Mazda Awarded First Place in Auto Bild Magazine’s “Quality Report” for the Third Year Running
  
HIROSHIMA, Japan— Auto Bild, Germany’s largest car magazine, has ranked Mazda in first place in its highly respected “Quality Report” for 2007, which was published on June 8. This was the third straight year that Mazda has been awarded first place in this annual report.

Sounds like Mazda is keeping their quality up. I will say that the Mazda 5 we checked out was very refined. We went down the street to the Kia place to check out the Rondo and after I had compared the two, it just felt like Mazda put more time in their product then Kia did. Kia just felt tinny and 'cheap' I totally believe that Mazda is top quality.

This looks like it only applies to cars built in Japan. Is the Mazda5 built in Japan? I thought they were built in a US factory.

The Mazda5 is built in Japan according to all of my references and also according to the sticker on the one we looked at.

Yes, the Mazda5 is built in Japan.
 
Here is an old site with some data I saw once:

I read that the 2008 Mazda5 will have new rear seat vents to help with back seat cooling.
Does anyone know if there will be changes to the condenser and compressor to make the system more powerful? I'm not sure that just adding more vents without the system having the capacity to push more cold air will be a big help.
By the time the 2008's come out, the weather will be cool and no one will be able to give the A/C a sufficient test for effectiveness on their test drives.

I'm not sure where you get 800 units/month. Mazda's July sales report shows 9,265 for the year to date total.

Must have been preliminary numbers. 956 units last month,
half of the sales a year/month earlier. Rondo is definitely eating it's share instead of creating a new market with joint efforts.

I thought 800 units/month was a little low. Those figures seem a little more resonable.

Maybe if Mazda would advertise the car once in a while, sales would increase. I don't think I've ever seen an ad for the car on TV.
