to think they’d have a resurgence in the market.

I didn’t snap a pic, but apparently a Honda Fit is almost as big as an XJ Cherokee.

Precisely. I’m not exactly a small guy. Because of the width I can’t use the armrest on the drivers seat and instead use the one on the passenger chair. But I don’t really care - the size feels just right. I’m there to drive , not stretch out like I’m in my living room.

I would love a first gen as a 2nd car since I’m stuck with my NC for a few years, but being relatively new they’re just too expensive, maybe someday. I do really want some kind of van, that’s most of craigslisting these days, although I can’t afford anything at all ATM so I guess the price difference doesn’t really matter.

yep, basically a tall 3 wagon - like a Rondo, Mitsubishi or Ford C-Max. Not a speed demon but fun, and super useful. It’s too bad that segment just has been obliterated in the states.

So which one is a minivan?
Actually the Mazda 5 is 4” longer and 1" wider than a Type 2 Kombi. Longer wheelbase too.

WTF is a Corolla Hatch—— Oh, I see what you did there...

Nah, (although USB ports would be nice) what it needs is the skyactiv-g with the 6 speed. 30+mpg highway would be amazeballs.

I approve this message. Now to find the GT LED tail lights.

That would be great, although it wouldn’t be enough on its own to sell it in our truck laden market.
