The 2003 Protege5 only had about 31000 miles on it. It was not driven too much. But I think that trend will change with the new M5.

Mazda's College Grad Program/Rebate ended in it's last form in July of 2005.
There is no current Mazda College Grad Program/Rebate available at this time.

I did check with my local mazda dealer. Yes, mazda still has the $500 college discount, but the conditiones have been changed. You must be enrolled in college or graduate school to be qualified. You won't be qualified if you graduate even one day before you trigger the purchase.
I am not qualifed any more.

I am pretty sure. I did my test drive there and talked about the price. But I also found it is not available nationwide. Bay area in CA has it.

I never would have expected that this experience could have resulted in a POSITIVE buying experience given the terrible start. To make a long story short, after a few phone exchanges we agreed to give things a second shot. Coincidentally, the Stamford dealership just got in stock the exact vehicle spec/color that I wanted. Without my prompting, the dealer stepped up and proposed a price even lower than the Costco price (invoice+300) (when has this ever happened?). It may have been small gesture but made me feel that we were on the same page and I decided that I could live with the ordinary factory warranties, etc. as long as I could see and test the vehicle. I think both parties realized that we may have been, well childish, I guess is the word, and we thought it was better to try to make a deal that would keep make us both happy. After a brief review of the invoice and options (where he offered to reduce the price by another $40 without me asking because there was an option I didn't want), we closed the and I picked the car up the next day. My original salesman gave us the final demo, and was gracious and helpful to the end. I am certainly pleased with the vehicle and I am confident that I will continue to see good service from this dealership as long as I own the vehicle. If I can be turned around to give Stamford Mazda a POSITIVE recommendation, I think that says a lot about how much they value their customers and reputation. Good luck.

Looking for a fun family wagon

Just about to end a nightmare experience with a Ford Freestyle and saw a Mazda5 in the mall parking lot. We have 2 small children, dog and always seems to have alot of gear.
Can the 4 cylinder auto handle the family or is the best bet the manual? It seems to be roomy inside.....does it have room for 3 in the back seat if you have 2 child seats??
Any feedback is appreciated.......
