#1172 of 1354 That's great! by f14tomcat Aug 03, 2007 (5:46 pm)
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.

Replying to: chikoo (Aug 03, 2007 1:19 pm) 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. Replies to this message: coolmazda5 (Aug 05, 2007 7:07 am)
#1174 of 1354 Built in Japan. by f14tomcat Aug 05, 2007 (5:22 am)
The Mazda5 is built in Japan according to all of my references and also according to the sticker on the one we looked at.

Replying to: jaxs1 (Aug 04, 2007 8:32 pm) Yes, the Mazda5 is built in Japan.   Here is an old site with some data I saw once: http://media.ford.com/mazda/article_display.cfm?article_id=21731
#1176 of 1354 Re: how strong is the air conditioning? [goatrope] by jaxs1 Aug 05, 2007 (9:40 am)
Replying to: goatrope (Apr 15, 2006 3:09 pm) 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.

Replying to: d_hyper (Aug 03, 2007 11:40 am) I'm not sure where you get 800 units/month. Mazda's July sales report shows 9,265 for the year to date total.

Replying to: maltb (Aug 06, 2007 7:53 am) 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.

#1179 of 1354 I agree... by f14tomcat Aug 08, 2007 (12:46 pm)
I thought 800 units/month was a little low. Those figures seem a little more resonable.

Replying to: d_hyper (Aug 06, 2007 9:44 am) 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. Replies to this message: maltb (Aug 09, 2007 9:51 am) coolmazda5 (Aug 12, 2007 6:46 am) castg1 (Aug 15, 2007 9:51 am)

Replying to: kivo (Aug 09, 2007 6:08 am) You haven't and Mazda said they wouldn't. initial releases of the car said Mazda was planning on low volumes so I don't think anyone there is very worried. If the niche catches on, at least they have a foot in the segment.
